[Dependence] Dependence is by the tie of fear, or by the tie
of hope: fear from eventual evil: or hope of eventual good.

Dependence by the tie of fear is generally most effective:
the greatest evil, which this a dependent is capable of receiving at the
hands of a superior, being greater than more than equal to
the greatest good. Degree of probability of the result the same. The same sense produces more effective
dependence by the fear of losing it, than by the hope of
gaining it, the matter of both being supposed the same
punishment by the fear of it produces more a dependence
more effective than reward by the hope of it.
A The man who has an expectation of an , may
a place, say worth £11,000 a year, is almost always
living in a state of more or less comfort in the meantime
a state in which he and for an indefinite
length of time, may continue so to live. But suppose
him in possession of the place, which he may
be without any other means of maintenance than the
emolument attached to it, if removed out of it, and
no without any further provision made for him, in this case he is thus
reduced to state of extreme indigence and discomfort.
Thus, of acquisition and possession the conversion of dependence
by the weaker tie of hope into the stronger tie of by fear
is the consequence.

In the Under the English form of government, all
desirable offices without any exception worth taking into account
being in the gift of the Monarch, and to the greater
part of the extent, the power of dislocation being in relation
to the same office added to his hands as well as to the power of location,
hence, on the part of all part other members of
the community, dependence more or less effective is universal has place universally,
and the interest of the Monarch one member being opposite to that of all the rest,⊞1 ⊞1 hence in regard to chose who are chosen under the notion of their the interest of the rest against his, it
is his constant desire and correspondent endeavour to cause them to support
his interest at the expence and by the proportionable sacrifice of theirs,⊞2 ⊞2 hence under this that
form of government,
corruption is universal
all prevalent on the part of all
who possess or look and
all who look to possess
a share in it.
And, whatever may
be the variation in degree, as in that as is so in this respect in every other mixt and thereby limited Monarchy.
