Sinecures

§. 2. Different sorts species of Sinecures – their effects and qualities

Unfitness for every good purpose, fitness for
many bad ones are properties that belong in common
to every thing to all Sinecures that were ever called known by the name of a Sinecure. But
among them different sorts species or classes may be
distinguished observed, distinguished from each other by the
shape and degree of the mischief which they mischievous effect of which they respectively
produce.

For the purpose, the practical purpose, of indi
pointing out and taking an estimate of their respective
modes and degrees of mischievousness, the classes
into which Sinecures may be distributed are three.
The order in which they will here be mentioned is
not the order in which they came into existence
but rather the reverse of it. The species or class which for the sake of
facility of corruption will be first mentioned, is not
only the simplest in the conception, but the least pernicious mischievous.
