Excerpt from The Christian Remembrancer, Vol. 10: A Quarterly Review; July December Our Ambassador had been a friend to Fox when at College, and, as a member of the Coalition Parliament, was opposed to the first successes of the son of Chatham. But when Mr. Pitt came into power with his hands unfettered by pledges in 17 84, he was employed, as we have described, in Holland, Mr. Pitt being able to afford a disregard to party connexions, which would not have been shown probably by his rivals, and being swayed by considerations of merit, rather than by those of alliance. Thus continued their connexion till Lord Malmesbury was raised to the Peerage in 1788. Within a few weeks after this event he ranged himself on Fox's side in the disputes respecting the Regency, which were made so memorable by the treachery of Thurlow; and hence resulted a quarrel with Mr. Pitt, which is passed over as lightly as may be in these volumes, but in which Mr. Pitt and the King thought themselves not very kindly used (to say the least) by the new-made Peer. This breach was not healed till Lord Malmesbury, with a considerable portion of the leading Whigs, Lord Loughborough, Windham, Burke, &c., were driven to amalgamate, by the republican excesses of 1792, with their political opponents.
