1823. April 18
Constitut. Code

Envy an ? The capacity of enduring without
the sight of a statement such as this may be stiled as an uninstructive
best of appropriate moral aptitude.

Now then as to professions and boasts of
uncontrovertible of motives. In the debates
and discussions that have place on the ground of petition
have place in those United States, little or nothing in comparison of this
sort of talk is heard. Why? How so? Because in
1. the first place there is no such demand for them, in the
next place there would be no use for them, for there would be
no prospect of their gaining credence. 1. No such demand for them none.
In the power of By no functionary or set of functionaries is it there
any such power thus possessed as that of exercising depredation
or oppression in any shape, that of making of all the
interest of others that any such enormous sacrifice to his own
particular and sinister interest as is made in under all other
governments: any such power as that of exercising depredation
and oppression in other shapes to any such enormous to mark
at the expence of the rest of the community any such power, nor
consequently any such habit. The sinister interest not being
proved by his actions, there is nothing no such circumstance
that evidence calling for direct evidence to furnish a
disproof of it.

2. No credence would any such profession obtain if uttered.
In En. Under In a Monarchy whole prof while producing its
effects in the way of corruption in the trustees self selected
agents of the people, the matter of good is producing accumulated in their hands
and thence reward their person is producing its effects in the
way of delusion upon the people themselves. Talk in this sense
to be of money, power and factitious dignity, proportionably
falls undue favour if the delusion they are believed to be
of excellence. As of excellence in general, so of excellence
in the shape of sincerity sincerity in particular: so that when
they say their motives are so pure, their disreg sollicitude for
the interest of the people so intense their disregard for their
own interests so entire, the assertion of all those
as they are, is not the less followed in belief.
