Greece. We have cheering intelligence from Greece. Accounts from Napoli di Romani, of March 12, Cephalonia, March 11, and Zante, March 24, all confirm the statement (of which we have before published a rumor) that the Egyptians who landed at Modon had been completely beaten. The Cephalonia account adds, that Ibrahim Pacha himself is blocked up in the fortress of Modon. His troops only landed in Greece to meet their death. Among those who have been taken prisoners are many Europeans, especially Frenchmen, amongst whom there is a General. What a terrible stigma to their country!

The intelligence, as conveyed from Zante, is as follows: The Arab troops who were landed at Modon, manure with their corpses the fine olive plantations of that place. According to all the letters which we have received to day from the Peloponnesus, they have been almost entirely destroyed or taken prisoners. The Greeks have made a rich booty. A division of the Greek fleet, of seven vessels of war and five fire ships, have shut up the Egyptian fleet in the Gulf of Coron, and only wait for a favorable wind to send the fire ships against them. The President, T. Conduriottis, with 10,000 men, is already marching against Patras. We learn, also, that the Hydriotes having heard of the arrival of a part of the Turkish fleet in the Straits of the Dardanelles, sent forty vessels to oppose them. The campaign already augurs badly for the Turks, and we may soon expect very favorable intelligence.

The Frankfort Journal of April 14, contains accounts, from various quarters, of the arrival of a Turkish squadron, on the 20th February, at Modon, which is said to consist of seven frigates, nine brigs, and other vessels, containing 8,000 troops. It is also affirmed that there are at Candia, 200 other vessels, ready to sail with more considerable forces, and that 50,000 men are encamped in the environs of Larissa. As the date of the defeat of the Egyptians at Modon is not given, we have no means of judging whether this account does not refer to the armament of Ibrahim Pacha. But be this as it may, the Greeks are described as beholding these formidable preparations without the least dismay.
