I have spoken of 2,000, as being, without impropriety, capable of
being taken for the standard number, with reference to which my
proposed lesser scales may be termed reductions. My reason for specifying them is as follows.
, especially when coming from a certain weight
as for example the Treasury will sometimes appear in
the eyes of Honourable Gentlemen than present itself as a
firmer ground of reliance than were there one individual
opinion. I mean no sarcasm, the authority I mean is
not that of will over will, but of opinion over opinion.
No longer of this about ten years from the time.
On the The Order numbers agreed on as per Contract in
1795 being 1000, on the 25 March 1800 it was that
I received a Letter from the Treasury, stating mentioning the corr concurrence
of the Duke of Portland (the Secretary of State) and
written to acquaint me "acquainting" me ( such are the words of it) "that the
"proposed Building of a Panopticon is to be calculated to accommodate
"2000 persons."
The date of my first Proposal is 15 Jany 1791.
This then is had been nine years and upwards passed in
consideration, or at least applicable to the purpose of
consideration⊞ ⊞ and in very high places sufficient in which desire to find reasons grounds had such been to found not merely for reductions but for annihilation – and at the end of this nine years what is the result? and such not without opposition⊞ and the result is – and? not any red a red any substraction from
the number originally agreed upon, but a multiplication of
it.
