In the House of Lords, July IS, Lord LON
DoNpkRY addressed some questions to the pre-
mier on the subject Of foreign affairs, particular
" those Of Greece and Belgium.
Earl GRFY replied. that. SO far from induls'ng
in Kiug-,paking, the Ministers had only followed
the steps and suggestions Ut their predecessors IN
office. The Noble Lord must know that Greece
was IN state of great wretchedness and anarchy,
and the necessity for the measure in which Eng
land had taken part must be obvious to every one.
The Noble Earl then said that the statements re-
sDectino Prince Ohio add the loan were correct.
but that whether the arrangements were Tor the
advantage of this country. OF course time only
could show lie trusted that, if peace could be
secured in Greece, its revenue would meet the
interest of the loan. lie added that the oriSi-
nal interference with Greece he disapproved, but,
after what had been done, the case assumed DIT
ferent character. The Noble Earl stated that
there would no objection to produce the protocol
The Earl of Aberdeen defended the course pur-
sued BY the last administration respecting Greece
and Holland; but, though he was prepared 10

rion was against his pretensions. Earl Grey all
m,,ted that these might be objections; but the
question was, whether, in the choice OF Difficult
ties. the Government had not selected the leas'!
The Duke of Wellington observed that his OBJ
iections to Prince Othu still remained, and that
that. when he saw Algiers and Ancona continu-
ing in the hands of the French, lie could not but
feel that in those quarters the interests OF Eng
land were neglected. After some observations
from Lords lIa,!dingtun and Goderch. Earl Grey
further remarked. that whatever evils might have
arisen from intervention, they were not the Gre
alton of the present Government.
1t is fixed that Lord Nugent will go out as
Chief Commissioner of the lohan Islands. -
H., Lordshp is an old and tried friend to free
dom. aud being man Of exceedingly amiable
temper. aud well aware Of the Importance Of &C.
neral education and religious liberty to the pros
perty of states. it is to be hoped that he will
ci;iate the Greeks, and by the support Of insttu-
tions calculated to promote the real interests OF
mankind, Law foundations, which no adverse cir
cumstances, or conflicting interests, will be able
to destroy.

IospoS. July lS.-The PantaIoon, brig Of
war. which arrived at Falmouth Yesterday, brings
news of the expedition Of only one day later
than those received by the Firebrand., 1t con-
firms the accounts received BY the latter, with
the addition of Dnn Pedro having increased the
force of 5000 men, which he sent in pursuit of
the inequalities to 5000. 1t is the opinion OF seve-
raj military men who are well acquainted with
every part Of Portugal, that Don Pedro has, BY
this step, shown a competent knowledge of mill
tarv tactics. as well as Of activity, which cannot
fail to render the cause IF his daughter triumph

sending 5000 men to Figdera. which is about hall
way between Oporto and Lisbon, IN the event Of
the latter force efecting as successful olsen
barkation, as the troops did at Matozinhos, and
of which there is no doubt, the troops III Don Mi
