The Dutch Plenpotentiary is introduced into
the Conference. He states that his sovereign Is

arrest of the individuals who formed part OF the
band Of Tornaro; an assimilation the which me

Belgian government, for the sake OF peace and
humanity. to release the individuals of Tornaro's
band. This Protocol is dated the s9th May.

The Times of the 9TH June, announces letters
from Lisbon of the 26th May. News had been
received there of the restoration OF Lord Grey
and his colleagues to Office, and had produced
much dismay among the Misueite party, with
corresponding feeling of qualification among the
