The general area so clear and undisguised, and if the particular
result fall short of it and was at variance with it and failed of corresponding with it
it was only the discrepancy was only case of of the but nothing more

the number of which are so strong and numerous, in
such of the compositions of Mr King and his Duke as
they have not been able to suppress. After so much
to find a ground and warrant for reduction reducing
the number of the number to its lowest particle 2150 was the lowest that at that
time Mr King had been able to find.

I could indeed
have helped him to a much lower: viz: the already
settled number of 1000 as per draught of Contract: [+] [+] but even that of 2150
was a reduced number
in comparison of
that which would

(as is shown in my paper § F)
would have resulted
from a fair use of
the data that were to
be had.
but and which he was in labouring to defeat the Penitentiary
Establishment Mr King knew as little of the Penitentiary
Establishment, in which labouring to govern the Colonial
Establishment of N.S. Wales he knew of the history
of N.S. Wales. In proportion as by the light of the When Mr King finds an Act in direct repugnance

little more of it than
the desire he had all
along entertained of
frustrating it. The
largeness of the number

was left, was the
result therefore — not
of mercy and moderation,
but of by
confusion of mind inadvertence and
ignorance. In application of to his purpose he quotes it as

What was impossible is that that Act a prior
Act should have any thing in it to restrict the numbers whatever
ma magnitude may have been given to the establishment
by this posterior Act. What was impossible
is that in that Act there should be any thing favourable to
the design manifested by Mr King. in this letter by the Duke What was not
only possible but fact is that in that Act is contained
matter to which the principles manifested debarred in this letter
are in direct repugnance. The letter Of this Act of the
19th what Mr King the Duke professed to understand to be the
object, is to send keep all convicts in the Gaols that
can not be sent transported to N.S. Wales. But by the Act sends
