When the negotiation was nearly closed, I stated I would sign, subject to the ratification of the Commanders-in-Chief; but this being totally opposed by all parties, and my receiving at the moment a letter by which I learnt that neither Lord Exmouth nor Lord W. Bentinck were arrived at Civita Vecchia on the i8th, I then thought all chance of seeing them was over, and I was obliged to sign as I did, or leave the whole thing to the Austrians alone. The article of the Convention bound England to n...o one thing but the cessation of hostilities, for the return of Ferdinand. At the moment it was offered, we (England) had no means of co-operation; the Austrians were ready at every instant to say that, our commander never having appeared or assisted, they could not delay advantages within their own grasp, for a form with persons of whose arrival I could give no assurance. I have been much disappointed that nothing even from Sicily should have arrived. I had pressed A'Court and General Macfarlane by all means in my power, but I fear they have not even yet sailed from Melazzo.
