Autographic Biography.—The Marquis de Spinola, mentioned by Ellen F., in "Current Notes" for January, p. 6, was Ambassador or Minister from Genoa to France. He afterwards came to England on a mission from his Government. I have many of his letters, in some of which he complains of Lord Nelson's proceedings in the Mediterranean.

I think p. 8 of your January "Notes," if referred to by your fair Correspondent Ellen F., may answer her "Hue and Cry" after John Bruce, on the 20th May, 1829.
