Robert Allott, dean of Raphoe, be requested to preach before this house, at St. Margaret's church, Westminster, on Wednesday, the 26th instant, being the day appointed by his majesty for a general fast in this kingdom.—Lord Henry Petty moved, that this house, on its rising, do adjourn to Monday. Mr. Spencer Stanhope said, that before the question was put, he would beg leave to ask the noble lord for an answer as to a single fact, which he would state without any comment whatever; and that was, whether lord Ellenborough, who is one of the privy council, was also allowed to sit and vote in that department of the executive government, which was in common called the Cabinet Council? Lord H. Petty said, he had no hesitation in answering the question of the hon. gentleman, and to inform him and the house, that the noble and learned lord he had named as being one of the privy council, had also been summoned to, and had attended more than once, the sittings of what was commonly called the Cabinet council.
