The cabinet had hastened to recall from the Spanish embassy the Marquess Wellesley, to succeed Mr. Canning in the place of secretary of state for foreign affairs ; and to place at the head of the war-department Earl Liver- pool, formerly Lord Hawkesbury.

In this mission I employed M. Ouvrard, for two reasons : first, because a political overture could scarcely be begun in London except under the mask of commercial operations ; and next, because it was impossible to employ, in so delicate an affair, a man more broken to business, or of a more insinuating and persuasive character.
