Bathurst, who would have been Clerk of the Council if the Government had lasted three days longer. Nothing was said. Lord Grey has been sent for by the King. I went through all the protocols on the table, and have left hardly anything but two unanswered letters to my successor one respecting the rate of Exchange between territory and commerce; the other respecting Hyderabad affairs. November 19.
He deprecated the introduction of English law into the provinces. The King is getting weaker, which the physicians dread more than his spasms. It is thought he can hardly last a week. Read the memorandum on Hyderabad a second time, and sent it with the proposed letter and alterations to the Duke. Prepared materials for Lord Stanhope's motion about shipping on Thursday. May 12.

"Bussy at once released from confinement a son of Nazir Jung, proclaimed him Subadar of the Deccan, escorted him to Hyderabad, and received from him the cession of considerable fresh grants of territory to the French. The latter were now everywhere triumphant, and Trichinopoli and Tanjore were, with the three towns held by the English, the sole places which resisted their authority.
There was a loud outcry of horror and surprise sweeping on now from the social circles of Delhi to the clubs of Lucknow, Cawnpore, Allahabad, Benares, and Patna to Calcutta. In a day or two, men from Lahore to Hyderabad, from Bombay to Nagpore and Madras, and in all the clubs from Calcutta to Simla, had paused over their brandy pawnee to murmur, "Well!
We really thought at first that we should be able to encamp at Meshed and dig, for there was a seyyid who had been in Hyderabad and was very civil to us, but this happiness only lasted one hour.
The lieutenants of the Emperor founded separate sovereignties at Lucknow and Hyderabad, in the Carnatic, and in Bengal.
