1823. Nov.r 5. Pisa
Greece Hon Col Leicester Stanhope to John Bowning Esq.
3
The Metropolitan thinks it would be
unwise to attempt to discipline the present
bands who have proved their wonderful
effeciency. He would however have
a force disciplined for the protection of
the forts and important passes
All the public bodies and eminent
public men I have conversed with agree
in the expediency of changing the Government
of the Ionian Islands. To promote
this end I have written to Lord Hastings.
I shall also endeavour to move the German
and Come.. and the (50) I believe Greek students
at Bologna and the (30) Greek students
at Pisa to address His Lr.. and get their addresses
sent home for publication. The
Russians & French contrived to conciliate
these Islanders by securing in their interest
the Aristocracy. Sir . Maitland on
the contrary has selected inefficient and
insignificant Men to fill the offices of
Govt.. Creatures that would bow to his will.
Both systems are founded in injustice,
for morality prescribes that none but
men of 1 probity and aptitude sd. be selected
to rule.
