Dumont first communicated Extracts from Bentham’s
writings to the “Courrier de Provence” & writes to Bentham
that the papers were thought sound & useful & had
been well received. “Continue your course,” he says –“& more courageously – for the goal is in view. The suffrage of
the few who think will repay you for the indifference
of the many – the reputation of one book prepares
the way for another.” In another letter Dumont
says – “In the name of your own honour, – finish what
you have begun – & be not diverted from your object.
You are young enough for a kingdom of this world.
Write and bridle my wandering opinions.”
Bentham sent his book on Parliamentary
Tactics to the Abbé Morellet to be published
in Paris, accompanied by this characteristic
letter.
Sir
