4 CRETE. History of the Last Struggle of Christian and Turk. Events of the Present Revolt of the Gre.k Christians in Their Attempt to Throw Off the Mohammedan Rule. ae. &e. ke General View. The igaurrection im Candia, following 60 closely the great jopflict upon the European continent, has failed to Atiractthat attention in the United States which it de- sarves| It is evident now, as the facts come to light and the sigtificance of the struggle is understood, that this gallant }truggle for freedom is entitled to the sympathies of the civilized world. ‘The island of Crete, or Candia, since it came under the mination of the Turkish empire—two hundred years 4go—bas been the theatre of many bloody attempts on he part of the people to regain their ancient independ- ‘énoe or become united to Greece, the land of their an- destora, Although having a common patriotic desire fhat Crete should be xoverned by Cretans they have rather been goaded on to these revolts by the relentless ‘and insupportable oppression of the Turks themselves, whose system of continued cruelties has few paralle!s on record. The present uprising is another convulsive effort to shake off the yoke and be free. The insurrection which commenced in 1866 is now widespread over the island, and all classes have taken up arms to fight against the Turks, Numerous indeci- sive battles have occurred, and the condition of the island {s described as much the same as during the Greek revolution of 1821, both parties exhibiting bitter hate, And the Turks slaughtering without mercy, to wreak their vengeance. Men, women and children have fled from their towns to the mountains and strongholds, en- during great suffering, and even ending their own lives, rathpr than be borne away as the captives of the infidel Moslym. An intense feeling and sympathy is mai- fested in Greece for the Cretans, but the government it seif cannot render {ts willing aid, owing to the compli- cations of European politics, Many volunteers, bew ever, and some supplies have been safely con veyed through the Turkish blockade, and in s¢ coming apring there is every indication that ¢@ scenes of 1822-25 will be re-enacted, it is hoped With a different re. sult, In view of the possibilities of the struggle, we lay before our readera @ succiCt history of the events of this uprising. The Prosest Insurrection. ‘A PETITYN FOR REDRESS. In April, 1866, repr/sentatives from all parts ot the istand assembled at K/utgzounaria, about one hour's d's- tanoe from the city ¢ Canea, where the Governor General of the isiand and fofelgn consuls peside, In order to em- phasize the populg character of a movement for redress against the grieyances of Turkish rule, they were fol- lowed there by several thousands of unarmed people. ‘The Bishops of Sidonia and Kiasamos met with the repre- sentatives of the towns of Canea and Retimo, and of the country districts, and together they drew up a petition to m6 Sultan, in which they confined themselves to ask- {aa for such privileges only as had been guaranteed to them by tho great Powers. At the same time another addreas was confidentially transmitted to the sovereigns of France, Great Britain and Russia, which expressed more fully the real desires of the Cretan people. For over three months no reply whatever was made by the Turkish government; but troops to the number of about 22,000 were gradually concentrated upon the island, and pushed forward into the interior with the design of seiz- ing upon the strategic pointa, Then, on July 22, 1366, the Grand Vizier issued a letter to the Governor General im which the Turkish government refused even to enter- tain complaints, and threatened severe penalties upon those who should continue to offer them. The Governor was directed, in case of further persistence, to attack and disperse the Cretan assemblies and to arrest and im- privon their chiefs in tho fortresses. Temail Pacha, the Governor, issued a proclamation forthwith in accordance with these orders; whereupon the Crotan General Assembly, then in session at Pros- nero, decided to take up arms; and on the Ist of August, 1806, they addressed the following manifesto to the con- als of Christian Powers :— PROTEST OF THE CRETANS ON TAKING UP ARMS. Prosxero, Aug. 1, 1866. ‘The undersigned, representatives the Christian population of is, met together in s General Assem- bty of the Cretans, think it their duty to make you wit- nesses of the violence which has urged them, in spite of themsolves, to take up arms for their iegitimate defence.

But the Governor General has perverted humble request which we had presented pacifically, ask- ing for fulfiment of sacred promises. After bavi let us wait three months, he has now at last obtained the sublime Porte a negative and menacing reply, and bimeelf before us in arms to oppose force to he = making the consuls of the Christian Powers wit- nesses of the above facts, we now take up arms in our ewn defence, and render the authorities responsible, in the eyes of the civilized world, for the consequences. {Signed by the representatives of the Christian popula- tion of Candia.) A COUNTER PROCLAMATION. On August 2, Ismail Pacha, the Governor General, is- sued the following proclamation :— Inmasrrayts or Caxpia—As all are aware, from a pre- vious prociamation, the imperial ernment, in its magnanimity, deignod to order that the Assembly should ee ed to disperse immediately, and that all persons be desired to return to their ae and their homes. Those who took part the a and some who styled themselves mem- bers the preten yester- to turn a deaf ear to these benevolent and august lors, and persist in their foolish conduct, Every one must censure their course, for they have now clearly shown themselves rebele. The local ne ernment will disperse assemblies by of arms wherever it may encounter them. It will pursue intriguers, and the chiefs of the revolt, by ‘every means in its power. Every vil ts forbidden te harbor, or in any way assist or join m; as contra- vention of these orders will be considered rebellious and suitably The local government, on the other band, will protect, to the extent of its ability, the lives, honor and property of peaceful men. All persons are cautioned to pone their own occupations, without lis. vening to or intrigues. The people should remain tranquil, busying themselves with their labor and ‘the care of their families. ISMAIL PACHA, Govornor General of Candia, ‘THE CHARACTER OF THE CONTEST. The revolt speedily assumed the character of a religious war. The Turks, residing mostly in the cities, could not be restrained from assaulting and murdering the defence. Jess Christians, With that fanatical zeal for the destrac- tion of unbelievers, which is taught them as@ part of their religion, they were regardless of either age or sex. On the transports which brought reinforcements of troops to the island, during the latter part of Au- qust, arrived a dervish, who went about baranguing the Mussulman population and inciting them to & general massacre of the Christians, This preaching of murder he repeated at tho various ports at which the transports touched, But previous to his arrival churches bad been pillaged and profaned, and enormities of every kind hed, been commited all over the island. Tho United states Consui at Canea and others remonstrated against these barbarities, but in vain. The Mussulmans even wont so far in their crazy excitement as to agsault the Consulates of the United States, Holland and Sweden, The consequence was a epeedy ordering of vessels of war into the Candian waters for the protec- tion of foreigners and Christians, at least in the seaport OPRRATION® OF THE CReTave, In the moantime the Crotans had been concentrating in the jntains, mustering, it is said, throughout the istand an aggregate of 25, armed men. At {iret they left their families behind in the plain, but subsequent events proved the necessity of witdrawing them from the meroiless barbaritiée ot the Turks. The district of Sphakia, (pronounced Sfakia) occupying the southern part of the is! and extending into the mountain region, presented an impregnable fortress for defonce and security, Here the armed men gathered together, and the unarmed ‘wore brought for safety, The people soon became ani- mated with a fervid zeal for their religion as well aa for dhoir independence. On the 12th of August the popula. tion of the several districts about Mount Ida published a decree establishing ‘‘n sacred battalion’ of four hundred veteran soldiers to fight for the cross. The banner by tho insurgents had emblazoned upon it a rep- resentation of the Saviour upon the cross—a pathetic claim of fellowship with Christ, in the sufferings and —— they were ondaring for the sake of Hia ro. zion.

APPRAL TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. Among the manifestos issued by the Cretan General Assembly in August, was a special appeal to the President of the United States It gives a succinct account of the hi of the island and of the grievances of its Christian inhabitanis. It recounts the struggle for liberty in 1821-9, their los? of it through the interference the great Powers, and the failure of those Powers to secure totbem the righis and privileges which were guaranteed. It asks the intercession of the United States to obtain the attea- tion of the great European Powers, HARUARITIS OF THR TUREA, An illustration ot the barbarous couduct of the Turks is found in the case of the pillage of Agsites, ou the 27th of August, as described by Spiridakis, a priest, in an aflilavit made by him at Canea, on the 23d of Septem- ber. There was an indiscriminate butchery of the in- habitants. Spiridakis saw three killed before his eves, and then fled with his family, consisting of seventeon peracns. They hid themselves in a grotto on Mount St. ‘Anttony, but were discovered by the Turks and sum- mored to come out. Spiridakisand his son came, but the others staid through fear, The Turks builta fire in the mouth of the cave and smothered all who remained. ‘Taey then boat and louded with chains the father and son, and spit on and otherwise abused them, on their re- ‘usal to abjure their religion. While they were held as prisoners upon a steamer three Cretans wero brought oa board and beheaded before their oyes, aud they them- selves narrowly escaped the same fate. After being gain beaten amd maltreated they were put on board another steamer and brought to Canea, whore, being personally known to Mustapha Pacha, they were by bis order finally released. MASSACRE NEAR REIIMO, On the third of September a false report became cur. pent, among the Turks of Rethymnos (or Retimo) that {wo Mussulmans had been killed by the Christians at tho village of Senia, The cry for vengeance was at once raised, and it was with difficulty that the aub-governor prevented a crowd of Turks from sallying out of the town to massacre all the Christiana in the neighborhood. ‘The sub-governor departed the same evening for Canca, leaving the commandant of Rethymnos to perform his functions in that city, This officer placed sentinels at the gates, but one hundrod and twenty Turks succeeded in escaping from the city by jumping over the lowor portions of the wall, and proceeded to slaughter, in- discriminately, all the Christians they ¢ the next day, September 6, the su turned, but fifteen hundred Turks broke out, and recommenced the massacre. A battalion of soldiers sent out to restraiu them made common cause with the murderers. About one hundred and fifty, mostly old men, women and children were killed, the villages were pillaged, and the plunder expored for sale at the Christian cemetery. itself the aS: obliged to take refuge at the houses of the forelgm Consuls, who protested in vain. ‘The Greek Consul, in fact, declared to his goverumont that he felt himself unsafe. POLITICAL PLOTTINGS AND EVENTS. The Turkish government had been meanwhile pressing forward reinforcements. which tt drow partiy from Egypt. The Sultan was extremely anxious for a speedy suppression of the revolt, as ita continuance tended to unsettle the condition of his whole empire and bring about ee revolution. It seems that the com- mander of the Egyptian troops, Saim Pacha, had repr: sented himself as having full powers to treat with the Cretans, There arose a rumor that the Viceroy of Egypt had offered to purchase the island on terms similar to those on which he had recently obtained the Red Sea provinces of Souakim and Massowah. Hts offer was to pay an extra tribute of £80,000 the firat year, £100,000 the second and a successive increase on the latter sum yearly for fifteen years. He further agrees to appoint as aoe General whomsoever the Porte saould recom- men: Early in September Saim Pacha was recalled. About the same time the Cretan General Assembly iasued a #00- ond protest to the foreign Consuls realdent at Canea. This document refers to the previous protest, and also to “anew report exposing the falsehood and injustice of the pretensions put forward by the Sublime Porte, which had been sent to be published in Greece. it asks the Consuls to enlighten their several govern tH “upon the artifices and istries of the Turka,"’ and ae on to call atten to the following facta :— jact “ faith in the words of the Ray ptian Sirdar, recetv pon Saim Pacha, who repeatediy assured us he full power from the Sublime Porte to treat with us wy) the Candian question, we should bave become the vio- tims of trickery and deception bad we not recalled in time the deputies we sent to him in good faith. In oom now in arms for our security, we shall be compelled to repulse the army if it attacks us and endeavors to hunt us out of the caverns whither we have becn forced to re- treat with onr wives and children while waiting for the august Christian governments to decide our fate."” ‘hey then call atteation to the desecration of ohurches at Cydonia, Rethymnos and Candanos, aad to the tor- tures uparmed men were subjected to for refusing to sign petitions in opposition to those of the insurgents. Apparently the policy of the Sultan at this time was the of the revolution and paralyse the influence of the y making fair promises of re- form.

A convention was entered into whereby the prisoners were to be sent to a Pa Fp the island, and the tents and furnitufe on Christians, one from the wince of Heracleion (in which the town of Candia is situated), the other fro the province of Malevizion, describing the attrocities commitied there by the Turkish troops and residents, The Cretans were so excited by these accounts that, for- getful of their own he they put the ten Egyptians held by them to death. ptians retaliated by killing six of the Cretan hostages. OTHER BATTLES—THR CRETANS VICTORIOUS, Another battle is reported as taking place near Can- dia, lasting three days from the 9th to the Lith of - tember.
