It is no small comfort to me If in any thing what
I have written on this subject and on this part in particular
the be any thing that is at once true and capable of
being of use in its application to Spain, more or less of it
can not be much otherwise if applied to but be applicable with more or less exactness to the case of Portugal,
and it is matter of no small comfort to me, that
when the case of my best friends is on the carpet, the same observations
that addressed as they are not to their own but to another
nation — written in short without any particular
view taken of the state of theirs nation. the same
observations may not be productive of feelings so unpleasant
on the part of my best friends as if they
had been addressed immediately to themselves
The matter I have got up as above is not
in a state in which it could with decency be addressed
by me to the Cortes. I send it to you, for
the chance of your thinking it capable of
regarding it as affording a chance of being of use if
sent by you to Your Brother.
A duplicate goes at the same time to Spain
Madrid to Mora who had asked for it with a
view to the translating of it. He has already besides
the titles of the Letters, and Letter 1 containing the Plan of the work, a long
Letter intituled Interests concerned. There is no
time for getting a duplicate of this ready for you
by the present conveyance: nor does it appear to me to
at present of any particular use with reference to the present
question.
