In the notes, “I.G.” indicates assistance from Ian Gilmour, to whom I’m grateful. In 1819 Hobhouse contested the parliamentary seat of Westminster, which had become vacant on the suicide of Romilly. He stood as a radical, supported by his father and by Burdett, but was defeated on March 3rd by George Lamb. Riots followed, and a breach opened between him and the Holland House Whigs. Westminster was an unusual constituency. It extended from Temple Bar to Hyde Park, from Oxford Street to the Thames, and three-quarters of its voters were middle-class: shopkeepers, skilled artisans, printers, tailors, and so on. It was the only constituency in the country in which each of its 17,000 rate-paying householders had the vote, which fact made it a headache to any administration, Whig or Tory, which was based upon, and served, as all administrations were and did, the landed gentry. At Westminster, candidates had to stand on the hustings and speak deferentially to people whom they’d normally expect to speak deferentially to them . At this time Hobhouse wrote several pamphlets, and an anonymous reply to a sarcastic speech of Canning’s, written by him and some of his friends in the Rota Club, attracted attention.

  • DUTCH and ENGLISH PAINTINGS Seascape Gallery 1600 – 1850
    DUTCH AND ENGLISH PAINTINGS Seascape Gallery 1600 – 1850 The art and ship models in this station are devoted to the early Dutch and English seascape painters. The historical emphasis here explains the importance of the sea to these nations. Historical Overview: The Dutch: During the 17th century, the Netherlands emerged as one of the great maritime oriented empires. The Dutch Republic was born in 1579 with the signing of the Union of Utrecht by the seven northern provinces of the Netherlands. Two years later the United Provinces of the Netherlands declared their independence from the Spain. They formed a loose confederation as a representative body that met in The Hague where they decided on issues of taxation and defense. During their heyday, the Dutch enjoyed a worldwide empire, dominated international trade and built the strongest economy in Europe on the foundation of a powerful merchant class and a republican form of government. The Dutch economy was based on a mutually supportive industry of agriculture, fishing and international cargo trading. At their command was a huge navy and merchant fleet of fluyts, cargo ships specially designed to sail through the world, which controlled a large percentage of the international trade. In 1595 the first Dutch ships sailed for the East Indies. The Dutch East Indies Company (the VOC as it was known) was established in 1602 and competed directly with Spain and Portugal for the spices of the Far East and the Indian subcontinent. The success of the VOC encouraged the Dutch to expand to the Americas where they established colonies in Brazil, Curacao and the Virgin Islands.

    1 1821 1821. Death of Napoleon. Coronation of George IV. Death and funeral of Queen Caroline. January 1st-December 31st 1821 Edited from BL.Add.Mss.56541-4 On January 1st 1821 Hobhouse shoots in the fields around Whitton, in the midst of a “hard frost”. On January 2nd he goes on, as he would put it, “stupefying” himself, by writing letters, cutting out from newspapers, shooting, eating and drinking. The same inactivity continues on January 3rd and 4th . On January 5th he hears of “a county meeting in Wiltshire”, and writes “to Methuen and High Sheriff Goddard to put my name to requisition”. Inactivity continues (“Epicuri de gorge porces”) on January 6th . On January 7th , Methuen answers: … he afraid of my coming down to preach radical doctrines at Devizes – these men think the Reformers fools – without deference to time or place. I wrote and told him his mistake, saying I should come down, but should not speak unless the Whigs said anything about blasphemy and sedition, in which case nothing should prevent me from censuring such odious and pernicious hypocrisy. I wrote to Tom Smith to the same purpose. On January 9th the Hobhouses are having a ball, so on January 8th Hobhouse writes letters and tidies his room in preparation. How these activities do help prepare for a ball, he doesn’t say. The ball on January 9th brings forth a capital piece of Hobhousean self- portraiture: As before – setting books to rights. In evening, we had a ball [with] all the folks of the neighbourhood – I danced with a Miss Johnstone, daughter of Sir A.
