1824. April 23
Constitutional Code.

To the possession of these annuities no public service, no obligation
of rendering public services in any shape is attached or so much
as professed to be attached. But the power of locating successors is in the
hands of the annuitants themselves, and being mostly aspirants
after still richer sinecures of which the location is in the hands of
of a superior order, hence the inducement to
those masses of reward to the most purposes possible,
is eventually adequate.

To be supposed conversant with any work which has for
its object the exposure of the , and the of an apt
remedy would be morbid fatal to the aspirant's hopes. This is so fully
and universally understood, – understood from the whole time of the
system of instruction and deception pursued there that all express
declaration of it would be superfluous. Fatal accordingly to an
aspirant's hopes would be the bare suspicion that to in his eyes the
present work were a subject of approbation: dangerous therefore to
the last degree the suspicion of his were so much as had it in his
hands.

From By the application thus made of the power of intimidation,
the of that gives direction to the application
made of the matter of reward is the more clearly evidenced.
Politics, morals and religion subjects of the most importance
in the whole field of instruction thought and action fro those the spirit of enquiry
is with the utmost anxiety excluded.

On the subject of religion when a is given offered – it is not
for any such service as that of in this or that part of the
field is well grounded – but, that which is ordered
when the rectitude of the an opinion being assumed, the that which
is regarded as the plausible argument is produced, for the purpose may for its object
the proving that same opinion is well grounded. But the sort of
proof may just as easily be adduced by one who himself
is persuaded of its being ill grounded as by one who is persuaded of its
being well-grounded. Of In regard to every one by whom a is thus offered
things are thus plainly demonstrated: that his object as to
error, to produce insincerity: and that under the mask of piety his motive
is is either self regarding interest in respect of the hope of as for
a larger share of the profit
of corruption, or at any
rate, general sympathy for the
system of corruption and
everything that as well as every person that belongs to it.
