No particular light bas been thrown upon the real position of affairs in Crete by the report of Djomil Pacha, & statesman whom your readers will remember the Sultan recently despatched to the island for the express purpose of collecting minute details respecting the insur rection, as his report simply confirms the lqest news from Mustapha Pacha, namely, that it was only a very small remnant of the insurgents, reinforced by foreign auxiliaries, which still offered resistance vo the imperial troope. ‘The imperial commissioner of Rethymno had returned to Canea after appomting miidire (officials of various descriptions) and tax collectors in the revolted districts, and then took his departure, but only to return after the lapse of two days with a force of nine battalions, with which he is stated to have given the cup de grace to the insurgents in certain portions of the jatand. As several days have now passed since intelligence was received by the Porte of his whereabouts, it is presumable that his further active operations bave obstructed by the badness of the weather or similar causer, The Turkish blockade of Candia bas now been con- siderably strengthened with a view to the early capture of the Greek vessele, which are continually ronning to and without whoro invaiuahle rachts when taken into consideration with the immense deatence tenversed, cannot fail but excite es lively sarprise and interest.as the short time in whech tbe race was ras.
