'Landed at Dover on Saturday, June 2nd, 1792.... Saw Prince of Wales early the 4th--he was very well pleased with what I had done at Berlin, thanked me for it, etc.--Stated his affairs to me as more distressed than ever--Several executions had been in his house--Lord Rawdon had saved him from one--that his debts amounted to £370,000. He said he was trying, through the Chancellor, to prevail on the King to apply to Parliament to increase his income. 'On the Wednesday following, I was with him by appointment. He repeated the same again; said that if the King would raise his revenue to £100,000 a year, he would appropriate £35,000 of it to pay the interest of his debts, and establish a Sinking fund. That, if this could not be done, he must break up his establishment, reduce his income to £10,000 a year, and _go abroad_. He _made a merit_ of having given up the turf, and blamed the Duke of York for remaining on it. He said (which I well knew before), that his racing stable cost him upwards of £30,000 yearly. He was very anxious, and, as is usual on these occasions, nervous and agitated. He said (on my asking him the question), that he did not stand so well with the King, as he did some months ago, but that he was better than ever with the Queen--that _she_ had advised him to press the King, through the Chancellor, to propose to Mr. Pitt to bring an increase of the Prince's income before Parliament, and that, if this was done, she would use her influence to promote it. 'I strongly recommended his pressing the Queen. He suggested the idea of going to Mr. Pitt _directly_ through the Chancellor, etc. I doubted both the consent of the Chancellor to such a step, at the moment he was going out, and his influence and weight if he did consent to it. I took the liberty of disapproving his going abroad, on any terms, and, particularly, under the circumstances he mentioned; said, that if he should, unfortunately, be reduced to the necessity of lowering his income to the degree he had mentioned, it would be much better to live in England, than _out_ of it. That the showing, in England, that he _could_ reduce his expences, and live economically, would do him credit, prove him in earnest, and if he kept up to such a plan, would, in the event, be much more likely to induce the public to take his situation into consideration, than any attempts through Ministry, Opposition, or even the Queen herself. 'I saw the Prince again on the 7th June, at Carlton House, as before. He repeated the same things, and added, that, if he could not obtain some assurance from the King that he would apply to Parliament in the next Session of Parliament, before this ended, that he should be ruined, and _must go abroad_--I, again, combated this idea; but he appeared to have a wish and some whim about going abroad, I could not discover.--He talked coldly and unaffectionately about the Duke and Duchess of York, and very slightingly of the Duke of Clarence.
