Excerpt from The Adventures of a Roving Diplomatist
Thus entirely relieved of the cloud of suspicions that cunning calumny had thrown over me, and fortified by the conviction, now generally entertained, that I was caught in the meshes of some artful conspiracy, I presume to appeal once more to public confidence while I seek to disclose the occult purpose that led to my imprisonment at Genoa, as well as the secret aim of all the odious attempts made to traduce me in England and elsewhere. It will then be seen that the lady who has hitherto been regarded as my fair persecutor was, in fact, only a screen and a pretext; and that the British consul, who has been supposed her cham pion, was, in truth, merely the instrument for effecting the covert designs of another party; and finally, that the party in question was no other and no less than the British Min ister for Foreign Affairs, Lord Viscount Palmerston.
