Objective Necessary War. Necessary
wars may still have
place.

Answer. Security to
British Isles. No where
else such effectual
security against attack.
Such facilities for attack.

But there are are there not such things as necessary wars — True: Yes:
to some countries: but not to the British Isles. Of all
countries on the surface of the globe earth these so fortunately
situated though now as unfortunately circumstanced spots
are in the highest most perfect degree exempt from all such reasonably necessary
no other country so effectually secured against against hostility:
no other country so well qualified for preventing it.
By any man who had the interest of the people of the British
Isles or that of the people of Hanover at least, the
plague would soever have been imported into the both, then
the throne crown of Hanover perched upon stuck as it is upon that of Great Britain ☞ quote the words

or 10
But because George
was like other Kings
and Fox and Granville
like other Statesmen,
Hanover was declared
united to Hampshire
and Junius
list of conquests of
power over virtue augmented:
300,000
more German slaves given to
Hanover: and so support
dignity more taxes
old and new

But the best of Kings are like all other Kings, and Charles
Fox and Lord Granville like all other Statesmen : and
then it was that which Hanover was united to declared to be a part of Hampshire
in the Right Honourable House, the same unnatural course
was proclaimed in the Honourable one: and thus it was
[that after they had been stript of whatever virtue they brought
into office, they were] turned into the street to add to the number
of those conquests of power over virtue the history of which the history is
to be found in is recorded by the pen of Junius.] and thus it is for the amusement
of the best of Princes Hampshire has received from Lord Castelreagh an accession
of three or four hundred thousand in slaves more, and of the
German race breed, and the to support the additional dignity
the slaves no new and old in proportionable addition
to the higher their taxes burthens

or 11
Conclusion. Even now a
Lord or Country Gentleman
who had not more to hope
from office &c for relative
or dependent, than
his share of war expenses,
might
prefer peace; and
thence wish to see
this bar to war kept.

If Be this as it may in regard to Hanover and
Hampshire, if in what has here been observed concerning
the utility of the national debt there be any truth, let
this be supposed, it will follow a consequence is that even in the existing
state of things, reform out of the question, a Lord or Country
Gentleman who has not for some relation or dependent immediate demand for or prospect
accompanied with a near prospect of some office or
other douceur the value of which will be clearly preponderant
over
over that of the burthen
of which a fresh war
would fasten upon his
estate, might see it his
to be f his interest
to keep in keeping in full forc
magnitude and force
that only possible security
which the nature of the case affords for peace.
