The Catholic question is the only point on which you differ with any part of the King's Ministers, and on this point there has been always a difference among themselves. I sincerely wish that the new arrangements may bring this question to a happy conclusion, which seems now more indispensably necessary than ever to the public safety. But this is the only part of the change which I do not quite approve. The appointment of Lord Wellesley is excellent, provided he still retains sufficient bodily strength, and the energies of his mind are such as they were several years ago in India; but I think that I see a sort of _compromise in the appointment_ of the Lord Lieutenant and his Secretary, who are thought to come from different schools and to hold different doctrines. This compromise has been already fatal, and we are now tasting its fruits. The times will no longer bear such a line of conduct. I therefore sincerely hope that the public suspicions on this subject are unfounded. My brother desires to join me in every sentiment which I have expressed personal to yourself. We both desire to be personally remembered to Lady B----, and I remain, my dear Lord, with the sincerest esteem, Ever affectionately yours, GLASTONBURY. MR. HENRY W. WYNN TO THE MARQUIS OF BUCKINGHAM. St. James's Square, March 28, 1821. MY DEAR LORD B----, I saw Lord Castlereagh this morning, and am happy to say that his reception of me was as favourable as I could have wished. He began by a great deal of palaver about the obligation the Government were under to _my_ family, and that he conceived I had an undoubted claim upon them. At the same time he said that he was not enabled to make any communication to me, but that he trusted soon to have it in his power. When I told him that I was going abroad for six weeks, he desired me to call on him on my return, and that he did not doubt he should then be able to give me a decisive answer. I consider this as almost tantamount to a promise, and that I have very nearly obtained the object I have so long had in view. This I owe entirely to you, and the most difficult task I have now to perform is to express to you one half the obligation I feel for your kindness. You will, I am sure, consider yourself as repaid by the happiness you have procured to me and mine. Ever your affectionate and obliged, H. W. W. Watkin has just brought in from the House of Commons the account of the game being quite up with the Neapolitans. MR. CHARLES W. WYNN TO THE MARQUIS OF BUCKINGHAM. Llangedwin, Christmas Day. MY DEAR B----,
