LONDON, October 27.
Mr. Liston, our minister at America,j
does not return from any misundcrstanding,
either of & personal or political nature,
neither has he resigned his office. He
wrote home for leave of absence, on ac
count of ill health, but really, we believe,
on account of private assairs ; and after vi
siting hisbrother in the Weshlndies, he is
expected in Scodand. His secretary, Mr.
Thornton, will be left as charge des affairs, 3
but it is expected Mr. Liston will soon re- ?

William Neale, a jOurneyman chair
painter, in the employ of Mr. Wood, of
Grosvenor street, was on Saturday observ
ed by Townsend, the Both-eet officer,
lurking about Buckingham House, and, on -
being asked what he wanted? he replied,
" the king." He was immediately taken
to the alien office, and examined before
Mr. Ford, the magistrate, where he flatcd ,
that " about five years ago, the Lord Je
sus Christ appeared to him, laid hold of
him by the hands, and felt him personally;
he said the king of England had two sons,
one of whom the earth brought forth, and
thessot-her Sion, which was himself.-—Being

The capturc of Florence and Le *
by the French is an indubitable proof f
g the little confidence that is to be repos
; in the faith and prosesiions of that people.
—-In every point of view it is an insracti- ,_
on of the convention. This outrage, this I
violation of the laws of nations, of huma
nity, and of every thing that is clear to the
Fsasety and repose of man, was committed.
; under the pretext of disarming :! banditti, !
{which the French general h' the impu- i
dence to say " was thought ecessary by
everal partizans of the Grand Dukethem
selves, who felt that thess/bfi-{y and bouaur
; of the French army, required that such
emeasurcs should be taken," to which he
has the efflontery to add, that " nothing
has passed that could in the flightest degree
affect the armistice," that is, in Engnsh,
the capture of the estate of an amicable
prince, and the seizure ofprivatc property,
are to be considered as a more nothing. h

11: 15 truehe tells thcinhabitants in the
names osbauar,_sir'u/Zice &c. that private pro
perty shall be respected, but he does nor '
add, what will be the case, that it will be
exhausted in vexation and in supportable
requisitions. As to the confiscation of
British property, we trust the French will
be very much disaPpointed in that respect.
As several circumstances induce a belief
that this irruption was cxpectcd—For we
find the Archduke and his family arrive at ct
Vienna on the lgth ult. and that the fine
Florence gallery of pictures had been re
moved on board the Arone !rigate.-—-The
French accounts state, that the 'l'usi:an ge
neral, Sommariva, ltaj emptied the state
chests previous to his charturc with the '
Austrians for Ancona. .
This outrage must have a great effect
on the proceedings at Luncville. Such
a glaring act of violence and injustice can.. 1
not be passedpver in silence, as it would
argue & total absence of spirit and sirmness
in the Aush'ian Cabinet.
We are credibly informed that a consi
derable agitation prevails among the pub
lic in Paris, on account of the.- continua
