Excerpt from Journal of the Reign of King George the Third, Vol. 2 of 2: From the Year 1771 to 1783, Being a Supplement to His MemoirsScotch sounded high Lord George''s spirit; and nothing was talked of but conquering America 271 one campaign; whilst indeed the more sober part of the Ministers, who saw the wildness and profusion of the expense, were appre hensive that, if the business could not be effected in that time, the Administration would be blown up, finding them selves at a dead stand. Lord G. Germaine, who had always treated Lord Chatham''s magnificent plans as vi sions of a madman, who dictated impracticable measures and left the Treasury to find the means, now seemed to have taken that daring and inconsiderate Minister for his own pattern, chalking out, dictating the measures, and leaving the whole burthen of supplies on the shoulders of Lord North, whom at the same time, without reserve in his most public conversations, he spoke of as a tri?ing and supine Minister. Lord North had all the air of sub scribing to that character, and augmented his natural and jocose levity, as if his coadjutor had rendered the office of Prime Minister a sinecure. Still the difference of their characters kept up a sort of division or ambiguity in the conduct of Government; Lord North still retaining an affected propensity to peace, Lord George pronouncing authoritatively for decision and exaction of fill submission from the colonies: an inconsistent language which broke out from both in every parliamentary debate, though, how ever dictatorial Lord George was in the Cabinet, he had recovered so little spirit, was so afraid of inviting personal re?ections, or was so cowed by his conscious unpopularity, that he nowhere appeared the Minister so little as in the House of Commons, and never shone there with so little lustre.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
