Jeremy Bentham to the Hon. Leicester Stanhope
Q.S.P. Saturday 27 March 1824
Mine own Stanhope (There's some honest addrest his favorite friend.)
I wrote to you so amply by Lord Byron's
messages who departed here about a week ago
that there is neither time nor need for much
more by the present comparatively tardy
and uncertain because maritime conveyance
I mean as to matter from myself directly to you: for by
this conveyance I am loading you with
an additional quantity of literary matter
of the dullest and driest hand the use of which will I fear afford but
inadequate payment for the labour of writing and reading publications inclosed
I hope to send a box of the articles, accompanied with do. of those
sent by by another conveyance
Bowring will have given you some quaint
account of his transactions with the deputies:
here you will see them operating for themselves
and your now old new found friend speaking to them
and for them, and to have little purpose.
Morality and intellectuality go hand in hand:
this, intellectuality for example, when we have him being the select, what
are must be the Ordinaries when you have these? But this
should be a reason – not for relaxing but for strengthening our existence.
