To Blaquiere

1. Tchitchagoff – to know whether he is at Paris, not at
the Russian Ambassadors for his de address.

2. Baron de Leffert. Being a Banker, and a Member
of one or other of the Legislative Assemblies, he can not
but be ordinarily at Paris. Can there be any difficulty in
finding out the hoax of such a man, and acting at house.

3. Comte or Marquis Paris. True perhaps with regard
to him. But I have not written any letter to him.
All I have done or could do is to propose to De Leffert to introduce
you to him.

Being all of them written, and two of them copied,
all these letters will go along with this one to come to you.
So it was intended –
but I doubt whether
there will be time –
if not, they must go
through Mr. Moore.

The Duc de la Rochefoucault you do not mention.
He may be at his estate at Liancourt near Clermont I
believe it is, by near the road from Paris to Calais. But he can
not but be occasionally at Paris. He is said to be extremely poor. If so, his poverty of

, Ao 1792 Secretary of Legation here under Taleyrand: afterwards
. If he is
alive, you make
any use of my name
to him. Ao 1802
I dined at his House
with Romilly, Lord
Erskine, and another
or two.

M. Cambronne. In your letter of the 18th of October
you speak of it as being of the 19th, you speak of his expressing
some surprize at my rejecting the Upper Chamber. With no
other text than this would you have had me quit my other occupations
to write a dissertation in his surprize. Do you speak of his writing me a Letter? I have recd none. There is my
title work the . Why does he not publish his objections
and send them to me if he thinks it worth while that he I
should take cognizance of them? Either to give to M. I wrote
a few lines on this subject t'other day. The was
more directed I believe against its being composed of the privileged
orders, than against the existence of it. It is no pain now
for me to set my shoulders to it. I have just been saying
put if it no compared with upon what terms I should
for aught I know be in favour of it.

Money regarded by all as requisite for carrying on his paper. I can
as your leave how much it is from this letter of yours than from your former
one. I wrote at the same time to him. If a man will not
say what it is he wants, he ought not to be surprized at not
having it.

Any remarks this when you write to me in future. Whenever
the subject changes, begin
a fresh paragraph; and
number the paragraphs.
This will save more
pain and damage to
my eyes than I can
describe.
My son Bo. dines with me tomorrow in . Your just letter will be talked over, can scarce fail to prevent invitations & produce coldness.
His eldest son, whom I saw
with the father, was ambassador at Vienna – I believe
under Buonaparte – I don't know what it is at present.
He served under, and lived with, the Duke of York in Flanders, who was
drunk and lost his head every night.
