300 THE WAR OF GREEK INDEPENDENCE now doubly anxious to rid the Morea of the presence of Ibrahim. The Russian invasion had withdrawn the mass of the Turkish troops from continental Greece; and it would have been easy to reconquer all that had been won from the Greeks by Reshid; but as long as Ibrahim remained in the south it was impossible for the Hellenic forces to leave the Morea. Under these circumstances the President once more earnestly pressed the admirals to compel the withdrawal of the Egyptian army and in ; July a conference was held by them at Zante, at which it was decided l to facilitate the sailing of a fleet of transports from Alexandria, to carry away Ibrahim's forces. If, however, the hopes of Egyptian transports should prove deceptive, everything possible would have been done/ Admiral Codrington, without authority from above, and without consulting any one, determined that the hopes should not prove deceptive. He sailed to Alexandria, and, on the 9th of August, arranged a treaty with Mehemet Ali, providing for an exchange of prisoners, and for the immediate evacuation of the Morea. The strong and frank personality of the British admiral is said to have exercised a great influence over the mind of the Viceroy; but the determining factor in the negotiations was of course the impending French expedition, which both were aware of, but
GENERAL MAISON IN THE MOREA 301 neither mentioned! 1 It was the last interference on behalf of Greece of the clear-sighted and courageous admiral ; and it came none too soon ; for, on his return to Navarino, he found Sir Pulteney Malcolm, who had been sent out to supersede him. 2 In their eagerness for glory, the French had pushed on their preparations with unexpected haste; and on the 30th of August, before the transports which were to convey Ibrahim to Alexandria had arrived, General Maison landed with 14,000 men at Petalidi in the Gulf of Coron. To their infinite disgust, however, they found that the object of their expedition had already been achieved. The Egyptian army showed not the slightest disposition to dispute their landing. On the contrary, Ibrahim called upon the French commander, and inspected the troops, which, instead of the expected glory, had to be content with some neatlyturned compliments on their smartness and military appearance. On the 16th of September the transports arrived, 1 Mendelssohn, ii. 97. 2 The conduct of Admiral Codrington during- his command had been violently criticized, and his independence had more than once forced the hand of the Government. In the present instance, however, Lord Aberdeen paid in the House of Lords a high tribute to the skill with which the negotiations at Alexandria had been conducted. Cf. Hansard, xxiv. 991.
