Defence

On the return of peace should any such restoration event state of things ever
take place under a set of rulers of whom so many of
whom have so much to gain by the continuance of the
war – on the return of peace down falls sinks this mountain
of profit to a more reach mole-hill: the Registrars
annual £38,000 for example to less than £300.

There would be time the occasion to put apply to the emoluments of all those
over grown over paid places the precedent already set in the case
of the Solicitorship to the Treasury and the Solicitorship
to the Stamp-Office.

At present consistently with the established rule
there would be any such thing as could not be any saving no pecuniary saving
could be extracted derived out from the measure. If those Officers
could not be ever put upon first salaries without making up to them
the difference in the form of pension those over paid officers could
Sinecurists and effectives together could not be put upon
fixt salaries. But the return of peace would to this
purpose constitute a new æra: and the return removal of war
being a state of things which it depended could not take
place without the act of government it would not surely
be contended that in case of war the government
would stand bound to reverse a bad pernicious mode of payment,
merely that the individuals in question might have the derive a
benefit of from it, as well might government hold itself
bound to commence go to war again give commencement to war for the same private purpose for their
advantage.
