1820 Aug. 30

§ Domination impossible Creoles unwilling
§. Creoles unwilling continued Endeavours excusable but hopeless

*18. 40 or 1.
Abovementioned bars to
the dominion physical,
follow the moral: though
not physical, not inadequate.

*19 41 or 2. 14. 15.

By public wish, if not
their own, Constitution
makers were induced, in
reality or appearance, to
endeavour at the preservation
of this dominion
subject many's inducemts
saving money in taxes, ruler's
do. encrease of patronage.

20 42 or 3. 14.
For subject many's inducement
disguise not
needful. Per 346 provisional
receipt – the whole
are at the disposal of national
treasury.

21 43 or 4. 16
But, without subversion
of the Constitution,
and rank, despotism in
the Ultramarine provinces,
receipts none: sole
fruit, mischief in & within both
reasons. First: truth will be the
case, without the despotism.

22 44 or 5. 15
Proof. By 335, 324, to Provincial
Deputation the
political Government of
the Province: of its ten
functions, the first –
"to examine and approve
"the division made among
"the people of the taxes
"required from the province"
except what by this body
approved, taxes none.

§ to Creoles subject many unendurable
23 45 or 6. 16
By it no taxes will ultimately
and generally be
approved. For a short time
in some of the provinces
perhaps yes: regard
had to the applications from
whence submission will
rescue them, and the present
want of intellectual
light. But whether ultimately
and universally
or even generally, judge
from what follows: and

24 45 or 6. contind.
and note that the submission
must be universal,
or the profit will be cut up
by the expence of compulsion,
and constant preparation
for it.

25 46 or 7. 2 from 19
Before any taxes have been
presented to this body for
approbation, the inequality
of the financial system, under
the name and guise of
equality will have been plain
to them.

26 47 or 8. 3
Per 346, provincial receipt
at disposal of national Treasury.
Good in Spain, if no
dominion over Ultramarinia:
received from Spaniards,
it would be distributed
among Spaniards.

27 48 or 9. 4
Not so received
from a province is sent to
Spain:(a) among Spaniards
it would be distributed.
By whatsoever returns the
purpose is pro tanto frustrated.
Only on condition
that of the military (including
naval) force destined
for defending Ultramarinea
against the inhabitants,
a large portion shd.
always be and be paid in
Spain, can the object be
aimed at.

Accomplished it can not
be, except in so far as, after
defraying in Ultramarinia
and by taxes in Ultramarinia,
a surplus, over enough
that expence is received
and remains in Spain.

28 48(a) or 9(a) 5
Including money's worth
as well as money.

29 49 or 10. 6
Of the Establishment in the
Province, the expence must
be paid by inhabitants of do.,
or instead of receiving from it,
Spain must remitt to it
a net balance.

§ Domination impossible Creoles unwilling
§. Creoles unwilling continued to Creole rulers unendurable

30 50 or 11. 7
If confined within the bounds
of necessity, Ultramarinia
neither need nor would grudge
the expence: if the emolument
of the Offices were confined
to the inhabitants of
the province: saving free interchange
as between province
and province. Then
would interests of subject
many and ruling few be
provided for: the one, by moderation
of its burthen of the
taxes; the other, by the equality
of the distribution of
the sweets of office.

To Creoles rulers unendurable

31 51 or 12. 1
For security, to the ruling
class in Ultramarinia, any
such equality, no provision
is in the Constitution: only
in the violation of it could
do. class in Spain find any
advantage.

32 52 or 13 or 2

Classes of functionaries
serving in Ultramarinia, are –
1. Paid assuredly.
2. Not paid assuredly.
3. Paid or not paid.

33 53 or 14.
Class 1 Establishments paid
1. Ecclesiastical.
2. Judicial.
3. Military stationed in Ultramarinia
4. Naval do.
5. Financial: viz per 326.
Intendant and his subordinates.

34 54 or 14 or 3
In kind, if no such dominion
and subjection, all
these would be necessary.
True: but not in quantity.
For watching against smuggling,
by water and land,
Watchmen not so many
or so highly paid are necessary
when the money is
to be spent in the province,
as when sent out of it.
