Last Sunday several of the Cretan deputies, elected under the

Revolutionary Government to sit in the Greek Parliament: were arrested by an officer of the British cruiser 'Minerva when they were on their way to Athens. Their steamer was compelled to return to Sada. Bay, and the deputies were then distributed among British, French, and Russian ships, where they are still detained. This act by the protecting Powers was a very wise one, and when the excitement subsides, as no doubt it very soon will, it will be possible to release the deputies. They know now that they will not be allowed to sit in the Greek Parliament.
