1823. March 11
Constitut. Code

When a with a covering called a crown upon
his head, and a seat called a throne under his body, a
man is saluted King or Emperor, to begin with a quantity
of the external means of happiness equal to that which suffices
far from ten to a hundred thousand members of
the same community by whose labour those means have been produced is put into the hands of that one
member.

It is not certain matter of certainty that the
quantity of actual happiness thus produced in the breast
of that the thus favored individual is greater than that
produced in one the breast of the ten thousand or of the hundred
thousand taken by lot: what is certain is that the happiness
of the ill-tempered or gloomy King is not so great as that
of the good tempered ad cheerful day-labourer.

The most flagitious malefactor

If the amount quantity of depredation, and oppression and
and degree intimidation produced by the measure of evil produced
by an individual in a political community, the greatest quantity of evil produced
ever known to have been produced by the most
flagitious malefactor by his crimes is as nothing
compared with the quantity of evil produced by the
most beloved of Monarchs by his existence.

In compensation for all this evil it rests upon
the advocates of Monarchy to show if they are able, in
which may it is that by an individual with the title and
power of King or Emperor is produced a more than equivalent hass
of good is prod outweighing that evil so produced, and being at
the same time greater than that which would be produced
by that same individual in the situation of Chief of a Republic:
that a greater addition is made to the stock of happiness
in their respective communities by Emperor Alexander, Emperor
Frederic – King Lewis or King George, than by was by President Madison
or is by President
Monroe in the Anglo-American
United States
or else to acknowledge that
the greatest happiness of the
greatest number is not the
but that of the one whom is the object of their care.
