Feb. 21. 9. Report of the Attorney General (Sir Edward Northey) to the Lords of the Treasury. Had considered the petition of Henry Viscount Mountague, brother and heir of Francis, late Viscount Mountague, deceased; and the conveyance mentioned. The abstract thereof was true, and John Caryl, a surviving trustee, being living and attainted of high treason, one moiety of the estate vested in the trustees was vested in her Majesty; and the trusts could not be executed unless an act were passed as was desired.

Feb. 23. 11. Charles Caldecot to —. Had, as well by an address promoted and obtained by his interest against that of a whole party, as also in the elections of the city and county of Lincoln, endeavoured to advance the interest of the present ministry, and thought it the less presumption to ask a small favour, viz.:—to receive the next year's taxes for the parts of Lindsey in the co. of Lincoln. His own estate was sufficient to answer two thirds of the receipt, and the person who now received the taxes had no visible substance. If not thought a proper instrument, would not be easily disengaged from the service of a person who had rescued our constitution out of the mouth of destruction.

Encloses replies to letters written to Lord Dartmouth and Mr Secretary St. John, concerning the treaties for the German and Italian troops in her Majesty's pay in Spain, in order to form an establishment of those troops according to such treaties. “As there are no treaties yet in form to be found for any of those foreigners, more than the first 4,000 men transported to Catalonia, and the recruits sent, that have been sent for that corps from time to time, although there were 13,020 Germans and Italians paid for the year 1710, besides 3,000 more taken into the service in that year, and 2,000 horse more which are now agreed for, and 500 additional recruits for the foot, so it will not be possible to form an establishment for these foreigners by which their pay may be regulated till the treaties for them are perfected.” Has no certain account of “her Majesty's subject troops” since the misfortune at Briheuga.

Some latitude should be given to the Earl of Portmore to continue the payment. Lord Portmore found himself unable to complete the nine troops of 45 men each out of Spanish and Irish deserters, and thought that six troops of 60 men each might suffice.
