A dinner was given by Mr. Porter, at his house, Upper
Seymour street, at which the Portuguese Ambassador and

missioned to replace the fine library, splendid plate, and
carriages bionging to the Duchess of Braganza, lost some

purchased for Donna Maria, which will have on board
tour hundred Belgian troops.
