1822 May 21
Economy &cCh. VI. Legislature
§. Securities

The Member of one of the two Chambers located
by a Chief functionary, and upon the death of them each of them,
a successor to him located by genealogical affinity with
relation to him: further addition, with or without factors of
such genealogically located successors, being capable or
not capable of being made by the Chief functionary of the time being and his
successors.

Here the sinister sacrifice is of the same sort and effected by the
same manner means: but still more burthensome.

Not only a particular class of men is established but a particular race
having sharing among them a particular and sinister interest,
combining and operating in a state of everlasting hostility to
the universal interest: the one privileged people at large objects of unassuageable
hatred and contempt to the members of this privileged
class: of hatred for the resistance which they can not but oppose
in so far as regard for personal security admitts allows they can not
but oppose
to whatever measure they see operating to their
prejudice: of which measure for the purpose of depredation and
oppression in all shapes there can never want a continual
encrease: in contempt for the inability under which the objects
authors of the oppression will see the victims labouring: and
for the magnitude of those deficiencies which it is the constant endeavour
of the oppressors to encrease.

See Reference to some paper in which the evils of Aristocracy
are depictured in detail.

In Those sentiments of unassuageable hostility of the members
of the privileged race the existence of which is the worst of nuisances
their perjury will from generation to generation, be imbued, and
no generation the interest-begotten prejudice, begotten
by this sinister interest will require an ever encreasing force.
The Being so long continued In regard to this right to do wrong the longer the continuance of it has been
the more strongly confirmed with on the part of all those who share in it
and enjoy it will be the persuasion that it is a natural one.
A system of theology
will be framed for the
support of it. A God
will be created to whom
will be assigned the office
of creating two races:
two races of essentially
different substance under
the same form and appearance
one to command
the other to obey: one to
be in a state of undisturbed
felicity, the other in a state of unmitigated and hopeless misery wretchedness.
