Constitutional Code.

Ch. X. Defensive Force.
§. 2. Leading Principles.

10. or 2.
When hardships, natural
and factitious, are laid
aside, the situation of
the private with the
total pay of the lowest
paid labourer, would
become an object of
general desire.

11. or 3.
Moreover, the less the
pay accepted, the stronger
the relish for the service.

12.
II. Officers. To this situation
the office auction
applicable though not
so that of Private.

12. or 4.
Bounty. 1. Privates.
Whether any thing, or
any thing more than
a very small sum
necessary, where health
and strength without
hardship are maximized.

3 ed. 13. or 5.
The time for a bounty
is the law of urgency,
and as urgency has no
determinate limits,
so has bounty none.

§. 2. Leading Principles.

14. or 6.
2. As to Officers provision
too simple to
admit of any such
additional inducement.

VI 15. or 1.
Art. or 1. Length of an
engagement. 2. Privates.
Reasons for shortness.
1. The shorter the term, the
more powerful the

Art. or 2. Questions,
professional and local, not
constitutional, for consideration.
Term what: whether
1. For life.

according to age at the
time of enlistment.

17. or 3.
Art. or 3. Reasons
against such maximization
of the length.

every individual to whom
the situation proves
disagreeable, the disagreeableness
becomes maximized
by the hopelessness
of relief.

of finding volunteers.

in pay and bounty for
surmounting reluctance.

Art. or 5. Universally
so eligible have these
situations been made
that, exceptions excepted,
scarcely has the idea

needful, and no
adequate substitute on

individual for misconduct.

corps: in which case
a portion of his pay
