Police, who acts as President.

3. Public Counsellor.
4. Magistrates, one or more.
46 56 or 15. 5
For no one of these is emolument
intended. Proof
1. Per 319. In these situations
service is compulsory
2. Per 320. Secretary, elected
by them, is to be
paid out of the District

Masters, no mention
47 57 or 16. 6
Economy, good. Where
sufficient power the sole

demand for skill, time,

because necessary.

III. Class 3. Paid or not pd.
1. Provincial Deputations
324 &c–
2. Education Establishmt.
366. to 369.
49 59 or 18. 8
1. Provincial Deputation.
Members are,
1. President, the Supreme
Chief Goveror of the Province
326, 325: appointed by King this office
high emolument can
not but have been intended.
For, on his fidelity,
principally, rests Spanish
ruling few's chance
of retaining their dominion
in the Province. To
them, then, he must be
personally known; born
or long resident in Spain.
For a large mass of emolument,
so plausible a pretence
wd. not be unemployed.

2. Intendant. Not said by
whom appointed. But for
same reason appointed, it
was designed he should be
if not by King, by Councils
or by "Secretary for the Colonies":
per 222, one of the 7.
Ministers of state.
51 61 or 20. 10
3. The seven other Members
are (per 326.) to be elected
by the body of the
people: viz. by the District
Electors, the day after they
have elected Deputies to the
Cortes: 59. 44. 41. 38: they by
Parish Electors, they by Parish
; they
by Inhabitants: District
Electors collecte elected (73)
in secret scrutiny.
52 62 or 21. 11
By power and dignity,
then, it is supposed may
without compulsion be
engaged to serve and perhaps
without emolument:
for him no compulsory
clause is inserted.
53. 63 or 22. 12
4. Education Establishment.
In this case neither
Members who, nor by whom
appointed, is mentioned.
Every thing is left to Cortes.
