Book 1. Chap. 11.
Of the Choice of Rewards Pages 16.

The number of rewards
few comparatively and
the grounds of those
easily discoverable.

Qualities desirable
in reward the same
as those in punishment
viz
1 Variable
2 Equable
3 Commensurable
4 Exemplary
5 Economical
6 Characteristic
8 Fructifying

In selectg Reward
attention should be
paid to the character
of the individual
to be influenced

Public regulations
not so perfect as
domestic

This compensated
by the number of
competitors

Money as a reward
is variable, equable
& commensurable
& frequently necessary

This not exemplary
characteristic or
popular

---page break---

It sometimes tends
to diminish activity

It has sometimes a
repulsive force

It may be as it were
annihilated by its
relative

Pecuniary reward
may however be
united with honour
as in medals

The Society of Arts
allow a choice of a
medal or a sum
of money

The value of medals
is sometimes
increased by the
design and the
addition of the name

A Brit: Stat: gives the
horse of the robber
to the person apprehending
him.

Virgil maker Eneas
promise the horse
& armour of Turmis
to Nisus if he will
go with him

The Roman System
abounds with rewards
of this nature

---page break---

Symbolic crowns
& triumphs

Honorary rewards
are exemplary

They may be created
easily

Orders of Knighthood
seem of this nature
but their symbols
are unnecessary

Honorary titles have
often been characteristick

Africanus
Romanoffs &c
Orloffs &c
Blenheim
The Appian Way

4. In the Sardinian
laws the names
of the sovereigns are
placed

An English Statute
is called the
Grenville Act.
His statute might
appropriately have been
placed in the Ho. Com.
by the side of Burke's

Imitative representations
of the persons
are good honorary
rewards

---page break---

When attended by
inscriptions

Most of these rewards
are only occasional
there are others
permanent as
Greenwich & Chelsea
Hospitals

Their utility has
been doubted
but they are
national exemplary
& magnificent
being limited
they may form
a species of nobility
among the Soldiers
& Sailors

They ought to be
adorned with the
trophies of victory

Every quality is
united in Patents
for Inventions.
