Colonization SocietyCh. IV Means of effectuation
Inducements to
§. 4. Government.

2)

So much as to the question – what may and should be expected to
what be the inducements which ought to be looked to as by which if at all the cooperation of
Government. Now as to those which ought not. What
is has been said under the former of those two heads may by many
be regarded as not worth the mention: not so what will now
comes to be said under the latter of those two heads.

That then which will not be among the inducements
be G on the part of Government will be – in one word,
patronage: which being (sufferedin the mathematical
sense of the word) given, given in a fundamental article
belonging to Ch. XI intituled Proposed Management
and Government in the Colony.

On this occasion, a single word Liberiá speaks
Volums. In the foundation of Liberia, no expense
has there been to the mother country: no patronage for the
profit of any of its rulers.

Here then will be a list – an experimentum crucis
as to the ends in view of by which the conduct of his Britannic Majesty's advisors
will have in relation to the his proposed plan of colonization
will have been determined: if they be those which are
here herein above supposed, their concurrence cooperation will not be afforded
but on condition of them taking the government of the
Colony, whether it be, into their own hands: for in that way only
cab will it be possible for them to extract from it the sweets of
patronage: if they be those by which in relation to colonies
the conduct of Governments of this and all other mother countries (with
the single exception of the case of Liberia) have has been practice
that place, the Government
will not in
with the business
of Government, but leave
the matter to be settled
between Founders and
Settlers as they can
agree: as to which least mentioned state of things see Ch. XI Proposed Management and Government in the Colony.
