A letter to the Right Hon. Spencer Percival [sic], Chancellor of the Exchequer &c. &c. on the subject of certain claims upon the government : together with some observations on the motives which appear to have actuated his conduct in resisting them and containing an appeal to the British nation on the most wanton and invidious aspersion made by him in his ministerial capacity of the character of the late, ever to be lamented, Lord Nelson /by Isabella, Countess of Glencairn.
A publicly argued plea to the Prime Minister Spencer Perceval, in which he is accused of having remarked to the author that "I never thought of the late Lord Nelson and his services as the world has; so far otherwise, that I consider his death was the salvation of the country, since, had he lived, he, in one way or other, would have ruined the nation, and emptied the Treasury"--p. 4.
