Preface

Castration

In the midst of the however of the pleasures I always
feel at the perusal of this masterly performance discourse, one
short passage or two in it I must take the fredom

whose public spirit I applaud and whose talents
I admire, but from much less personal and much larger
motives.

present publication is designed) the proposed Bill we
are told+ +Preface p. 5 "was thought expedient to be permitted
for the perusal" — of whom [would one imagine]? "of
"any Member of either house of Parliament. [Treasury
] I could have wished I must own on this occasion
to have seen some little notice taken [
and of the public at large
. It would be singular

of forming a judgement on a measure place [proposal]
of this sort depended altogether upon those accidents
upon which a seat in Parliament is
