2. Consistently with economy, no such extra emolument
can be allowed. Public emoluments are
not a source from which fortunes ought to be
made.
3. From any such saving imported into Spain,
the whole profit to Spanish finances would be the
taxes upon the expenditure of the income afforded by
the capital so saved.
4. By Spanish Individuals would be gained only the
profit of trade upon goods consumed in Spain by
the returned functionary.

The question is by the Ultramarian would this spectacle
of functionaries feeding on the country and
then quitting it be endured? Answer No. Hibernicé
even by temporary absenteeship, dissatisfaction is
produced.

5. Supposable resource 5. Men for military land
and sea service. To Spain, no relief hence. In Europe,
men might be obtained at less price than they
could be imported from Ultramaria. Example, from
Switzerland. From Europe they would not come,
unless freely and thence well-affected: from Ultramaria
unless forcibly, thence ill affected.

Conclusion. Either without force or by force will money be
got from Ultramaria: whether it be for themselves or
you. If without force, it will be without the dominion,
and by free trade. In my eye, this is the only arrangement:
compatible with the interest of both or either
party.
27.
If by force, the force will be reciprocal, or upon
one side only so far as reciprocal, suffering will be
mutual, benefit none: loss the expence of the force.
So far as on one side only, injustice is the manifest accompaniment.
