1823. June 9
Constitut. Code

Suppose now On the other hand suppose that though neither of
the candidates be to any such degree absolutely unapt, as
that any determinate ill effects should be seen to result
from his want of aptitude, yet in comparison in
such sort as to be perceptibly below par on the scale of
aptitude, yet one of them there is to whom though above
par on the scale of aptitude, the one who is not
above par has been preferred. This is the sort and degree of corruption,
against which neither in the universally applying dislocative
in the hands given to the Constitutive nor this in addition to all
remedies whatsoever which the nature of the case admitts
the application of can ever operate as a compleatly
adequate preventive. But so long as the effects of corruption
rise not above this height neither the framer of
the Constitutional Code nor any speclation of it needful
much dissatisfaction at the contemplation of the
works.
