Extract of a letter from Ancona June 19.
The day before yesterday letters arrived here from the
Morea, of good authority, mentioning, that the 30th ult.
Prince Orlow had dispatched 2000 regular troops and 16000
mainotes from Navarino to Corinth, to keep their post there,
in order to prevent the Turks entering the Morea. . . the
Turks had 8000 men killed and 1600 taken prisoners, and lost
24 colours, 20 kettle drums, five pieces of cannon, and a
great deal of baggage and provision. . .
