Lord Henry Russell is on his journey from Paris to Lisbon, via Madrid, to join the Hastings ship of the line, as junior Lieutenant.— Morning Post.--[ This is the Lord Blank Russell, who could not get his passport vis‘d in Paris because he was suspected of being a Carlist. All at once the French authorities, who know that arms and ammuni- tion are smuggled over the Spanish frontier, became wonderfully scru- pulous, in anticipation probably of the King's speech, wherein a reli- gious observance of the Quadruple Treaty is announced.]

Lord Weymouth, eldest son of the Marquis of Bath, who married some years ago in opposition to the wishes of his family, is travelling with his Lady on the Continent, and intends to make a long sojourn abroad.
