In great despondency said I — and certainly with great reason — for so late as yesterday peeking into the Commons
L and seeing nobody but Mr Hobart, whom I accosted, taking
him for one of the Clerks, I heard from him that "gentlemen
"were by no means unanimous about it, and that the probability
was that it would go over to another Session — Going to
the Duke's with the sad news, found he had set off for Knowle
not to return till Wednesday. [viz: tomorrow]
Hovering about the Lords just now, saw Smith of
the Treasury, from whom I learnt for a certainty that the
Lords' power over the Bill is at an end, and that nothing can
hurt it now — He said he would come and see me —
asked me where it [viz: Panopticon] was to be — I told him that was
the very thing I wished to know —He spoke of Dent &
Thornton's objections as frivolous — when I told him that
it was not there the matter stuck, but with Ld Spencer
whose land it was, he drew up —as who should say —
ah, c'est une autre affaire
No — indeed I do not think we shall have the land
