Constitut. Code

While the sinister interest continues on its present footing
it is not merely waste of time trouble labour into and paper and money to propose any purpose anything that would be beneficial to the community
upon a scale sufficiently extensive scale to the worth them being of
is not simply useless it is positively pernicious. It
operates as it is a certificate a sort that on the part of those
to whom the proposal to on whom acceptance depends, a disposition
to act in conformity to the universal interest has place,
whereas the truth which a certificatethe the truth of which is
which neither is nor by possibility can be true. The persons to whom it is Addressed
as it is to are those by in whose exertions lies depends the only remedy state
of things in which anything good that depends on government
can ever be carried brought into effect. In this same certificate therefore is
continued the implied assurance that such exertions are not needed,
the existence Of this persuasion on the part of the projector a proof is thus
given much more conclusive and impressive than could be
given by any positive and direct assurance expressed in words: in this
case security the existing of the persuasion is indubitable: for it is upon the ground of
it that the man himself has acted, stating upon it those exertions of
his the fruit product of which is visible.

In England This impossibility hopelessness of anything good has ever been
a secret to the Whigs. Accordingly put it to show them anything good, their
answer advice is of course. Under the present Administration your plan
is hopeless: for it is a good one, and by them no good proposal will
ever be adopted. By us all good proposals will be adopted: look
if you wish anything good to be done, look to us for the doing of it.
From What is true is that there is not any ground for hope from those antagonists:
what is not true is – there is ground of hope from themselves.
In them there would no more be either power or will to do good, than
in their more fortunate and prosperous and fortunate adversaries.
