The treaty of July 6. concluded at London, is now fully known to the Porte, which does not seem the more disposei tb recognite the principles of it; and it is even said that should it be carried into effect, the Div4n would send passports to the Minist ers o f t h e t h ree Collets. M. de Riheampierre having desired a conference with the Reis Effendi, on the article relative to Servi4, in the treaty of Alermann. the Reis Effendi has intimated that he wishes the affair to be treated only through the Dragomans. MADRID, Ammar 17. The news of the treaty betaeen Buenos Ayres and Brasil has produced an impression on the Spanish Go. vernment which is much to be regretted. The dismissal of M. Recacho has been followed by that of M. Balboa, Intendant of the province of M a d r id, who e xerted himself with M. Recacho to oppose the violent party of which M. Calomarde is the chief. M. Balboq is exiled to Granada, and is succeeJed by M. Locales, who is favourable to the Absolutists. The two exiles were to leave Madrid at one in the morning. M. Bal boa happily got out of the city unnoticed ; but M. Re. cacho, whose door was surrounded by a mob,.was ad vised to send away his carriage to deceive the crowd, and go out on foot by a back door : he did so, but was soon recognized and surrounded by a number of arti. sans and Royalist Volunteers, who cried is The Aposto lic King for ever I Death to the Negroes ! Death to Re cacho I" When he reached the ruerta del Sol, he was obliged to take refuge in the post- , ffice, and place him self under the protection of the guard. Tne captain of e post made his men load their pieces, to awe the po- pulace; some of them were drawn up in the square, patroles were organized ; the cavalry dispersed the moh, and about four o'clock M. Recacho joined . his car riage out of the city. This scene has caused a great seas 'don at Madrid, as it gives reason to fear acts Of vi olence. This is one of the most alarming symptoms for Spain.

By a Resolution of the Council of the Empire, of the 23d Juue, it is ordered, that all marriages contracted by persons professing the Greek religion according to the ancient form (Bostolnicks), shall henceforth be ex amined, not by the Ecclesiastical, but by the Civil Authorities. The Princess Lobanow•Aostnwsky, who possessed so ►ery large a property, has declared herself insolvent. The bankruptcy is said to be for seven millions of roubles. The Government is repotted to lose very con siderably by it. A Special Commission has been ap pointed, with his Majesty's consent, to regulate the financial affairs of the Princess, who means to cede all her property to her creditors. and afterwards to go to Switzerland. A long Ordinance has been issued for the purpose of obviating the delays and misunderstanding which fre quently occur to travellers arriving at Cronstad:, for want of knowledge of the language and regulations. Ammar 10.—A very extraordinary curiosity, viz. a lump of solid Platina, above 10Ibs. weight, has been found in the mine of Nishneilagilsk, in the Ural belong ing to Privy Counsellor Demedon. This specimen is roundish ; the soperficies granular, like coarse pundsline, here and there polished with a metallic lustre. The specific gravity, rather above 16, shews that the sub stances usually mixed with Platina are found in the piece. It is remarkable that the specimen was found in digging clay for a rile-kiln. CHRISTIANIA, Jticr 13. On the the 9th of this month, the Storthing held its! last sitting previous to its dissolution, which, according to news brought by a courier on the same day, was to take place to-day. The subjects on which it was lat terly engaged, were unimportant.

A letter from Jassy of the 3d August, which we have just received, gives the folio. ing parttculats;— *. On the Ist, towards the evening the wind abated, and thus, thank Heaven! the remaining part of the city WAS saved from the fury of the flames. What I stated in my letter of the Ist proves, on further inquiry, to be but too true, and the number, both of the buildings consumed and of the persons who perished in the flames, is still greater. Every hour more dead bodies are dog out of the ruins. The damage is far more considerable than that which this unfortunate city sustained by the fire in 1821. At that time the greater part of the in habitants were absent in consequence of the disturban ces in the principalities, the houses and shops were near ly empty ; and, besides, the handsomest and most po pulous part of the city escaped, which has now been destroyed. Almost all the well-stocked warehouses, the principal palaces, and the finest churches, are con sumed. It is a sight appalling beyond all description —a tract of half a league in extent is covered with im mense, still smoking heaps of ruins, and the streets and squates are strewed with.the corpses of the many per sons who have perished, and of the burnt domestic ani mals, which in this hot season infect the air. These horrors are increased by bands of prowling wretches, who have already attempted to set fire to the town in several places, and the safety of the remaining pact of the e ty is owing only to the patrols that have been or• ganized during the last three days, in which the subjects iif Austria have particularly distinguished themselves. The Prince has removed with his family to the house of Dionetraki Ghyka, which has escaped the general destruction:' ZANTE, km' 12. The 5,000 or 4 000 Ar.bi sent by Ibrahim PAcha, in May, to AstA, to receive a great number of horses, 'arrived on the sth or June, at the C4ith of Itamelia, with 3,000 horses. On the 6th, Ibrahim went to the Caith of the Mores to direct the conveyance of the horses over the Gulp)), which was effected in great or der. On the 14th of June, he sent Achmet Pacha with the abovementioned Egyptian troops. and three thou sand Albanians, to Tripolizzr, with two thousand horses taken with provisions. On the 18th, he returned to Pow, where the troops employed against Castel Torne,e (which capitol tied on the 17th of May) also arrived on the same day. Achmet Pacha likewise re• turned to Patras on the 25th June. Provisions were continually sent to Tripolizza without any opposition from the Gret ks.

The division of the fleet under Taber Pacha, arrived at Patens on the 4th of June. from Na waren ; only seven of the hips anchored that day. The remainder.:2l in number, inclsading the Admiral's ship, remained cruising till the 16th of June,-between Chia renza and Cape Ducalo, when they also anchored at Patras.

Count Capo d'lstria sires born at Corfu, in the year 1776. His family had, from the year 1300, held an honourable plice io the first class of citizens of" the Seven lonian Isles. He studied in the unive ' 'es of Italy, and returned to his country in 1798, at the mo ment when the overthrow of the Republic of Venice introduced into the lonian Islands the democratic power of France. He found his father a prisoner, and threa tened by the French Commissary with banishment, on account, it was said. of his political opinions. Count Capo d'lstria exerted himself with zeal and activity fur the relief of his father, and bad the good fortuue to succeed. lu February, 1799. the French were obliged to surrender the lonian Islands to the combined Russian and Ottoman fleets. Count Capo (Node's father was then appointed head of the lonian De putatlea, which proceeded to Constantinople to take part in neva. elation. which had for their object to determine the fete of the Seven Islands. In fact, she Treaty of the 20th of March, 1800, constituted the Seven Island. a Republic, tributary to the Potte in like manner as Ragusa was played under the protection of RUB. Ma and England. Though still young, Count Capo &Istria was employed in 1808 to organize the islands of Cephalonia, Ithaca, and Santa Maur& This was the commencement of his political career. The new Republic could not always avert Ali Parisi. influence, or escape from the consequences of his tocroachmeots. The coasts of Epirus, Butrinto, Vonitza, and Previsa, the Governments of which were placed under the safeguard of the Seven Islands. were occupied by the Pasha's armies, which were t►en supported by the policy of Boinaparte, and assisted by his calkers. Peep alone re. silted this invasion. The degradation and ►umWatlon which the Icarian Government experieuced is campmate of this infraction of the Treaty, sowed the seeds of discord in the interior, which afterwards grew up into civil war. In 11102 a Russian Plenipotentiary arrived at Corte, with the mission of pacificator of the islands, and with the guarantee of their constitution. Count Caps d'lstria was thee appointed Secretary of State for the Home Department of the Republic, and afterwards for Foreign Affairs, for the Marine. and for Commerce. One of the most prominent acts of his administration was the establisbmeat of normal schools, which had not before ezisted in the Islands. The national language, which had been hatlittle cultivated, was made a ' particular object in these schools. In 1007, the Isle of Santa Maim was threatened by All Pasha. The lonia* Government invested Count Capo d'lstria with the powers of Commissioner Fstraotdinary en the frontiers, and placed under his orders all the militia of the Seven Islands, as well as t►e Greeks of 'liars', Albania, and the PekpollatiliN who were in the service of the Allied Courts in the Seven Islands. In this campaign, under the cannon of Ali Packs, Count Capo d'lstrla became first known to the Greek Captains Colocotroni, Botsaris Caraiskaki, and other chiefs; and at this epoch hi s per sonal rel ations with the warlike part of Greece commenced. The peace of Tilsit brought back the French to the lonian Idands. Count Capo cllstria remained in the country, but accepted no em ployment. In July, 1808, he was invit-d by the Russian Ministry to repair to Petersburgh, to be employed in the foreign Department. Thither be went in 1809, and remained there until 1818. He was then employed in the suite of the Russian Embassy pt Vienna, whence be was summoned to discharge the functions of Chief of the Diplo matic Department at the head quarters of the Russian army of the Danube, and afterwards with the Grand Army. He continued with the army during the campaigns of 1815, 1814, 1815, and took an active part in the most important uegoclations of this memor able epoch. _ _ _ In l';icivember,lBl3, the Emperor Alexander sent him to Swit zerland. The result of his missies was, that Switzerland made common cause with the Allied Powers against Bonaparte, and the system of the Helvetic Confederation as it now exists was in part his work in concurrence with the Ministers of the other Allied Cuutts, and of the 22 Cantons. Switzerland still feels for him a grateful affection ; and, independently of the testimony of national gratitude bestowed on him by the Cantons of Vaud and Geneva, is granting him the rights of citizenship, he has been enabled, during his residence, to gather the fruits of the favourable sentiments with which he had impressed that country. At the Congress of Vienna, during the conferences at Pais in lills, and at Aix-la-Chapelle, Count Capo &Istria, possessing all the confidence of the Emperor Alexander, was chosen to carry on the principal negotiations with the Allied lowers—negotiations which Included those, the result of which was the placing the lonian Islands under the exclusive pro tection of Great Britain. In all these situations Count Capo d'lstria constantly professed liberal principles, but in a spirit remarkable for moderation and conciliation. From 1816 to 1822 he exercised the functions of Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs in the Cabinet of the Emperor Alexander. Judging from the testimonies of esteem with which the Emperor Alexander and the other Sovereigns of Europe honoured him, and from the reception he received in all the countries he visited, it would appear that Capo d'lstria has known how to win, not only the good-will of monarchs, but the no less important suffrage of public opinion. In 1882, when the Court of Russia, adopted the Austrian system with regard to the affairs of the Levant and Greece, Count Capo d'lstria resigned his office and retired to Switzerland, carrying with him marks of the unaltered kindness of the Emperor Alexander, and of the attachment of the most distinguished persons in Russia.— During his residence in Switzerland he lived very privately, devoting his time, his attention, and all his fortune—by the by, a very mode rate one—to the service of the unfortunate Greeks. In the beginning of the year 1826 he came to Paris, and it WAS supposed that he then intended to go to Russia. He did not take the journey, however, until the month of May in the present year, and it was un his arrival in ku•sia that he received the news of the choice which called hint to the Government at the affairs of Greece. ' After a residence of two mouths in Russia, Count Capo &Istria retraced his step., and he is now in this country. Hfirarrival was preceded by a overt., whereby the Emperor Nicholas gives him a complete discharge from his service, fu terms which at once de• monstrate the personal sentiments entertained by his Sovereign to wards him, and the character of the tteuilectious he left behind bins in !tussle A meeting of the inhibit:lnd o this town was held at the Public Office, on Friday, for the propose of tak ing into consideration thh propriety of presenting an Address of Condolence to his Maine!, on the death of the Right Hon. Gnomon Canned. Tsai:moat Paten, Esq. proposed the first Resolutiori: They all knew how much trouble, anxiety, and sorrow, our excellent King bad experienced from the time of the good Lord Liverpooi's sodden illness to the presen-i and as lie was, in a politic .1 point of view, their father, it became them as his dutiful children, to come forward and give him comfort, by dutiful and affec tionate condolence. Another motive for prev n• ing this Address was, that as the licentious part of the Press was attempting to run down Lord Goderich, whom his Majesty had appointed to succeed Mr. Canning, it was hoped that by agreeing to the Address, this town would thus put some check to the progress of the attackrof the Press ag ainst the Noble L .r.f. He be i rged t o o b. serve, that he had known his Lot dship for the last 'ten years, and he was a man whom he had always con. ceived would ultimately fill the situation to which he was now elevated. He possessed all the qualities re quisite for so important a situation; lie was of such sea. vity of manners, so wise and good, and so conciliatory, that doubtless his Lordship had appeased to his Stove reign the man most likely to fill that high station. TIMMIT SMITH, Est. seconded the resoluitin. He alluded to the anxiety of his Majesty on the recent po sition of public affairs. He said, it th y admitted that such had been the situation of his M jesty, they must agree that nothing could tend mote to mitigate Fits sorrows, and give support to the Royal mind end. r the difficulties with which he had been surrounded, than a dutiful and loyal address from the town of Birm ngham. 1 1 Every one must see something to admire in the ten. duct of his Majesty in the situation in which he had Pen placed. There could scarcely be one of greatr difficulty conceived : deprived of his principal Minister, deserted by those calling themselves his friends, his Go. vernment assailed by an ungenerous faction. In the midst of these difficulties the King seemed to be self•biassed : he watched the progress of the human mind.aod the state of the times in which he lived,and determined to appoint at the head of the Government that man who,of all others, seemed best qualified to fill the situation in which he led, placed. Mr. Canning possessed, in an eminent degree, the sagacity, the correctness of judgment, the cooper hension of mind, and decision of character. that so pecu. Early fitted him to fill the first place in the Ministry. On the loss of such a Minister, it must be supposed that his Majesty's feelings were greatly agitated. Every one must have noticed the sensation which had been produced all over the world, by the death of Mr. Can. ping; therefore there must surely have been something extraordinary in that man who, though we claimed him peculiarly as our own, illuminated other parts of the world with his maxims, which embraced within th e i r scope the whole of civili sed man wherever to be found. The first resolution was then put from the Chair, and carried unanimously. The Rev. HANN lIERNIIRDT rose to move the second Resolution. If Mr. Canning \ had continued in power, he would have been what Derd Chatham was—the greatest War Minister this country ever knew. The Rev. Gentleman then alluded to the plans Mr. Canning had formed respecting Greece, and to the project s he had in view of reducing the expenditure of the canary one million a year, and of appointing a Finance Com mittee, in order to shew the count!, its real situation. The last important act of his life was the formation of the present Ministry, in doing which he broke down the partition between the Whigs and Tories, and invited all men of talent to unite for the good of the country. This was what Mr. Canning had done for his country. The Rev. Mr. COEUR seconded the Resolution. When the Resolution was read from the Chiir, RICH. ARD BIRD, Esq. rose to propose an amendment. He said he considered this a constitutional question, at. that more was intended by this address, than met the eye. It was not for the sake of proposing a tribute to the memory of Mr. Canning that they were called there, but for the purpose of giving strength to a Ministry with which he had never been allied. He objected to the ad dress upon the principle that it was an innovat ion onthe common practice on such occasions ; for newer before the present time, was there a Meeting called in this town to condole with his Majesty on the death of a Minister, how ever great he had been. He wan:se their object was not to condole with his Majesty, but to keep in a Ministry,which he must confess was inimical to his (Mr. Bird's) feelings. The Rev. Gentleman, who so wearily eulogi.ed Mr. Canning, said, that if he had lived he would have been equal to Lord Chatham; now lie would ask whether, at the death of that celebrated Statesman, there was any Meeting held to condole with his Majesty. There was no Meeting held at the death of Mr. Pitt, Mr. Fox, or of Mr. Perceval, the latter of whom was cut off in a moment by the hand of an assassin ; and tl.erefore he was very unwilling that such a precedent should be set in the pre sent instance. He repeated, he believed this Meeting was designed for political purposes, and he referred to the hasty manner in which it had been got up, and said he knew of no previous Meeting in which more public notice of it had not been given. Objecting as he did, to the object of this Meeting, for which there was no precedent, he begged to move that they do now adjoin*. Mr. A LLPORT seconded Mr. Bird's amendment. RICHARD SPOONER, Esq. said he deplored the death of Mr. Canning as a public calamity, because he saw that he (Mr. Canning) took that line of policy, which was most likely to unite all parties in promotigg the full enjoyment of civil and religious liberty, in the finest meaning that could be given to the phrase. The amendment was put, and several voices called out " Aye ;" but the " Noes* were by far the more nu merous and more stentorian. The original resolution was then put and carried. TERTICS GALTow, Esq. moved the third resolution. Gagnon NICHOLLS, Esq. in seconding the resolutions begged to state, in reply to the observations that had, been made upon his official situation, that he stood there only as an inhabitant of Brimingham. Some conversation arose in putting the third Resells tioa, as to the substitutior of the word " hitherto' for 3
