Policy of Serviles as to Remuneration
Note ( )

Test of aptitude none. 2. Means of frugality employed, absolutely none.
3. Means Means of obviating embezzlement and waste, not
irregularly and systematically applied, and taken all together
inadequate.
For producing official aptitude throughout the whole of the

This is the magnitude of the emolument: and in particular
of that part of it which is stands apparent upon the face of the
yearly salary: In black and white, and From authority, no and as to proportion

height on the scale of official aggregate appropriate
aptitude is a as the magnitude of the salary. In black
and white, and from authority neither this nor any other
principle of it in regard to aptitude will you perhaps
find laid down: But in conversation, and even in parliament
this is what you will find either expressly laid declared
or what is more tacitly assumed: and at any rate generally

richly endowed situations being continued, and uttered unopposed instant opposition,
inference from this circumstance is though but circumstantial may of itself be considered
as sufficient proof evidence, circumstantial evidence.
