Side 339 - I never trembled so much; not, my dear Miss Lucy, so much for my own sake, as for the sake of the thirty poor families on the common, whose wants it had been my intention to relieve.

Side 243 - ... its gratitude; they are not (in a word) effective aid, troops, arms, subsidies, which augment the force of one of the contending parties.

Side 623 - ... that M. de San Miguel merely demands the dissolution of the Army of Observation, without holding out any hope -whatever of a concession upon points which menace the vital tranquillity of this country ; though he must be well aware that, in the present situation of affairs, no French minister would be bold enough to propose such a measure, unless it should be justified by a corresponding concession on the part of Spain. He added, that, under these circumstances, the king is compelled to assume...
Side 179 - ... this measure may be effectual in attaining the objects for which it is calculated, and that the wisdom of the French government will have induced them to explain it at Madrid in such terms as will satisfy the government of his Catholic Majesty of its necessity. Such an explanation will, it is hoped, tend to allay in some degree the irritation against France, and, on the other hand, it may be hoped that some allowance will be made in France for the state of effervescence of men's minds in Spain,...
Side 439 - At the same time, however, that you will be thus careful to mark your relation to His Majesty's established Minister, it will be essential to avoid creating the impression, that the suggestions which your Lordship has to offer on the part of the Duke of Wellington, as the friend and wellwisher of Spain, are only in another shape demands on the part of your Government.
