'the day of the 3d was emploied' in negotiations. It is said that the Guards demand an abolition of the decree which reorganizes the Royal Guard, and a complete pu rification of the National Guard of Madrid. The Alunicipality or Junta of the city met yesterday, and came to the resolution of inviting the King to repair to t h e H ote lle de with his family.

MADRID, JULY 7.—When at the conclusion of our article last night we said that the violent state of Madsid could not last long, the battalion of the rebel guards had already formed a plan for fullfillind our prophecy. They ascribed to weakness the peace which we left them to enjoy. The protestations which they made, and the ca pitulation which they proposed, were intended to lull us asleep and to inspire us with eonfidence. They meth tatted projects of vengeance, and ettrkwoured to nip, in the blood of their brothers, the chains they prepared for as. But Heaven disconcerted their wicked plans, and the slaves have received tire nimishaiteni. due to their per jury. We should wish to relate all the mew-mimes of this (lay, and to omit limiting whi.:lt has ciaaracterised the heroie patriotism of our pliant ,leienders. But we shall wait tail bone belies all ill fact , to light, and limit ourselver to an outline of the transactions of this memo rable day. At three o'clock in tlitm l antin7 the battalions of the guard who had encatulecl its the Prado penetrated into eapi.ai, throwing down ilie ; late of Conde Daque.— Tbia plan, airfril, ears , was to limn thcrualves in IllrCe +Omens ; o.lc - 01 - whou WIS to attack the park of and- Ivry, another to disarm the national militia, which had encamp d m the ;.guar,: of the Onintittition, and the shin' to ..kc possession of the Puerta del Sol, and in paid the st.stlll which led to it, Of these poijecte, th. ~sly one they su,:ceeded in executing w.s the third; hu. the occupation of this post roe hat rendered .tW•in attast,;tx of the two others, was of no service to the tat, and rather *exposed them to the deli at which they re ceived in a short time.

' Do you means have mit the city, and two others replied the Colo- i who, immediately on their debarkatioii ...._ -~~ giftf+ MI PRICE 91a. had fled hither, should form tents, and retire without arms to their t:esiiited quarters. Then it was seen that, although the contagion which had spread among the corps of the guards was great. there were many who joined on compulsion, and by an ill-understood sense of honour, the party of the reducers; for manyof them immediately deserted their companions. and repaired to their quarters, shouting for the Constitu tion. Others.rfistrusting, doubtless, the generosity of theirconquerors,or acoused by ding 000nsiencen for past admen, fled, throwing away their mewls; but some par. :rut of Cavalry, the national militia. and some pieces of *fiery, pursued the fugitives on the road to Estrema dur I, and at present there are arriving a great number of ((moulded and prisoners. The most complete tranquillity now reigns in the ca. Intel, and it appc.rs almost impossible that the gallant men, whose ardour has been so excited during the day. viewing the perfidy of their enemies, should have beets / able to recover, in so short a time after their triumph. that generosity and composure which are the distinction of these heroes. . All who have witnessed the attacks of this morning • agree that troops of the line never fuultht with more order or more bravery than the militia. l'hey advanced boldly forward at the voice of their chiefs, and without a discordant sound; alter their triumph they shouted alone for the Constitution, and I even heard a militiaman re prove a prisoner for the reproaches which he uttered against his seducers. We have not been able as yet to ascertain how many dead and wounded there have been in the different encounters, but the highest estimate does not make the number of militia amount to half a dozen, a loss extremely small, considering the importance of the victory, but deeply to be deplored, when we reflect that this force is comp osal of proprietors of land, merchants, - respectable artisans, and fathers of families. who sacri ficed themselves to defend our liberties. dentaaited guarantees for itis life, threatened by a renal. Bean faction. Secondly, he demanded the advise or the State Council, as to the best means of making return to their duty with honour, the soldiers who had 'wet' i4l - to depart from strict discip'ine byreiterated iisulis of the Liberates. Thirdly, he called upon the Council to impeach General Riego, who had wished to hH the contitiand of the troops. Fourthly. the Council were rall.d upon to explain their views with respect to the • dignity of the Crown awl tintilnyal•Pcir • 04i the 6th the Council of State made the ollowin,; reply:— First, They could not give to the King any anaraory for the preservalon of his life, in ease the people, jersey irritated, should attack th e R o yal Residence, in order to purge it of the odious soldiers retained as guards. Seconuly. The only means of calming the agitation, o..ai to plow h with the utmost rigour the rebel guards. Thirdly, They considered the conduct of Gen. Riego praisett unity, and they urged that his Majesty should not sel , ..ct against the General accusations publ shed by a Jrmit t .il sold to the holy —(The Impartial.) Fowl dily, The Council of State knew no other tto y hlti that of delentlitig the Consti mitt's. and that its intmhz:s were drteruum:d to discharge ir. i His lit.joity, in a new mission, made an expose of the !I'm? of things, and mentioned, that in Collt,t quence of rcp....iwil .teis a taitist his authority and petsun, the social contract was considered as dissolved.
