Accounts from Madrid, ieceived this morning, dated the 24th ult. state, that all the Ministers of the Foreign Powers in that capital, were assembled in Council, but the cause was not known. Letters from Bayonne state, that a general report prevailed there, that a body of new French troops were going to enter Spain, to relieve the garrisons on the side of Portugal; but this report is only attributed to 300 Siviss soldiers, wl►o were on their march to replace others whose time of service had expi►ed. Accounts from Constantinople, dated the l 1 th of October, state, that another fire took place there, which only consumed one house and a towy. The Fiench Papers to Tuesday do not 'amain any thing very important. Some details connected with the state of Greece, are extracted elsewhere.

Its effects cannot fail ultimately to change the face of ailiirs in Greece. ODESSA, Ovresta 18. The following is the substance of the important ad ditional Convention proposed by the Russian Commis. missioners at Akermann, and acc•pted by the. Turkish Negociators. The atticle concerning Servia will pro bably mike a great impression on all the Greeks: Aar. I. Confirmation of the Treaty of Bucharest, which is to he considered as inserted at full length in the present Convention. 11. Determination of the frontier in Bessarabia, according to Art. IV. of the Treaty of Bucharest. The frontiers are to be de termined as fixed in the protocal of the conference of the 21st of August, 1817, between Baron Strogonoff and the Turkish Com imksioners. lII.—All preceding conventions relating to the Principalities of 31oklavia and Wallachia are confirmed. The Porte engages to re new the liatti Sacral, of 1802, within six months after the signing of the present Convention. In consideration of the present situation of these provinces, and it having been thought fit to intrust the Go vernment of them to Moldavian and Walachian Boyars, an alter native to which Russia has assented, the Porte accedes to the clauses which have been specified fur this object in the concessions. Tlsese cbuses relate to the choke of the Princes, which, according to ancient custom, is to be made by the two Divans, and confirmed by the Poste, which is only to give the investiture to the new Hoe podars; to the re-eligibility of the Hospodars, their disposition, re. signation, and the duration of their Government; to regulations for the levy of the taxes and ground rents, and the entire remission of these ground rents fur two years; to the return of the Boyars wbo have emigrated during the revolution, and the number of Bescilis, and Risch-Beschil-Agas, which is fixed by the Hospodars and the respective divisions, without any deviation from the propo sition fixed before the year 1821. I V.—As Russia, in conformity with the 34 Art. of the Treaty of Bucharest, has restored to the Porte the conquered fortified places In Aria, the frontiers between the two empires shall continue hence forth as it now is. V.—The advantages promised to the Servians by the sth Article of the Treaty of Bucharest, shall be given to them in the course of a year after the signing of the present convention. These advan tages as the Deputies require them, are—the levying of the taxes and ground rents once for all; the return of the districts (some villages) detached from Servia; freedom of trade, permission to I with their. own passports; freedom of reli g i on , an d o f the administration of justice; the administration of estates situated in Servia belonging to Turkish owners, but with the ehfigaticn te give an account of the produce; the establish ment of Schools and Printing-offices; the exclusion of the Turks from Servia, except garrisons in the fortresses, &c. " Every other demand to be made by the Settling, which is not incompatible with the duty of good subjects to the Sultan, shall be granted by the Porte." Vl.--lUquidations of the concerns, and claims of the subjects of .both parties, including the robberies of the Barbary Corsairs, and the damage done since 1821,by the violation of the existing treaties, A mixed Comnibsion shall conclude this liquidation in eight months. and the gross amount of the sums to be fixed shall be paid to the Hessian Legation at Constantinople. V I L—This article is divided into four points.-1. All the points contained in the 7th Article of the Treaty of Jassy,in regard to the Barbary Power., are retained; snd the Porte farther engages, in t h e time of two anoutlis after the delivery of the reclaniations of the Raman Leghtion to make rood to the ltussian Legation out of the Intperial treasury, every iniury done by the Barbary States, in case the Tatter shall not ininiedi stely do so themselves, in compliance with the first firtuans to be MILLI eased to them for the purpose. 2. The l'orte promises to fulfil all the obligations Ivid upon it by the commercial treaty with Russia of 1783, and especially the Ist,' Slit, and 35th Artieks, as Well as everythlog that guarani"s the free passage of ships dotter the Russian Ss& - S. The Porte graiti thdltrinsibipment of goods, and hinders every WO:math:la. 4. The Porte accepts the good °Meet of Russia, with respect to the admission of all flap into the Mack , Sea, that have hitherto been excluded [fens it. ratifications of the present Convention shall take place within four weeks, or sooner, if possible. Parliament will meet on Tuesday next ; and Minis ters are, of course, engaged i r preparing the necessary business to be brought forward. A week, however, will elapse before either House can proceed to the dispatch of the important business which is expected to occupy it. The first day will be occupied—in the Lords by the necessary form of the LORD CataxcgcLon ordering, in the KING'S name, the attendance of the Commons, and communicating to them his MAJESTY'S pleasure, that thy proceed forthwith to the election of a SPEAKER In the Commons, the Loan Hioll STEWA RD will attend at an early hour, to swear in such Members as may be in attendance; and on the return of these from the House of Lords, they will proceed to elect a SPEAKER. On'the Right Honourable Gentleman's taking the Chair, he will be complimented nn the occasion; immediately after which the House will adjourn. Wednesday the SPEAKER will attend in the House of Lords, where his MAJESTY'S approbation of his election will be given by Commissi-n.,' On his return to the Conimons House, after a short ad dress, he will proceed to ‘wear in the Members; and this ceremony will be continued in both Houses for the remainder of the week. On the Monday following (the 20th), thibusiness of the Session will be opened by a Royal Speech ; but whether by his MAJESTY in person, of by Commission, has not yet been determined. Some proceedings are likely to take place, when the House of Commons meet, which are not anticipated by the public, and, consequently, the business before the ad journment will partake of more interest than many persons imagine. Petitions against, and others in favour of, the Corn Laws, are in readiness to be presented; but the motion for their repeal will not be made until Par liament re-assembles after the Christmas holidays.— Petitions in favour of Catholic Emancipation will also be presented, and the . discussion on these will produce some novelty, arising out of the transactions in Ireland during the General Election, with respect particularly to the Forty Shilling Freeholders. Ministers, so long as they pursue their present liberal system, will doubtless have a powerful support in both Houses. Our domestic concerns will occupy chiefly the attention of the Legis lature ; as with respect to his Majesty's relations with Foreign Powers there is nothing likely to arise to disturb the harmony that exists between them. PARIS. Nov.s.—The Municipal Body of Paris waited ao the Kixo yesterday. to compliment him on the day of his fete, to which be gave the following answer : " I receive with the greatest pleasure the sentiments of my good Citizens of Paris ; assure them, Gentlemen, of my affection towards them, and believe that my interest and protection shall never be wanting towards the welfare of their commerce, and that all my efforts shall be constantly em ployed for the happiness of France, which will be the means of rendering me happy; and I am certain that all the Magistrates of my capital will unite with me in the seal to augment and consoli date the prosperity of the inhabitants, and the glory of France." Wirinscia, Nov. B.—Both yesterday and this day the favourable alteration of the weather has enabled his Masson' tb resome his airing in the Great Park, which he enjoyed each day from two o'clock until nearly Eve, accompanied by the Lord Sssward in his potty phaeton, followed by others of his suite. His Royal Highness the Duke of YORK is daily im proving in health ; so much so, that at present, his Royal Highness writes as well as when he was in the enjoyment of perfect health. The Royal Doke lees more visitors than he has been in the habit of doing for some time past. The Bishop of Looms was among the visitors yesterday. A number of distinguished personages leave their names as in q uirers after his Royal Highness's health. Pester. day Sir HZNILT Dr. MACIIIICMAIL, Mr. MACOIII4IO% and Mr. Summon, attended his Royal Highness.

Let a wan only place himself in the centre of the choir of Westminster Abbey, and look wp, and how low he must for ever after look down upon modern architects. It is stated is letters from Madrid of the 26th ult. that the King of SPAIN has strongly censured the conduct of the Governor of Ayamonte, for the welcome reception which he gave to the Portuguese refugees. Those rebels are ordered from the frontier, and are to be dispersed over the interior of the kingdom. The vintage in France has been this year most abun. dant, and the grapes of the very finest quality, and it is said that a period of nearly 50 years has elapsed since they have had so great a crop, either in quantity or quality, as the wine of 1826 will, it is said, be long highly prized and eagerly sought after. The crop of apples has also been very great, and a Gentleman who lately travelled through Normandy, says that the Tuna tity of cider will be this year immense. _ _ Saturday night, as Mrs. King was walking down the Circular-road, near Dublin, she was met by a man who presented a pistol to her breast, and called on her to deli% er. She asked who he was? He replied very candidly, 44 a highwayman." Mrs. King, no way daunted, with Amazonian Courage, tipped him a facer, and felled him to the ground. As soon as he got up,the fellow to. k to his scrapers, and Mrs. King walked off the mistress of the field.

In the Insolvent Debtor b ' Court, yesterday, John Cope was opposed by Charles Clarke in person. The insolvent had been foreman to his opposing creditor, who was a manufacturer of gas apparatus, and, having been in trusted with the receipt of money, was discovered to have appropriated different small sums to his own use. The repet;tion of this offence, after a solemn promise. to the contrary, was the cause of Mr. Clarke's opposi. tion. Some invoices were produced, the amount of which he had contrived to receive or to get credit for, twice over, by means of altering•tbe dates. He 'crab remandrd for six months from Mc day of filing his petition. Sllt WALTER SCOTT. • PROM THE GA2IIIIII Di YILIINCZ Of MONDAY. • Amongst the multitude of indiiiduab who filled the Utiles in Saturday (Charles Xth's hinh.day), Sir Walter Scott and bis daughter were observed with the greateit interest. The King, by a maxi' of distinction the more flattering, because it was exclusive, allowed the illustrious Scotchman to be placed on his passage in the glans galley, where only Ladies are usually admitted. His Majesty paid with a few words full of elegance the labours of the historian of the misfortunes of the Stuarts, the writer who dedicated some affecting lines to the exile of the House of Bourbon. The King, afterwards, with as much delicacy as kindness, conversed in English with the handsome and timid Miss Anna Scott. FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. Princess Lieven left town yesterday for Brighton.

This morning, as early as half•past eight o'clock, St. James's-street was rendered almost impassable, in con sequence of the sadden fall of that magnificent building, the Guard's Club House. It appears, that only a few months ago the establishment underwent a complete , repair; and in order to make it more roomy,"the party wall on the south side bad been cut in half, and four inches raised against it, which had materiajly weakened it: in addition to this, the houses adjoining it.having been pulled down, in order to be rebuilt, so that the wall lost all its support. Yesterday afternoon, and indeed for twe or three days, supporters had been raised against it, in hopes that its falling might be prevented; and, indeed, every precaution was adopted by the sur veyors, and other Gentlemen connected with the works, to save the building. About one o'clock this morning the establishment closed, and all the members left, and the Steward, Mr. Stone, his family, and the domestics, retired to rest. Mr. and Mrs. Stone, and their infant child, a little girl about three years old, slept in the back attic, upon which floor the housemaids also slept ; and on the second floor in the back room slept the waiter and other men en gaged in the house. About half-past six o'clock this morning the two housemaids and the kitchen maid arose to do their morning's work, leaving Mr. and Mrs. Stone, and the rest of the individuals fast asleep in their beds. And at about half-past seven one of the master builders (we believe a Mr. Todd), observed the party wall above alluded to, to bulge out very much, and he imme diately suspected that its fall would immediately take place ; and he therefore ran into the house, and cried out, " For Gon's sake, leave the premises if you wish to save your lives, for the house will fall almost directly?' The servants that were up instantly ran up stairs, and informed their master and mistress of the danger that awaited them, and also roused their fellow servants; and all lost no time in deserting the house, and leaving it and all the property therein to its fate. Not two minutes had elapsed after the inmates had escaped, before t'e whole of the party wall fell down with a tremendous crash, from the roof to the basement, and then the roof, having no support, fell in with such force, that the materials carried the ponderous beams and rafters through the billiard-room, drawing-room, down to the coffee-room; but such is the extraordinary man ner in which the materials have fallen, that very little damage to what might be expected has been done to the furniture in the rooms through which they passed. The billiard-table, and the four beautiful globular gas burners surmounting it, remain untouched, not even a glass of the lamps is broken, and in the drawing-room, the elegant chandeliers, of which this establishment so much boasted, are scarcely injured, and may be seen from the street. We really believe, from the curious manner in which the roof fell in, that had not Mr: and Mrs. Stone and their little girl escaped, they wouldhave remained unhurt, as a beam fell in thatpositien that en tirely secured the bedstead from being buried with the rubbish. Immediately after the accident a party of the foot guards were stationed about the building to protect the property that is now buried under the rubbish final peculation,and messengers were dispatched to the Noble. men forming the Managing Committee, to acquaint them of the disastrous event ; and, in a short time Ater, Colonel Grenthorp, Lord F. Paulett e and Sir Archibald Murray arrived, and remained about the ruins Cot several hoots. There can be no doubt but the weak state of the party wall, and the circumstance of the workmen having dug six or seven feet below the foundation, in order to build the adjuinlim house., was the cause of :he accident. Wnat is most fortunate is, that no lives Here lost, as just before the wall fell, there were from 80 to 100 men at work underneath it, but at the moment 4 - its fall they were all gone to breakfast. To prevent my accident, men have been set to v o k to pull down 'the totttring remains. BRIGHTON. Nov. 7.

LAMEN I ABLE ACCIDENT. ---- • GRIMSBY, RIVER-HUMBER, Nov. 7. A lamentable accident has just occurred here, where. by one man has been killed ; one of whom has bern brought on board the United Kingdom steam ship, drowned; and there are two or three others missing, who, it is to be feared, have shared the same fate. The accident was this: The United Kingdom came into this harbour, having been driven in by the badness of the weather, and most of the passengers of the abovenamed vessel were embarked on board the steam boat Graham, going up to Hull, which the passengers preferred to remaining until a change of wind and weather. T: ere are, besides what is mentioned, about twenty severely scalded, by the bursting of the boiler in the Graham ; and two have had their skulls fractured. 'Dime were on board the United Kingdom, very providentially, two or three Medical Gentlemen, who rendered every assistance in their power, particularly a Dr. HUTCHISON, who ex erted himself exceedingly. Not any of the passengers of the United Kingdom have lost life, or been in any way materially injured. EXTRACT OR ANOTHER LETTER RECEIVED THIS MORRIE°. a The United Kingdom steamboat having eve rienced very bad weather on her passage to Edinburgh, the passengers, off Hull, were determined to go on shore: in consequence of which, the Graham steam boat came out for that purpose; and after the pas sengers got on board the Graham, through so- e unforeseen accident, the boiler burst. Unfortunately, five men were killed, and twenty badly scalded." ANOTHER LETTER. The following letter from the agent to Lloyd's, dated Hull, Nov. 7, has been received this morning :—" Ar rived the United Kingdom, Oman, steam ship, from London to Leith; left Southend on Saturday the 4th, at four rm. and was obliged to put into the Humber on Sunday, and brought up in Grimsby Roads at five P.M. She weighed again yesterday morning at eleven,but after proceeding about eight leagues to the northward, again hove up, and brought up in Grimsby Roads, at two P.M. Several of the passengers being desirous of coming up here in order to proceed by land, the Graham, Grimsby steam packet, this morning went alongside the United Kingdom, to receive them. About twenty got on board, and, when nearly ready for leaving the ship, the Graham's boiler burst, and I am truly concerned to add, that five persons are killed or drowned, and about twenty others very seriously scalded, or otherwise hurt, most of whom belong to Grimsby or Hull. I believe none of the passengers belonging to theEnited King dom are hurts The Graham was subsequently towed up by the United Kingdom, at 4. SO P.m." NAVAL IN fELLIGENCE. Yesterday st Court of Directors was held at the East India House, when the following ships were taken up and thus stationed, viz.—Warren Hastings, Captain Gamma Mason; Princess Char lotte of Wales, Captain Cnaurrovnza 13.0114 ; and Minerva, Capt.

The cargo of the Albion, of Leith, is being landed by the Admiralty Court, and, it is feared, is much damaged. The Tales of a Voyager, announced for public/ viols. consist, we understand, of about Twelve Stories, told at Sea, during a Voyage to the Polar Ocean, and connected with a loldrra.. tire of the actual Progress of the Vessel, as lately made from England to that dreary region. This is certainly an original idea. and, if well executed, cannot fail to be very attractive. 'fiat sufficient comfort to admit of a resort to the pastime of Tale-telling. should be obtained in exploring the desolation of the " icy North," is a great triumph of the skill and enterprise of civilized man. It affords, at all events, a striking contrast to the diversion of eaccio's Florentine Dames and Cavaliers, who related their 'torte* in the luxurious gardens and sunny fields of Italy.—Morw. Chibta. Tuesday Sir RICHARD liiltNlst, Chief Magistr..te of the Public Office, Bow.street, accompanied by the principal Magis trates of the other Police Offices, made a Report at the Office of the Secretary of State for the Home Department, of the state of the Police in the metropolis.

The man' was immediately sent for, and identified the prisoner. A 'bill of indictment was preferred before the Grand Jury, and found, when she was put forthwith upon her trial, found Guilty, and sentenced to transportation for 14 years, all within the space of two hour..
