word this, small as it is, is every thing to Mr Long. Save
his morality, you destroy his logic. Admitt that in
all the provincial, the particular J Gaols in provinces
have been made — you have them only to improve
the improvements to be adequate ones adding
a few other suppositions — and you have the semblance
of an argument the to prove that there is no
longer any occasion for the advanced and promised
general national one. But notice but a single d
particular proportion out of the extent <add>broader amplitude</add> of these
universal ones — but a single County or Place out
of the aggregate number of greater Counties or Places there comes
the question upon you immediately — what are we
N. B
who live belong to this our County the better for the
improvements whatever they may be that have
been made in other counties?

Before the head of logic is concluded, I will
beg your Lordship's attention to the word in improvements.
The Improvements if it means any
thing, means any alteration whatever which
he who speaks of it approves of, or finds it
convenient to appear to approve of. When a
shopkeeper labourer in his Villa at the bottom of Grays Inn
Lane or on the road to Hampstead where your
Lordship may see the idea realized half
a dozen weathercocks operating stable in a
situation where amongst them they point to
every point of the compass at the same time,
will his carpenter or any other man of common
urbanity dispatch his letter to call the creation and an
improvement?
