1824 Nov. 7 Revised Nov. 8 Constitutional Code
Ch. IX. Ministers Collectively
§. 15 Remuneration
§. 12. Locable who
Fictitious honor & dignity
39.
Art. 39 — conferred on any
one, other than him by whom
the service was rendered.
40.
Art. 40. It is either
1. Mislocated in toto.
2. Extravasated.(a)
41
Art. 41. In toto, to when now
Servient; not to servient.
42.
Art. 42. Extravasated, to when
Servient, and to now servient.
43.
Art. 43. On the contrary
purely beneficial, & by the
whole amount is all extra
vasation of reward when
natural, i. e. in so far as
without expence to Gov<hi rend="superscript">t
it diffuses itself without loss
among any, who, by any tie
of interest self regarding or
sympathetic, are connected
with the renumerationtee.
40@
@. By anatomists, blood
that has flowed out of its proper
vessel, is termed extravasated:
if into other vessels
the error loci is said to
have placer as in the case
of a blood shot y eye.
44
Art. 44. Reward extravasated
in toto examples.
As often as, for service
by a subordinate, reward is
given to his a superordinate, who without
him having has not had any part in the performance.
In Monarchies, naturally &
habitually does this injustice
---page break---
44 continued
pervade the whole of the
establishment: the more
entirely, the more absolute the
Monarchy, thence the less
the light of the public eye is
admitted into official operations.
Under this Code, by the exclusion
of arbitrarily conferred
reward, as per Art. §. 9 this
injustice is effectually excluded.
45.
Art. 45. Reward thus
extravasated — Examples —
1. Pension to the widow.
2. Pensions to the functionary's offspring
on his decease of the functionary.
3. Pensions to any more
distant relatives.
Post obit or post obituary
these pensions.
4. Perpetual income,
in land or otherwise, to him
& descendants, as if purchased
by him: thus for the benefit of
this individual, generations
indefinite in numbers.
Subjected to depredation.
46.
Art. 46. Preeminently
repugnant any
compound of factitious
dignity, with fractional
masses of supreme power,
legislative & judicial, the
whole extravasated
running in the blood of the
first remunerationee, from
generation to generation,
through a boundless line
of descendants: by none of
46
of whom in the main
supported public service
so remunerated, could
any part have been borne,
those generations loaded
moreover with the obligation of
keeping repaired all
breaches made, by dissipation,
in the excessive
mass of wealth, originally
combined with the other of that
inordinately rich compound:
the whole for the perpetual
saturation of appetites
essentially insatiable.
47.
Art. 47. Examples see
in Art. 30: appellatives
which elsewhere designate
little more than the
dignity, designating
in one nation, many of
them the above substantial
compound@ for, in the
race of waste & corruption,
distanced are all other
Governments, by that
which in the language of
the indefatigable proclamations,
is the envy &
admiration of the world.
