legislative dispensing powers – and of much more than
mere dispensing power – original legislative
power power – and by a Minister who to
compress this usurp usurped this illegal legislative power, employs
and abuses the Executive powers that
lawfully belongs to him – if this be not a
state crime and a crime of little less than the
first magnitude – how should a man who wanted
to committ a crime, go about it, so as to
effect his purpose, if this were a price offered
for a state-crime.

The case would certainly have been a clearer
one if instead of keeping in the receipt of
£ so many thousands a year and in the plan to which
so many thousand a year are attached, a
man who is not fit for any plan to which
thought, spent, or was required – a tenth
part of the money once paid had been given
him without his being y in the plan. Corruption
– favourable corruption – makes the
proof of the crime the clearer – makes the
for doing the mischief the more indisputable – but is it the only crime
– is it the only mischief of the crime? By
no means. The Taken by itself, the pleasure
the profit the pleasure a man reaps at the receipt
of a sum of money is no evil but a good: suppose
no
