FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. PAnts, AUGUST 10.—An attempt has been made to explain the recent events which took Place at Madrid, and to tear off the remainder of the veil which still in part covers - them. A letter, not from our usual correspondent, has given us on this subject some-interesting details, which at least merit theAttentibn of those who endeavour to make tillsmselves acsinainted with the actual silasstiph of Europe, and particul arl y . with that, Of Spain. it is said that two . projects Were scarrtemplated by the persons to whom the di'reition Of the plot which failed at Madrid on the 7th of July is attributed. Some of them, at t.'We instigation of an ecclesiastic fining a high station, AiSlied to re-establish every thing in the. same state as it existed before the Itevolution, esvhfch. began in the .Isle of Leon,—the others, while they wished to abolish the Constitution of the :Cortes, were willing to allow *Spain to retain the Semblance of a Representntive Government. They. proposed .to create two Legislative Chain ite,,r94 but to give the King sufficient power to hreik *through every 'barrier when it was neces tary,lt is added that a third, and hidden party, 1 atrioagst whose ranks are numbered some eminent pers.ens, were the chief directors of both schemes; and 'that they reserved the_power of deciding de- in favour of that one which seemed most likely to succeed.-41ithis state of things, when the guards were in open rebellion, the council of State met several times ; and some of the 'Ministers, it is said, , were the persons whe -Pleaded most powerfully to,preserve the Consti; tution of the. Cortes. Proposals were made to the.eCouncil, to r lodify the Constitutional Act, tnit:the patriotic dis Position of Sorne - of the Mem bets determined the Council to reject every pro ;o4l_ which aimed at altering - the fundamental law..--This energetic determination was soon cir culated in the interior of the Palace, where there were two battalions - of Royal Guards ; and from thit time the Ministers were. detained by force in their. respective offices, as if 'to wait for tie.:proper moment of being delivered up to the fury of the anti-revolutionists. [At Madrid ,!very Minister inhabits .a separate house, but all . the offices of the different Ministers are in the Kirig's.Palace]—Thus . pasSed the 6th and 7th oCioly. General Morillo, who. knew that the NinAters were detained in the Palace by vio lence, refused several times to go there ; and it iakriown that his,. presence and the energy of - Oen. Ballasteros Were the causes to which the li b.erty of Spain is indebted for the triumph it gained. This is not an official account, but it is more cre dited at •Madrid than any other. In fact, it is .pnerally.. believed by all the persons in a situa tion toknowthe facts and to judge of the events. , VAR's, Au 0.11.-.-T lie Political Journal of the Upper Garonne contains the following intelli gence s s --" In Andalusia, at Murcia, Carthagena, aud-Valencii, the enthusiasm of the .Royalists awl the despair of the Constitutionalists . are at their height. ; Spain is on .the eve of a great crisis, dal the rumours...industriously spread of a foreign itivasion will .haiteri - the explosion. 'l' he most authentic accounts from-Arragon state,' that this province,, though contiguous to Catalonia, is suffi .c,iently tranquil ; at Saragessa there are reckoned 1,%00 militia, infantry, and .150 -cavalry.; two bands, only have appeared in this country, one in 'the neightrourhood of Tortosa, and the - other in :the ,districts of: De Castra and Huesca, No gieat,, efforts . will be necessary to induce the .A rragonese to take arms, to say nothing of Sara go,ssa, where the party of Cornmuneros has a great ascendancy. A band of 200 men, corn . mended by the old Partisan Cubillas, has ap peared in the province . of Burgos. It is said that .Merino has again' appeared on the scene, but 41e-is is not . certain. If the Counter-Revolution luss siot..made so much progress in the provinces - of the interior, it is for want of arms and ammu 'll Qnolidienhe.) (iris:, JULY 17.—At length we hive re ceived hews from Constaritineple of the' 11th of , The, catastrophe of the . Turkish fleet has ~.leeett felt in that capital like an electric shock.

If there ever was favourable time for forcing the Porte to give . serne . of its pretenSions, the present is the time, arid, we hope by the, valour of the Greeks to ob . taio the result we'desife.

".ertainly such language could hardly be ex ;pe;cted from a Turkish writer, but this time the „misfortune is too great to be concealed. Ac cording' to the report of the Turks themselves, their heet consisted of 55 sail before the disaster At-Scio, and after it had been joined by the expe -dition which left 'Constantinople on the 4th,of dune. 'On the 7th of July there were only 35 • :vessels, consequently 20 were missing. It may • be hoped that the terror which has seized the '.',Turks will continue, and that 'Greece will be iesetted., TIy I ESTE, Sur.st 26.--/ s etters from Smyrna of 6ith July inform us, that the inhabitants of villages near Mastic," in the island of Scio, );trice met. with a terriblefate.

The Madrid papers to the 7th instant, which have reached us by express, contain a variety of details relative to the political and financial state of Spain. We shall first notice the intelligence of, the former description. The most important article is the announcement of a change of Mini stry. .It appears in the Univcrstd of the 6th, in the form of a postscript, and the following are the terms in which the statement is given " It is twelve at night, and we are informed that his Ma j.2sty has now agreed to the forMationof the new Ministry. We do not pledge ourselves for this neWs.; but the following are the persons said to be fixed on for Ministers:—viz., Don Eva risto San Miguel, Dor. Francisco Fernandes Gasco, Don Felipe Benicio Navarro, Don Antonio Martinez, Don Manuel Va- dillo, and Senor Capaz. We repeat that we do not pledge our. selves to this account, but we can assert that the new Admini. stration will be nominated to-morrow." The same Paper contains two DeCrees addressed to the Mar quis de Santa. Cruz, major domo of the palace. These decrees relieve, according to the official language, the Conde del Puebla from the office of Chamberlain, and 'the 'Marquis de"Mondejar y Belgida from the office of Master of the Horse, and appoints the Marquis de Santa Cruz to discharge the duties pro tempore. Dn these measures the Universal makes the following remarks : • " We perceive 'with satisfaction, from the above decrees, that his Majesty is at length convinced of the urgent ne csesity of making those reforms in his - royal household which the nation considers indispensable for its welfare and for the tranquillity and dignity of the Monarch. We hope that the new Chiefs of the ..Palace, who have laboured with so much zeal to enlighten the mind of die King in an affair of so much importance, will act as organs of public opinion in the appoint ment of successors to the officers who have been removed. That opinion, which is seldom deceived in the view it takes of public 'men, and which desires to see the King surrounded by persons equally distinguished for their loyalty and their attachment to the - - constitutional system, points almost unanimously to the Conde Onate-for Master of the Horse, and to the Conde Altamira for Chamberlain." General Lopez Banos, the new Minister of War, arrived in Madrid on the evening of the sth. The liberal party hailed his arrival with exultation. He was expected greatly to . influence the appointment of the other ministers, and to urge the adoption of energetic measures for defeating the wicked designs of the ex ternal and internal enemies of the liberties of Spain. Mina arrived in. he capital On the .4thinst., to confer with, the Government . on the means of tranquilizing Catalonia. The conduct of the Duke of Infantado is still regarded with suspicion. He was ordered to "Badajos, and, on his applica tion to the Government, was permitted to past to the second mi litary district; but on the express condition that he should re side in Corunna. On his way he lingered at Ponferrada, and the Government had to send fresh orders for him to proceed to his destination. Rumours had prevailed of his having headed a party of insurgents. The accounts from the provinces do not possess much in terest. Some uninteresting skirmishes with the banditti, who take the title of " Soldiere of the Faith," are detailed. It ap pears that these insurgents, though they commit great depre dations on the defenceless inhabitanti, are incapable of coming into the field in any force; and that when they do show them selves, they are invariably defeated by a very inferior number of the Constitutional troops. The leaders Of the servile bands endeavoured to turn to their •advantage the mutiny of the Guards, by spreading the report that the King was absolute in Madrid', but this manoeuvre was not attended with any suc cess. But though the hopes of the- enemies of the Constitu tional system have happily been every where disappointed, a very hostile spirit is still supposed to govern certain inmates of the Palace. Some occurrences have lately taken place, which, though trifling .in themselves, acquire importance as indications of that spirits As the circumstances to which we allude appear to have excited considerable attention at Madrid, we translate the details : ".Some time ago the Universal exposed to the public the scandalous abuses committed in the Household of the Royal Palace ; and since the memorable 7th of July, we have not ceased to complain, in common with the nation at large, that his Majesty has not removed from his service the individuals who daily disturb his repose, and compromise the august dignity of his person. The last time we spoke on this subject, we ven tured to forebode that serious evils would ensue, unless that reform should speedily be effected, which was wished for by all true friends of the constitutional throne, and we now regret to find that our fears are already beginning to be realized. " At half past five o'clock on Tuesday evening, six stones, of considerable size, were thrown from a window of the Pa ' lace, at a militiaman and a soldier of the regiment of the In fante Don Carlos, who were on duty at the place called Punta de Diamante. " The commandant of the guard, on being informed of this insult, communicated the circumstance to his Excellency Senor Don Jose de Palafox, Captain of Halberdiers, pointing out the window whence the stones had issued, and alleging that they had been thrown by a woman. His Excellency immediately proceeded to verify the fact, and it was proved that the stones had been thrown from the apartment occupied by the Senora de Logue, duenna to the Senora Infanta Donna Francisca de Asis, as it appeared by a sempstress who was in the habit of going to work by the day in the said apartment, and who, by order of his Excellency, was immediately placed in the custody of the Guard of the Palace. " These steps being taken, the Captain of Halberdiers com municated a statement of what had happened to the Chief 'Major Domo, remitting to him the letters lie had received, and the six stones which constituted the corpus delicti, in order that he might take the necessary measures for instituting a process; and his Majesty, after being informed of all, and hearing the opinion of the Counsellor of the Royal Household, was pleased to transmit to the Secretary of War the following Royal order Most Excellent Senor,—The King has made himself ac quainted with the accompanying letter of the Captain of the Halberdiers ' and with the documents to which it refers, and he has ordered me to transmit them to your Excellency, which I now do, together with the stones which were thrown at the sentinels, in order that, after they have been inspected in the office of your Excellency's department, the necessary proceed ings may be adopted. At the same time his Majesty desires me to express to your Excellency, his earnest desire for ascertaining the truth, and for the speedy punishment of the guilty : he has heard of this event with extreme sorrow, and he does not wish that his Royal Palace should become an asylum for delinquents.— Though, from the statement of the Captain of the Halberdier Guards, it appears that the person who threw the stones was not a dependent of the Palace, but a sempstress who happened to be in the Chamber of Senora de Logue, duenna to the Senora Donna Francisca de Asis, yet his Majesty has determined that all who inhabit the said apartments shall abstain from making use thereof until they have legally proved their innocence; the Fiscal who directs the inquiry being empowered freely to arrest those to whom any suspicion may attach, and to receive the de- Clarations which he may think proper, without the necessity of any farther authority. " I communicate this to your Excellency, in order that the necessary measures may be taken. In the meanwhile, the sempstress remains in custody of the main guard, by virtue of the order of the Captain of the Halberdier Guards, without my having adopted any new regulations cn the subject. " H eaven preserve your Excellency many years. " Palace, Aug. 1, - 1822. (Signed) " The MARQUIS DE SANTA CRUZ. , 4 To the Secretary of 'War." " We cannot refrain from pronouncing a ha ve ililogiutii :on the zeal and love for the King's person which have been evinced on the present occasion by the two Dixie& of the Palace, who have interposed in this scandalous affair ; - and this more and more confirms.us in the belief that it is most urgent that all the chiefs of the Royal household should act and think in the same manner. Impunity, to use no other term, has hitherto en_ couraged the persons employed about the Court, to insult pub. lie opinion.; but if their excesses were punished, we do no' think they are bold enough to face danger fur the sake of satis fying their revenge. " The offence to which we have adverted is very s erious in a military point , of view ; but bow much greater is it considering the circumstances by which it was attended ? What would be said by our enemies within and without Spain, had this provo cation occasioned the sentinels to have fired on the windows of the Palace ? This is what they wish ; to seek pretexts to ca lumniate us, and to wear out, by every means, our patieuce, in order afterwards to represent our just defence as a crime. " We once more repeat, that it is a matter of the most urgent necessity that those who live within the Palace should act and think like those who live out of it; and we are of opinion, that to repeat this day after day, is the greatest proof we can give of our love of order and our wish to preserve unimpaired the ho nour of the throne."—( Universal, Aug. 2.) - • " We are sorry to say, that there was yesterday a repetition of the insults already offered to the exterior guard of the pa lace. The following documents present a full account of this occurrence " Infantry regiment of the Infant Don Carlos.—Guard of the Royal Palace.—Excellent Sir,—l have this moment (two o'clock), while occupied at the house of my Colonel, in the dis= charge of the service and government of the regiment, received the i following notice from the second commander of this guard, Lieutenant-Colonel D. Jose Lacierra The second sergeant of the Militia, D. Joaquim Baructa, and Laureano Itotos, officer of the same rank, belonging to the regiment, who were on guard in the Punta del Diamante, have just informed me, through the medium of the chief of the Militia, D. Joaquim Estefani, who is under their command, that as the grenadier of the second company of Militia, D. Juan Francisco Escau riazea, who happened to be without his helmet at the time, was passing under the houses situated on that spot, there fell at his feet a rather large glaSs bottle, which broke to pieces on reach ing the ground, without - his knowing whether it had been thrown through malice, or had fallen by chance. Immediately on learning this, I proceeded to the spot where the circumstance took place, in order to inquire into the particulars ; and on ar riving there, . the sergeants I have mentioned above, told me that a short time ago the soldier of that guard, Valentin Villar, had seen two old shoes thrown from the third window (in which there is a palm), ‘ reckoning from the corner of the Punta del Diamante, that is, in the -upper stories, and which tell very nearly in the same place as the bottle. This is the whole of the affair, of which 1 beg to inform you in order that you may I take the necessary steps. This notice transmit to your Ex cellency, and leave it to your superior knowledge to determine what is proper to be done. Clod preserve your Excellency many years. " FRANCISCO PUIG DE S.AMPER." " Madrid, August 2. " To his Excellency the Captain of the Company of the Royal Halberdier Guards." " Royal Company of Halberdier Guards.—Excellent Se nor,—l was this morning informed by the Commander of the Exterior Guard of the Palace, D. Francisco Pui. , de Samper, that a repetition of the incident which occurred the day before yesterday, and of which I have already acquainted your Ex cellency, has taken place, with the difference that on this oc casion a large bottle was thrown from one of the windows or balconies fronting the Campo del Moro, or the corner formed by what is called the Punta del Diamante, the fragments of which I transmit to your Excellency. Previous to the infor mation given to his Majesty of the occurrence, I went to exa mine in person the whole of the front indicated, taking with me the second Commander of the Guard, D. Jose la Sierra, and having been informed whichof the windows had been open at the time of the occurrence, I called on the Minister of the Marine, when I found it was impossible that the bottle and the shoes, which were also thrown, and which I send to your Excellency, could have been thrown .from these windows. By advice of the Minister, I proceeded to the upper apartments of the - Palace, and, accompanied by the Senora Guarda Mayor, I visited the - apartments of the Marchioness Dowager of Cas tromonte, formerly Lady of the Chamber to the Infanta Donna Francisca de Asis, and now one of the Queen's Ladies of Ho nour, and having examined the windows with great minute ness, I can only say, that while I feel the gravity of this at tempt, I see with grist, that the steps taken to detect its au thors have hitherto pioved unsuccessful ; since the three win dows in the front of the said Senora's apartments, from which alone the offence mild have been committed, are covered with iron lattice work. .(Signed) "J. JOSE de . PALAFOX Y MELCI. " Madrid, August 2. " To his Excellently the Major Domo of the Palace." The..next documei is a letter from the Major Porno to the Secretary of War, in which he states that. the documents rela tive to this second offence had been laid - before the King, who desired the affair to be farther investigated. " We have little to 2dd to the reflections which we made, in giving an :account of the first offence of this kind, committed a few days ago. We then praised the zeal of the chiefs of the pa lace,- who investigated that business, and we now consider our. selves bound to express similar approbation; hut that is not sufficient. As little is it sufficient that his Majesty should merely manifest in the strongest terms his indignation at such criminal excesses, since it is evident that those who arrogate to themselves the title of friends to the King, do not obey him, unless what he orders be couthrinable to their passions and their interests. Unfortunate is it for Kings to have such friends, who serve only to compromise them " We conclude by repeating what we often before have said, and what we never can cease to repeat, when speaking on this subject. Let good officers be appointed fur the palaces, men who think like the two Chiefs lately nominated, and let each have the power of making the necessary reform in his depart ment. We shall then speedily see an end to such scandalous transactions, and the mansion of the Monarch will no longer be the object of public execration. If this be not dune, we cannot venture to predict how far the evil-disposed may be able to compromise the security of the Throne.".—( Universal, Aug. 4.) We learn that the military jurisdiction is occupied with the processes instituted relatiVe to the disagreeable events of the 30th of July and the 2d of the present mouth, when the outer guard of the palace was insulted ; and we anxiously wish to see an account of the result of these inquiries, more espe cially when we are assured that the sehipstress who was held to have thrown the -stones has been set at liberty. We have no doubt that the Military Judges appointed to conduct these in quiries will spare no pains to ascertain the truth, and to disco ver the origin of such malpractices. It is very important to pursue the investigation in these matters as far as human dili gence can go ; for it will in all probability, be disccvered that these and other excesses, which we daily observe, are subordi nate to the general plan which the enemies of our liberty have formed, for the purpose of withdrawing us from the constitu tional path which we have chosen, and precipitating us into the abyss whither they ardently wish to hurl us."—( Universal, Aug. 6.) FINANCE. There are in theie papers .several articles containing state ments respecting the Spanish finances, but of which we have only room for a brief notice. advertisement frOm the office of the Minister of Finance, dated the Ist., _statzs, that until the end of: the present month propositions will be received from capitalists, both national and foreign, for the purchase of the 13 millions of 5 per cent. renter, the issue and sale of which was authorized by a decree of the Cortes of the 29th of June last. On the Ist instant Senors del Moral, Pardo, and Suarez del Villar, entered on execution of their functions. The first takes charge of the office for the examination, recognition, and liqui dation of the documents of the public debt ; the second is coin , missioned to superintend the incorporation and alienation of the property consigned to the same object; and the third is ,exclu sively charged with all the national property applicable to pub lic credit, and with the collection of the duties thereto appro pr4ted. In consequence of the falling in of certain annuities, and reduction of various claims, it is estimated that the public debt of Spain, with or without interest, up to June, 1820, does not amount to more than 5,000 millions of reals (about 50 mil lions sterling.) For the liquidation of • this capital, the Cortes have appropriated the sequestrated property of the royal patri mony, of the Inquisition, suppressed monasteries, &c. &c., which are estimated at nearly 8,000 millions. But the sales have hitherto produced about 80 per cent. more than their valua tion. It is therefore probable, that the whole of the national property will produce double the sum at which it has been esti mated. The decree of the Cortes, authorizing a loan of 50 millions of reals for the Ministry of the Marine, is officially published in the papers of the 3d instant. An abstract of the budget fixes the charges for the public service of the year commencing with the Ist of July last at 664,813,324 reals. The ways and means are calculated to cover this expenditure. Among the items under the last head, the revenue on articles of consumption is estimated at 100,000,000 reals. A memorial, addressed to the Minister of the Interior, has been published by Do n Vicente Bertr an de Lis. in which on . certain considerations, •to furnish all the be required foe carr yi ng on .a ll the pub licmtheeramoorialrictistwphirocphosmeseiy works of acknowledged utility in different parts of Spain.

SULEN Qlll5 DICERE FALSUM AUDEAT LONDON, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 14, 1822. We received this morning the Paris Papers o Sunday, from which we give extracts in a pre ceding column. The intelligence respecting Spain is highly interesting, and if confirmed will materially tend to the restoration of tranquillity in that distracted country. I t is asserted that the Austrian Court is not disposed any more than the British Cabinet t o second the views of the counter-revolu- tionists in the Peninsula, but has determined to leave them to their own efforts and resources. Another circumstance of considerable impor ante to Spain is the certainty that the ma lady which afflicted the crew of a ship from the Havannah is not the yellow fever, as was at first apprehended. The following extraordinary statement is taken from an Ultra Paper. If cor rect, it leaves no doubt of the participation of King FERDINAND in the late ,connter-revolu tionary attempt at Madrid, and places the conduct of his MAJESTY in no very favourable light : It is said that Colonel SAINT MICHEL, accompanied by the two other reporters in the affair of the Officers of the Guard, lately had a private audience of the KING (of Spain), and ex plained the difficult situation in which he found 'himself with respect to his MAJESTY, and to-the Officers against whom he was preparing to proceed, in consequence of their producing, in vindication of their conduct, autograph letters from his MAJESTY. He added, that under such circumstances he came to take the KING'S directions, and to endeavour to lighten the terrible charges laid against those unfortunate Officers. His MAJESTY answered in an ill humoured tone. "It is true the letters are mine. Well ! what does that signify ? So much the worse for them (the officers) they knew that my orders were null and void, unless countersigned by the Mini sters; why did they execute them ?" " But yet," replied Saint Michel, " your MAJESTY will not abandon those unfor tunate men!" " You are charged with the prosecution," re turned the KING, " carry it on with activity, for I will hear nothing more about it." It would appear that the late successful enter prize of the Greeks against the Ottoman Fleet has struck the greatest panic into the Turks at Constantinople, and in other towns, and has.pro duced a correspondent elevation in the Greek Nation, calculated to lead it to the most noble efforts in achieving its independence.— Very beneficial effects have also resulted from their defeat of the Egyptian armament against . Candia, and report says that the Paella of Egypt is now negociating with the Greek autho rities of Hydra and Spezzia. We regret to be under the necessity of adding that these successes of the Greeks have led to the perpetration by the Turks of the most dreadful atrocities on the remaining defence. less inhabitants of the ill-fated Scio, for the heart-rending particulars of which we refer to the article from Trieste. Yet these are the monsters -whom the Christian Gosiernments of Europe are supporting against the nation to whose ancestors civilized Europe owes 'so heavy a deb t of gratitude. German and Dutch Papers to a late . date ar rived yesterday. The latter inform us, that subscriptions for the relief of the Irish continued to be received by the Church wardens of tho Episcopal Church of Amsterdam.

The mingled seusations of grief and dismay,—of sympathy for the tortured feel ings of his suffering Lady and afflicted friends , and of apprehension for the political consequenc es which may ensue to the State,—of reverence and compassion for the illustrious victim himself, and of a kind of horror and - alarm at the frightful evidence which this deplorable event affords of the frailty of our nature, even when it is de' veloped in its firmest and happiest forms,—occa' sion altogether a degree of confusion and deje c " tion,—a consciousness of infirmity, a sense of humiliation, a passion (if we may so speak) °I heartfelt grief and agonizing recollections, that plunges the mind into powerless stupor, a rid oppresses it with the idea of its own imbecilityl —From the letter of the Duke of WELLINGT° to Dr. BANKIIEAD, it appears that his Grace had distinctly observed, ou Friday, the aberradol' of mind with which his Noble Friend 103 been visited.
