The Report is to be brought up to-day, and the Bill to be read a third time on Monday. They have abandoned all idea of opposing the bringing up of the Report; but Croker, I understand, in spite of all that can be said to deter him, persists in his intention of moving that a provision shall be inserted in the Bill for the Roman Catholic clergy. A great exertion is to be made against us for the division on the third reading, but I think we shall succeed; we had seven votes shut out on the clause relating to Parliament, which was most unfortunate. I am now going to meet Sir John Newport, at Lord Castlereagh's, to consider of the propriety of some alterations which have been suggested as expedient to be made on bringing up the Report. Lord Castlereagh _now_ seems quite in earnest, and I think his having this meeting at his house is a proof of it; he was very pressing with me to attend it. The Bill will be reprinted; and as soon as it is distributed I will send a copy to Avington, where I shall presume you continue till I hear to the contrary. Believe me, my dear Lord, Your Lordship's obliged and faithful, JOSEPH PHILLIMORE. THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON TO THE MARQUIS OF BUCKINGHAM. London, March 30, 1821. MY DEAR LORD BUCKINGHAM, Fremantle has just come in to me, and has informed me that you understood that part of a late letter I had written to him, referred to you. I assure you that you are quite mistaken. It could not refer to you. I think I have reason to believe that Lord W---- himself does not believe in the truth of the charges he thinks proper to make against me. I may be mistaken; but that is my opinion, and that was the opinion which, as well as I recollect, I intended to convey, and no other; and even this opinion I intended to convey in terms as polite, guarded, and little offensive to anybody as possible. Pray don't think that I could mean to refer to you in any manner. And believe me, ever yours most sincerely, WELLINGTON. MR. W. H. FREMANTLE TO THE MARQUIS OF BUCKINGHAM. Stanhope Street, March 30, 1821.
