1823. May 27
Constitut. Code

In those same hands by this same Constitution is was actually
placed the whole remainder of the power belonging
to the Executive Department. As to the sort of nominal
punibility and actual dislocability of those same great
functionaries the Ministers of the several Departments, without
the instrumentality if any of action, to the extent of that mass
of power, the King could not on any occasion operate, though
by the locating of the in the hands of the King himself, and
him alone the power of dislocating them, their effectual responsibility
and tutelary contract variable on their conduct than the influence of the constitutive authority
and that of the Public Opinion Tribunal, was, as is most obvious
in a prodigious degree diminished, it was not however by any
means reduced to nothing annihilated: for by by a certain degree of
popular dissatisfaction, even where in those countries in which
despotism wears has worn its most atrocious form – such as Spain,
Portugal and Turkey, it is by no means an unprecedented
sight to see this or that Minister, and in particular
those in whose hands has been the greatest share of power, dislocated:
and although in regard to the Monarch never can any such
dislocation take place without producing more or less of personal
embarassment and suffering: especially when it is not in his own personal and desire that demand
for the change has not originated. In this state of things
on the one hand whatsoever were the mischief produced by the any abuse
of the power attached to any one of the richly endowed offices
in question, there was always at all times a determinate individual
in whom the public saw thought not the immediate
authors of the evil, yet an unimmediate and author and
thus one author of the it in virtue of the exercise given to
his power of location in that instance. Thus in regard to
the patronage and to the advantage capable of being derived reaped
member of the legislative body from the use made of it,
as often as it happened that an individual located in one
of the richly near more or less richly endowed offices in question were a person connected by person or a or suspected to be connected by this or that tie of interest or sympathy with this or that
member especially if a leading member of the legislative body, upon the
consequence is, thus upon the transaction so circumstanced, the of the supposed corruptionist will the act of the Public Opinion Tribunal would be apt to regard him with to put upon his conduct a perceptibly disapproving eye.
