The peerages are eight, and hourly expected:--Lord Conyngham, Roden, Sir W. Scott, Forester, Cholmondeley, Liddel, W. Pole, Lord James Murray. I don't hear a word of the Dukedoms. The King reviews the Guards on Friday, and then goes to the cottage at Windsor, to meet the Conynghams. Boats are gone from Chatham and Staines for the Virginia Lake, where he is to have water-parties. Probably or possibly we shall participate in these. If so, you shall hear from me.--It is said the Lords meet the 17th; begin immediately the witnesses for the prosecutor: finish this in a fortnight; then the Queen asks for two months (at least) before she commences her defence, _if she makes any_. But there is a strong report she means to make none in the Lords, but reserve herself for the Commons; if so, it is no great compliment to us, who examine not on oath. These, however, are only the rumours of the day.--Lushington got a most handsome and proper dressing from Castlereagh, who, I am told, did it remarkably well. Ever truly yours, W. H. F. RIGHT HON. THOMAS GRENVILLE TO THE MARQUIS OF BUCKINGHAM. Cleveland Square, July 22, 1820. MY DEAR LORD B----, Lord G---- wrote to me last night, and tells me that he must, however reluctantly, attend on the 17th, the Chancellor being, as it is said, determined to go all lengths to enforce attendance. He is, in my mind, quite right in doing so. You will be much rejoiced to hear that on the 20th Lord G---- received a letter from Lord Liverpool, offering through him, in the K----'s name and in his, and in the most flattering terms from both, the situation of Regius Professor of Divinity at Oxford, with the Canonship of Christ Church, to Dr. Hodgson, as a thing proper in itself, and also as what was wished to be done on account of his connexion with Lord G----. Nothing could be more gratifying to Lord G----, who has always felt mortified at observing that hitherto his connexion with Hodgson had been rather prejudicial than serviceable to him.--I write this the rather because my brother adds that the post being in the moment of going, he has not time to write you word of it then. St. Paul's is given to Llandaff. The dandy Pelham is gone sulkily down to look at Bugden, and to see whether he will condescend to take that after his disappointment, at which there seems to be a very general feeling of satisfaction.
