348 THE WAR OF GREEK INDEPENDENCE writhed under the capricious and irresponsible tyranny of Yiaro Capodistrias. If this was Liberty, they might well begrudge the cost at which it had been purchased. Their once flourishing island was on the verge of ruin ; their wharves deserted, their vessels rotting in the port. The self-chosen fate which bound them to a government whose chief was trying to stave off national bankruptcy by a ruinous fiscal policy threatened to destroy the last remnants of their prosperity. Already many of their merchants had transferred their business to islands which still enjoyed the blessings of Turkish rule; and the rest threatened to follow. These were the results of the immense sacrifices which the Hydriots had made for the cause of Greece, and for which, so. far from receiving any compensation, they had received not even recognition. The Government was in their debt for losses and damage they had sustained in the national service, and they presented a claim for fifteen million francs. Capodistrias, after some prevarication, finally offered six millions in full satisfaction of the demand. The Hydriots refused in wrath, and their breach with the Government was final. 1 Hydra now became the focus of a huge conspiracy, which soon extended all over the archipelago, and which had for its end the establishment of a constitui Mendelssohn, ii. 224.
INCREASING AGITATION 349 tional government. 1 The important island of Syra, which was, at this period, the main source of the national revenues, early gave in its adherence to the movement, and it was followed by most of the other island communities. The ' Apollo/ under the vigorous editorship of Polyzoides, became the mouthpiece of the agitation; and its columns were filled with addresses, from all parts of the archipelago, clamouring for a free constitution. The mainland and the Morea as yet held aloof, and even sent the President petitions in an opposite sense. It seemed as though Hellas were about to be rent into two halves, with the waters of the ^Egean, on which her liberties had been cradled, flowing as a barrier between them. Within the councils of the Triple Alliance also a cleavage now became apparent; and, while Capodistrias could always reckon upon the support of Russia, the liberal Western Powers showed a scarcely veiled sympathy for the Opposition. The Hydriots had demanded the right to elect a new Demogerontia, or communal council ; and Capodistrias had replied that they might elect whom they pleased, but that he would recognise only those who obeyed his government. Their growing hostility he proposed to meet with coercive measures; and he proceeded to sound the representai Prokesch, ii. 439.
