White's, 

 Tuesday, January 1767. 



I conclude the foreign mail has not arrived, because I 

 had no letter ; and I am impatient to have one, because I 

 ■want to know if you left Paris as you intended. I have 

 not taken the old lodging for the Rena, because I waited 

 for your letter ; however, I saw a bill upon the door, and 

 if I do not hear from you before night, I shall order it to 

 be taken to-morrow. 



The King talked of you at his dressing, and told me 

 something that you had said of the Macaronis, that he 

 thought very good. Voilh de quoi vous encourager a vous 

 presenter a la cour mille compliments des plus honnUes b, 

 la cara Luisina, and many happy years to you both. I do 

 not expect you before Saturday. I have a nervous head- 

 ache and want my dinner, so farewell, for it is past four. 



Just come from the opera : the King was there. The 

 foreign mail arrived and no letters ; at least, I have not 

 had any. Thomond and Cadogan are returned from their 

 Christmas gambols. Adieu ! my dear George.
