On the 30th June, an affray took place be tween the populace and the guard, in which m officer wa killed. A letter received hi London, dated Ma drid 29th June, says' This country is In a most convulsed state, without funds, Credit, or con Silence yet, still I think the constitution will stand firm against all do mestic "atueks." The proceedingsof the Portuguese Cor tes are important, ai it is suppose! they woukl lead to a declaration of. Indepen dence of the Brazils. . A measure to that effect had been proposed, and was under discussion. The debate were carried on with great vehemence. We have copied below, an article from Hamburg, dated July 4, which the London Courier of July 43, says is a document, which may be considered an official expo sition of the conduct of Russia, with res pect to her difleiences with Turkey.

Lofto, (Sunday Evening,) July 14. , 5am, Further intelligence arrived yesu ' diy from Madrid, bringing down our inhVmvicn from that city to iho evening of 6th. At that period, we understand, no cvitcession had been made by the mu tint. . troops, nor had any thing transpir ed inspire hopes of bringing the affair to !. amicable accommodation. Frequent inir " ric ws are said to ha ve taken place be lwe.;i the King uiul his Ministers, in wh'r'i the Utter strongly urged his M.jes ty.'n unction with his name the promul gation of some official document, declar ing his disapprobation of the conritfct of the royal guards, and designating them by the title of rebel to their country. It is added, that, with this proposition Ferdi nand has firmly refused compliance, de claring that his guard were his friends, and should never be stigmatised or brought into peril by any act of his. An appre hension, to which the vacillating couduct of the King gave some cause, appears to have been entertained by the ministers, that Ferdinand migbt suddenly adopt the resolution of placing himself under .the protection of the refractory troops; and they u-ged him. therefore, to repair to sonic place of safety, where his person, should the troops be incited to so daring an attempt, might be secure from seizure. To this pre position, also, the King return ed a derided negative with the remark, that Lis guards were faithful, and that he had nothing to fear from them. In this situation affairs at Madrid were left on the 6th inst, the conduct of the King insplr in the most serious alarm t-mong that poni'in of the people who are well affec ted to the constitution. All the impartial reports of trarellcrs and cf private letters rei.te, with the utmost confidence, that the crct bulk of the Spanish nation is der l'fily attached to the constitution, and that the only dangerous disaffection exists in tl.r Koysl guardj, uidcst there should also 'jc .tided the King himself.

" The high minded Alexander, there fore, will not disengage himself from the cause cf the Greeks, but forever sucure to them by guarantee what humanity and religion command, what right and treaties require, as soon as the direct negotiations now preparing at Vienna have begun. It is to be expected that the other powers will second his amicable intentions, and, with the harmony that now exists between all the courts, it cannot be doubted that this desirable object will be attained, if the Divan remain faithful to the disposition which it has lately shewn. It is clear that the threatening attitude of it neigh bors, the energetic language of the medi ators, and, above all, the union and har mony of all the European courts, have produced a great change in its way of thinking. The troops ia Moldavia and Wallachia, whatever may be publicly re ported on the subject, will be withdrawn. A declaration of smnsty in favor of the Greeks Is likewise to br expected as soon as they have laid down their arms. We have reason to belicte that preliminary steps to this end are already taken. The moderation and magnanimity which characterise the policy of the em peror, are recognised and appreciated by all diplomatic character who are versed in political principles.

It is not known w hat has become of Gen. Quesada. Thus, the atmy which wa to overthrow the conr titulional rov ernment of Spain, and which arrogated the tight of interpreting the intention of allied princes, is entire ly destroyed. Thirty of those unfortunate men who formed part of the band of the Curate Zavala, in Biscay, have arrived here.

If a deadly 'enmity to all Christians the infringement of the capitulations of ecry nation in Turkey with the Po le an arrogimcc as great as ridiculous do not soon bring ubout a war, I shall be much mistaken. The general opinion is, that a war with Russia will not take place. Something certainly bus long delayed it : I presume the disposition of ell the cabinet of Europe, to avoid war any in way, or with any people. At last, I fear, they will be driven to it, in which case this country will be no residence for an European. A short lime must clear that matter. M The Turkish and Greek fleet arc in sight of each other. The Turks have, by great odds, the greatest force ; they do not, however, appear disposed to attack the Greeks, and the Greeks wait to find them at anchor, in hopes of being able to burn them ; and for our misfortune, they are no further off than the mouth of the Bay of bmyrna. If the lurks, through-their bad conduct, should board their fleet, then we way expect a great uproar here. If they engage at sea, it appears to me ut terly impossible the Greeks should suc ceed. The Turk have six line of battle ships, 1 1 large frigates, 1 5 to 20 corvettes, and 20 gun boats ; the Gieiks in two di visions of 40 each, principally brigs of a bout 250 tons, a few ships, say 810, from 4 to 500 tond. ltRITISII NOm tlEltN EXPEDITION, mux rat: Ktmai t hi li.
