‘House of Lords: Wednesday [24th July, 1850].

‘My dear R.,—Palmerston’s dinner of Saturday was the greatest failure ever known. Not a single colleague nor any person in office, except Attorney and Solicitor-General. All the M.P.’s known Radicals. The rest utterly unknown. It is said there was a riot and fight, and the police called in. No news have occurred since I had the pleasure of seeing you.

‘I have been prevented calling with Lady Malet, by being a prisoner in this House, hearing causes daily from ten to five. I am working off Cottenham’s arrears. The new Chancellor does exceedingly well.

‘Yours affectionately,
‘H. Brougham.’
