Reported of Ld Mulgrave when in opposition - Being
introduced to the Queen of Sardinia — On dit said her majesty,
que Milord n'est pas bien à la cour. — Madame, c'est la

is Uncle to Ld M.

Ld B. assumed to me (unless I much mistook him) a principal
share in the merit of carrying the toleration act through the Irish
House of Lords - He was in his own mind at least for going further, and admitting them to
all offices, that of Member of Parl:t not excepted. Of a little more
than 3 millions of which the people population of Ireland he says consists
upwards of 2 millions are Catholics, about 600,000 Presbyterians,
and all the rest only about 400,000 Church-of-England men.
He has taken made an exact numeration of all the people in his diocese
distinguishing them according to their religions, occupations, sex
ages & the like.

Elliot says that Adm. Parker is loud in his complaints against
Ld Sandwich for not giving him force enough: that the Royal
visit was a contrivance of Ld S.'s to stop his mouth: but that it won't
do.
