LISBON, Joss
A Portuguese merchantman, from the Canaries, en-
tered the Tagus on the 20th, baying on board 140 non-
commissioned Officers and soldiers of the Spanish Re-
giment of the Queen. This Regiment was in garrison
at the Canaries, and the troops freighted the vessel tocon-
vey them.to Portugal. These deserters, who brought
their arms with them, and who were disarmed on their
landing, arrived here to-day, and atter an hour's halt,
were sent to the depot at Belem. Their Regiment was
last year sent from Ceuta to the Canaries, because the
Government suspeged it not to be favourable to the
sy.tem which refills in Spain. The Regiment is
chiefly composed of old soldiers. Besides. this, 160
Spanish deserters, from different points of the frontier;
arrived "yesterday at Aldea Galega. This detachment
has been sent to the depot at Santarem.
In the 'night of the 24th, 250 men of the 7th Regi-
ment of the Lioe, a corps noted for its opposition to the
Charter, attempted to desert from Lisbon. The agents
of this sfduction had arranged with.the boatwien who.
convey the filth of Lisbon to the other side of the Tagus,
for carrying this desertion into effect. However, a sen-
tinel on one of the quay., where the deserteit were to
have been embarked, haying observed an _unusual
.umber of boats collected together, suspected .that
something improper was going on, ,and called the at-
tention of the Officer commanding the post to the cir-
cumstance, who ott his part reported it • to the Com-
mandant of She place. Measures.were immediately
adopted to prevent the desertion,. and 44 soldiers were
arrested at the moinept, whenithey were preparing to
step on hoard the beats., Tire
_bribery to desert was
carried on almost public(, at,* rate of SO francs per
man, with the promise of double
.pay. as•anms as they
should:arrive on sly Spn,hish fiontiars.

rebels.

The decree for the convocation of the Extraordinary
Cortes is not yet published. This decree is, without
doubt, earnestly desired by the wishes of the sound part
of the nation, because it is impossible not to be sensible
rof the urgent necessity which calls for the enactment of
thine constitutional laws without which the Charter is a
vain name, without reality and without practical ap-
plication. However, it cannot be dissembled, that if
the Ministeriarproposition on this subject should be
opposed to the views of the British embassy, the vital
measure which is the object-of that proposition will not
be sanctioned by the Princess Regent. We are lost in
conjecture as to the secret motives which constantly.
produce with a remarkable tenacity the direction of
the English influence in Poitugsl towards the object of
neuirali zing, or at least delaying those measures which
can alone give the Constitutional Government the at-
titude calculated to enable it to repress the attacks of
its internal enemies, without seeking the aid of foreign
auxiliaries whose co-operation should only be vequirect
for iepellingexternal attacks. It is in fact well knoin,
that it all the provisions of the Charter were fairly ex-
ecuted, the • national 'resources, physical and moral,
which might be employed without in the,slightest de-
gree overstepping she limits traced by the Charter,
would secure, the consolidation of the
system.

Thalia accounts from Vida Real announce that the
rebel Manoel da Rosa Coelho has published an incen-
diary groclamation, in which he assures the inhabitants
of the provinces that Don Magnet will soon return to
Portugal at the head of a Spanish army.

The publication of the order for dissolving the army
of observation is 'daily expected ; 'already the corps of
infantry of the guard, which make part of that army,
have received orders to return to their old cantonments
at Accala, Segovia, and Loganea. As for the cavalry,
it will remain at Talavera ; the infantry of the line will
also remain there; but as for the light infantry, all that
which makes a part of the army of observation will go
to the provinces t.f Catalonia, Valencia, and Arragon.
The formation of a National Council is still spoken of.
It is said that rather serious troubles have broken out
at Alge.iras.

" Since the rejection by the Porte of the propos eloof
.Russia, England, and France, for the pacificationof
Greece, no doubt is er.teitained here tbat the Treaty
concluded between those three Powers on the bases of
the protocol of St. Petersburgh, of the 4th of April,
1826, will be delivered to the Divan at Constantinople,
as the uliimAtum, and that a period of 40 days will be
fired for its acceptance. If the Porte again refuses; the
Ministers of the three Powers are to leave Constan-
tinople, and Consuls will be sent to Greece to open an
intercourse With the Greek authorities. Besides this,
the fleets of the three Powers, withont, however, taking
.4107,hostile measures, are 46 hinder the further convey.
-ante by the Turkish and. Egyptian fleets of troopi and
supplies to the revoked countries. Those, if we may
believe respectable persons, are the tonsures that will
be irrevocably employed against the Porte, and it can-
not be denied that they may be efficacious. It is affirm-
ed, however. that Prussia and Austria have not yet
acceded to this Treaty. These resqufions would.ost-
plain the conduct of M. de Ribeaupierre.roi some time
past."
The harvest is begun in the department of the Ain.
The rye is almost everywhere cut down; the wheat,

flowered without accident, and it is stated that:Owe is

VIENNA:, Juv 5. ,
Letters front, Corfu of 7th June give the following
particulars
" A letter just received from Zante of the 2d inst.
states that on the Slst of May, in the afternoon, the ape.
pearance of Turkish vessels off the island was announced.
On the following morning they were founti to be the
fleet from Constantinople, consisting of 27—viz, one of
the line, eight frigates, 12 corvettes, four brigs, and two
schooners: it cruise.' the whole day on the coast of the
Morea. Lord Cochrane, who with the Hellas frigate
was between the Scrophes and Patras, felt that position
on the approach of the Turkish fleet, and during the
&kw** of the Ist remained between the Scrophes and
Ithaca. On the 2d the Turkish fleet was.near Castel
Tornese, anfl Lord Cochrane had removed to'st greetei
distance from the station he occupied' on the riot.; The
Great einem-boat Kn.-seri% not with him, slot-

other Greek vessel. The prizes he had taken ternainea
behind the Hellas. As soon as the arrival of the Turkish
fleet was known in Zante, the Greek Committee there
sent off two expresses to give notice to Lord Ciichrane.
His Lordship's nephew had arrived on the Slit of May
at the Lazzaretto in.Zante, where he will perform qua-
rantine, and then, it is said, go to Marseilles. Tne Sir
Frederick Adam steam-bort, which left Phis place on
the morning of the sth to go to the other lonian Islands,
waif met in the afternoon by some of the ships" of the
Turkish fleet. Capt. Thomas, the Commander, being
asked by the Tut ks who he was, replied, that he belong-
ed to the Anglo-lonian Governinent, on which be was
suffered to proceed on his voyage ; but they 'first asked
him whether he knew where Lord Cochrane was,
as the Turkish ships 'were looking for
Another letter from Corfu, of the 10th of Joae, says,
The Sir Frederick Adam steam-boat, wbjcb-sltowld
have returned yesterday at. three its the afternoon, did
not arrive OW ten at night. The reason of this delay
is the following :-.‘Yesterday morning, when this ves-
sel left Santa Manta, to return hither. it met two
Turkish frigates. Continuing its course, with the lonian
cielours flying, it came pretty near one of the frigates,
the Ciptain of which, suspecting that he might be de-
ceiveld by the flag, and perhaps thinking that it was
the Katterai, fired at it. Captain Thomas then hoisted
English colours, and was continuing his course; the
hoisting of two flags increased the suspicions of the
Turkish Captain, and he fired seven or eight guns
loaded with grape shot, which, however, did no injury
to the steam-boat, but induced Captain Thomas to
return to Santa Maya. Havjng recovered from his
fright, he set out again, and seeing that the Turkish
ships had sailed towards the &jades, he arrived here
without further interruption.'"_. . .

A letter from Zante;of the 7th, received this morn-
ing; states tb at the Turkish fleet which had beekt cruising
on the coast of Zante and the Morea has entirely dis-
appeared from that quarter, with the exception of a few
ships which cruised near Patras and Missolonghi. The
Hellas, too, bad disappeared, and it was not known at
Zante what had become of her. Oa the 6th merchant-
men were again sent to the Golf of Patras, which had
not been done since Lord Cochrane's declaration of the
blockade. On the 4th, Lord Cochrane's schooner the
Unicorn arrived from Poros, which we hear sailed the
same evening for Marseilles with his Lordship's nephew.
Accounts from Prevesa say that the son of Redschid
Pacha bad arrived at Janina, to reside there as Gover-
nor. Ibrahim Pacha was at Patras • his Arabs had
occupied Vostizzo, on the Gulf of Lepanto,: and the
chiefs of thirty places on the gulf are said to have sub-
mitted to him.

By letters from Zante of. the 12th, we learn that
Lord Cochrane had arrived at Poros, and that the Ku-
teria was at Spezzia to repair its masts, which bad been
damaged in a storm near Zante. Colonel Gordon,who
seems resolved entirely to abandon Greece on account
of what occurred after the taking of the monastery of
St. Spiridion, arrived here on the 7th, and yes erday an
[onion ship, in eight days from Ppm, brought the Ba•
earian officers stud subalterns who went to Greed/
year with Colonel Heidegger, and who in a fr
Mil proceed on their return to Germany.
Heidegger is said to have gone to Milo, for Mel
of digging in search of monuments of antigun'•
