_History of Europe from the Fall of Napoleon in 1815, to the Accession of Louis Napoleon in 1852._ By Sir ARCHIBALD ALISON, Bart. Vol. iii. Footnote 3: The work, when completed, will, we understand, consist of four volumes octavo; the second volume is expected to appear in a few weeks. Footnote 4: Sir A. Alison, perhaps, as we shall see afterwards, confines his sympathy to the assertion that, _after the infamous butchery of the Greeks at Chios_, the intervention of the Christian States in behalf of the oppressed Christian people became a duty. Footnote 5: That this “_bloody_ and _brutal_” policy is still exercised by the Turks, when they have their free swing, is evident from the letter of Mr Saunders, the British Consul at Prevesa, which appeared about two months ago in the _Times_, and of which a Greek translation now lies before us in the Αθηνᾶ—an Athenian newspaper—of the 9th June. Footnote 6: It may be interesting to observe here, as a proof of the permanency of the Greek language, that the phrase used by our modern Greek ambassador in this place, ατενίσας είς τον ουρανον, is exactly the same as that used by St Luke in the account of the martyrdom of St Stephen, Acts, vii. 55. Indeed, the vocabulary of the living Greeks, as well as their syntax, is strongly tinged by the language of the Septuagint and the New Testament; a fact, of which our students of theology, if they have any sense, will take note. Footnote 7: Δεν συστελλομαι νὰ ὁμολογήσω ὅτι ἤμῆν εναντιος τοῦ τοιούτου κινήματυς κατὰ του Σουλτανου· ὄχι διότι θὲν επεθύμουν τῆν ελευθερίαν τοῦ ἔθνους μου ἀλλὰ διότι μ’ εφαινετο ἄωρον το κίνημα, μὲ το νὰ ἦσαν ἀπειροπολεμοι οἱ Ἕλληνες καὶ οἱ πλεῖστοι ἄοπλοι, ὁ δὲ κίνδυνος μεγας.—PERRHAEBUS, _Military Memoirs_. Athens, 1836. Footnote 8: τοῦ Κερατιου κὁλπου—that is, we have no doubt, the large expansion of the Golden Horn west of Galata, and north of the Fanar. Footnote 9: The modern Greek has lost not a whit of the fine rich flexibility which has made the ancient dialect such a convenient organ for our scientific terminology. The word for Lazaretto used here is λοιμοκαθαρτήριον; and scores of such words are seen on the signboards of the streets of Athens at the present hour. Footnote 10: _Appendix to Spottiswood_, p. 29. Footnote 11: Dr J. H. Todd, who first published this letter, (_English Churchman_, Jan. 11, 1849), supposed Bishop Taylor to be speaking of Dr Peter Barron of Cambridge, but afterwards, on the evidence being communicated to him, was entirely satisfied, and corrected his mistake. “The author referred to (writes Dr Todd) is certainly Dr Robert Barron of Aberdeen, a divine of whom the Church of Scotland may be justly proud.”—_Irish Ecclesiastical Journal_, March 1849.
