Pen; that the Committee for Accounts are good sober men, and such as hethinks we shall have fair play from; that he hopes that the kingdom willescape ruin in general, notwithstanding all our fears, and yet I find hedo seem not very confident in it. So to the Commissioners of theTreasury, and there I had a dispute before them with Sir Stephen Fox aboutour orders for money, who is very angry, but I value it not. But, Lord! tosee with what folly my Lord Albemarle do speak in this business would ma...kea man wonder at the good fortune of such a fool. Thence meeting there withCreed, he and I to the Exchange, and there I saw Carr stand in the pilloryfor the business of my Lord Gerard, which is supposed will make a hotbusiness in the House of Commons, when they shall come to sit again, theLords having ordered this with great injustice, as all people think, hisonly fault being the printing his petition before, by accident, hispetition be read in the House. Here walked up and down the Exchange withCreed, and then home to dinner, and there hear by Creed that the Bishopsof Winchester and of Rochester, and the Dean of the Chapel, and some othergreat prelates, are suspended: and a cloud upon the Archbishop ever sincethe late business in the House of Lords; and I believe it will be a heavyblow to the Clergy.
