rrangement is suspended till it can be brought to a conclusion.

Mr. Goulburn is now with me, and proceeds to Ireland to-morrow;
Lord Wellesley will leave London, I understand, on Wednesday, and I
am to see him here on his way. I will certainly recommend to the
King to make Mr. Fremantle a Privy Councillor; I shall be most
happy if it is in my power to open a seat at the Board of Treasury
for him. I feel he would be of great personal use to me at that
Board; but I cannot be confident as to my success in this respect
until after my return to town.

Believe me to be, with great truth,

My dear Lord,

Very faithfully yours,

LIVERPOOL.

THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON TO THE MARQUIS OF BUCKINGHAM.

Strathfieldsaye, Dec. 16, 1821.

MY DEAR LORD BUCKINGHAM,

I have received a letter from Lord Londonderry which gives me
reason to hope that your discussions with the Government have been
brought to a conclusion to your satisfaction. I cannot express to
you the gratification which this circumstance affords me; and most
particularly [when] I think that I have been, in some degree,
instrumental in bringing about an arrangement which is, I trust, as
agreeable to you as I am sure it is beneficial to the country. I
could not avoid writing these few lines to congratulate you; and I
beg you to believe me,

Ever yours most sincerely,

WELLINGTON.

LORD GRENVILLE TO THE MARQUIS OF BUCKINGHAM.

Dropmore, Dec. 20, 1821.

I think you are certainly right in what you propose to do as to
your own title. I am not herald enough to see any difficulty in
your son's being _commonly called_ Earl Temple, as at present;
and I should vehemently suspect that any difficulties arising on
that head at the College, have nothing else in view than the
payment of a third set of fees.

If, however, you give way to them, I should incline to recommend
your taking the Marquisate of _Temple_. I wish I were not in
the way as to that of Grenville; and should you and he prefer that,
most undoubtedly I could have no claim to object to it; but I could
not recommend it, because he as well as I should then experience,
to a much greater degree, the inconvenience which already results
from the confusion of Granville and Grenville.

I return Lord Liverpool's letter, which is very handsomely
