the Piraeus-has not caused 6 flutter of agitation in Royalist hearts at Athens.

And they have even thought it worth while to 'sanction a, statement that the ships were sunk by badly placed French mines. This kind of thing -deceives no one.

Some tight Greek ships of war have been seized by Admiral du Fournat, after the Athens Government had refused to hand them over voluntarily.
