LORD BYRON.

On Thursday the remains of his Lordship ar-
rived at the Nore, from Greece, in a vessel chartered for the pur-
pose; and the intelligence being given to his Lordship's
Executors, they immediately repaired to the place to take the
charge of it, but to prevent any demur, from wantof legal autho-
rity to receive it, they previously proved his Lordship's will.—
This important document bears the date of 29th July, 1815, just
six months after his Lordship's marriage with the Heiress of
the houses of Milbanke and Noel, and when his Lady was
enceinte of his only issue. He devises certain real estates at
Rochdale and elsewhere, to his friends, John Cam Hobhouse,
late of Trinity College, Cambridge, Esq., and John Hanson,
of Chancery-lane, London, Esq., in trust, for sale, and the
money arising therefrom, together with such part of his
other property, as .was not settled by his marriage-settle-
ment, on Lady Byron and her children, he directs to be in
trust for his only sister the Honourable Augusta Mary Leigh,
for her life, for her own separate and exclusive benefit, anti,
after her decease, the principal to go to her children, of which
there are eight. And his Lordship declares that he made
such provision for his sister and her children, in consequence
of his dear wife, Lady Byron, and any children he might
have, being otherwise amply provided for. His Lordship ap.
points Mr. Hobhouse and .Mr. Hanson his Executors, to
each of whom he bequeaths a legacy of one thousand pounds.
There is also a short codicil, accompanying the Will, made
in Nov. 1810, when he was at Venice, providing for a certain
object, but which has by subsequent events becomeinoperative.
The property which will thus pass to Mrs. Leigh and her nu.
merous family, exclusive of the large revenue which must ulti.
mately arise from his great works, will be very considerable.
Lady Byron, we have authority to state, has most liberally be-
stowed her jointure of 2,0001. a-year, which she took out of his
Lordship's property underhis marriage settlement, to Captain
George Anson Byron, of the Royal Navy, who succeeds to the
family honours—a proof, at least, that his Lordship calculated
justly on her Ladyship's approval of his own dispositions to
the female branch of his family equally unprovided for.—
(Morning Chronicle.)

It is reported on the Continent, that Marshal
LAURISTON has bought the Journal de Paris, for
600,000 francs, about 20,0001. sterling.
The house now erecting in Spring Gardens,
adjoining the Earl of PEMBUOKOS, for Mr. Secre-
tary PEEL, when complete, will present one of
the grandest edifices in town. A noble picture
gallery is to be appended to the mansion, where
the choice specimens of ancient and modorn art,
already collected by Mr. PEEL at an enormous ex-
pence, are to be deposited.

LQNDON,
S4TURDAY, JULY 3, 1824.

CITY, O&z O'CLocx.

A great deal of business has been dni;i:: t is
morning in the Stock Markets, and I).:rtic.l-
- in the British Funds, in consecitienW
chiefly of the previous panic being aggra-
vated by the alleged application of the Por-
tuguese Government for the aid of a British
or Hanoverian military force. Consols, which
opened at 948, fell to 948, but recovered again
to 948, and are now 942.—Little or nothing
has been done in Foreign Securities ; but they
also are depressed, Portuguese Bonds have fallen
to 87, 88,—Mexican Scrip to lf discount, and
Colombian Scrip to a discount of 3f.

We have received the Paris Papers of Wed-
nesday and the Etoile of Thursday, and have
given extracts from them in a preceding column.
The most important feature of their contents is a
direct contradiction, by the Etoile, of the ru-
moured changes in the French Ministry, and par-
ticularly of the alleged resignation of the Baron
de DAMAS as Minister at War. This fully con•
firms the positive contradiction of the rumours
which was given in Tim SUN of Thursday, anti-
cipating the French Ministerial Journal by two
posts. The Etoile says, that, according to the
false rumours in circulation, " It is not only the
Minister of War, but several others that
have tendered their resignations;" and then,
after noticing another ground lebs report, it adds,
44 We shall reply to the first insinuation, (as We
did yesterday, as far as the Minister of War was
concerned, that is,) the fact is false !"--This,
therefore, in another instance of the priority and
accuracy of our foreign intelligence, respecting
important political questions.

It is said that the King of PORTUGAL has apm
plied to this country for the aid of a military
force for the maintenance of his authority ; and
we have seen some very inconclusive reasoning put
forth, in order to induce our Government to re..
fuse compliance with the request. Our Readers
will recollect that as soon as it was known that
the British Commander in the Tagus had written
home for a naval reinforcement (at the time of
Don MiavEr.'s rebellious attempt to seize the
sovereign power), we expressed a hope that
Ministers would immediately order additional
ships of war to proceed to the Lisbon station,--a
hope which we had the satisfaction to learn Wag
promptly realized. We now venture to say that
if it be true that Portugal has applied for 11
British military force, it ought unhesitatingly 03
be granted. If England will not give efficient
support to the Spanish Monarchy, we may rest
assured that France will ! The sending out of
British force to support the King of PORTUGAGI
at his request, would not be an interfereuro
for the purpose
of altering or overthrow
ing the Government of his dotnioioni (as was
the case with the French invasion of Spain
and the Austrian occupation of Naples ; bat
would be with the view of protecting the
Government and the best interests of For.'
tugal from the tw o-fold perils to which they
are exposed from foreign intrigue and domestic
fanaticism and treason. Such a proceeding 15
perfectly consistent with the acknowledged prin-
ciples of international law ; and could only be
deemed censurable if the laws of Portugal herself
prohibited the calling in of foreign troops o%
pretext or on any emergency for the maintenance
of the public tranquillity.

The Princess AUGUSTA yesterday paid a visit
to the Duke and Duchess of GLOUCESTER.
Yesterday morning Prince Lcoeot.o left tow"

London in the evening.
