Pembroke 21st. July 1791

I intended writing to you from Bowood
but I am always agitated at parting
with Lord Wycombe, and can think of nothing
but what regards him, and he did
not set out till the day we did.

As to Foreign Politicks, I cannot
help looking upon the Emperor as the Arbiter
of Europe, and I believe him to the
full as Ambitious as his Brother only
with more Art more prudence and Snite.
The French Nabien seem to be the Favorites
of Providence, but it appears that
Mongr. de Calonne will never rest till
he gets some of his Friends hang'd

You misapprehended me, when
you suppos'd that one only of the Ladys remain'd
each month. It is that one was to preside
each month. However I had forgot that
one generally goes to Warwick at the
end of the Season, and two remain at
Bowood till I go to Town, but the Warwicks
have not fix'd their own time of
going to Warwick, nor is it quite fix'd
