§. 10. Foreigner bid
Note (a) continued
Still more eminently beneficial — not to
say undeniably needful — would similar assistance
be, to the several newly-planted or -planting States in
America, offsets from the Spanish and Portuguese
Monarchies. In Spanish Ultramarine, the assistance
might have for its sources Spain and Portugal: in
Portuguese Ultramaria, Portugal and Spain. But,
to any one of these infant States, beyond all comparison
more useful would such assistance be, as the
Anglo American United States are so exclusively competent
to afford: if, for example, Congress, in which the
quintessence of Anglo-American wisdom is concentrated
were invited to make the choice.
In this an
of similar advice
would be groundless. —
Why? —
, because no
sinister interest
would have place.
and because, if it
had place, no
chance would it
have of
obtaining its ends.
An aggregation of this sort would be not
only a source of information, but a bond of fellowship.
Note , on this occasion, the practice
of literary and scientific societies: particularly in so
far as freedom has place reigns in them. In that these cases, no political
power being possessed, accession of associates is not
dreaded. End of the Note, and of the Section.
