LISSOM, Ocr. 16.--Lord Beresford, cominz from
1110 deJtneiro on board the English ship ruticar,
arrived unexpect dly in the port of this capital on the
lUth instant. The Government desiring to avoid any
interruption wbich his presence might cause in the
public peace of this capital, and to provide at the same
time for the personal safety of Lot" Beresford, has
taken the most decisive and energetic measures to
nuke him depart from the port of Lisbon in the
shortest time possible, communicating to the Captain
of the ship the weighty reasons which call for those
measures, and that they are in no manner directed to
impair the relations of amity existing between the
Portuguese and British nations, nor to deprive the cap-
tain or crew of the vessel of any assistance which they
may require, and which will never be denied to the
ships of war of friendly and allied nations.
The Marshal General Marquis of Campo-Major sails
for England in the Arabella packet, which Is to sail
ssn the 17th, in the morning. The English. ship Yen•
geliff, which brought his Excellency to this port, is to
accompany him out of the bar. Captain Maitland,
commander of this ship, agrees to deliver to the Chief
Trrasurser of the Exchequer, the sum of 106,952
hard piastres, wbich' be carries by order of his Ma-
jesty, resiidstog from the government, for his security
of iltesurinpticles, a bond, which was granted him.
