Favorable accounts continued to be re*
ceived respecting the Greeks. Tlie fleet of
the Pacha of Egypt, consisting of'59 sail,
landed 6,000 men near Navaran ; but they
were repulsed and driven back to Moduli.—
A Greek fleet it was expected would attack
tlie Egyptians on the following day. These
successes had rendered the government of
Greece highly popular. Letters from tlie
Peloponnesus say, “ that the Peninsula is
over-run with English agents, and tlmt tlie
Greeks are confident of tho support ofEiig-
land. Tlie English considered the Greek
revolution as completed, and did nnt hesi

these poor wretches have no other clothing
than a sort of apron about tho middle ; they

are allowed a holiday, and are indulged

will briefly describe. It is about thc size
of a young steer, and lias five legs, seven
horns, and two tails, and runs sideways—
its flesh is very similar in taste to our ling—
it ia of a light colour, witii sky-blue spots.
These Racoons are sagacious animals—
they feed on oysters—and their modoofta-
king them is this : at low water they go a-
inong the beds and tickle the oysters with
their tail, the oyster opens the shell, seizes
the tail, arnnhen the Racoon pulls, not to
extricate itself from the grasp, bat to haul
l lie oyster from tho mud, which when done,
lie drags the oyster up high and dry, and
waits till tho heat of the sun causes the
shell to open—the Racoon then with very
little labor gets the contents out; in the
night, nr in cloudy weather, the Racoon ails
upon the oyter and causes him lu open by
incubation.
