En Colonies 1792
Beginning
Legislators
Your predeci
made one a French
citizen: hear me
speak like one.
War thickens round
you: I offer you
a great resource.
Emancipate qu
Colonies.
—
A just sense
It is a greatest
of the dignity should
keep France from
Colony holding;
on her part it is a bad copy
of an exploded
original
Nothing can be more
incontestable than
that
The Judas )
Britain, it is well
known does not
shrive a farthing
from her Colonies:
the ripening of the
civil establishment
which is great, and
of this one Colony establishment)
which is greater
is all her own: not
to maintain the expence
of occasional wars
which is incalentable.
This only
of she her Colonies as
to make plans, and
paid wars, pragmatic
with more plans
The action as elapsed
to pay the Colonists
for suffering the Monarchy
to govern them
The taxed to
form a fund for corrupting
its own servants

V. Judgements
—
have sent
£15,000 men there
- what are they designed
for who
are they designed
to cope with - not
the English: of them
you had then no
fears: only the Islanders
themselves
If 15000 men are
necessary to cope
with the Islanders
alone, how many
more must you
have to cope with
the English?

Monopoly
Bounties &c
A Minister
throws capital
to a spot by prohibitions,
and
drags it thither
by bounties,
and when the
Image is big
enough to be
seen, all this
sa be, is my
creation.

Monopoly
Observe now what
you get by all
this monopoly.
You get the less you
are suffer at by the armaments
you employ
against smuggling
in the vain hope of
preventing smuggling
All this is no moral
ch less, add to
which the waste &
necessary attendant
upon confiscation.
II Ar
Oh but it is not
to oppress the Aristocracies
that we send pursue))
the business the armament, it
is only to defend
and rescue the good
republicans, whom
the Aristocratics
keep under oppression
-. The good
republicans are the
great majority: we
do not doubt of it
and if they were not
it comes to the same
thing, for as the aristocrates,
leave leaving no
forfeited all re- claim to the rights
of men and citizens,
millions thousands of aristocrates
go for nothing.
Answer
No need of sacrificing
either party: independence
is a middle
term in which they
would all be ready
to agree sake 9.the
other course, do what
you will, half the
people are miserable
take this course, they
are all happy.

IV Aristocr
, but as must not
presume guilty
we must not presume
aristocracy
- and redaction for what can be
greater guilt
Answer - It is so
far true that we
must not presume
men to act against
conscience.
We are not to presume
action against conscience
because: we are not
to be most forward to
be above presume what is
most least improbable
Rebellion or no rebellion
depends upon
good or ill
not upon good or evil
conscience.
No crime more mischievous
than rebellion:
but in a
civil war as no crime
nothing is is more frequent,
so no crime nothing
is less improbable.

V. Indponsible
You have sent
5 men of war
to defend them
against one another
Ask your Minister
of the Marines whether
In case has 50 more to said to
defend them against

sent 15000 troops
to fight Aristocrates
ask your War
Minister whether
ba can
spare 30,000
of his picked men
to fight Britons.

Hear a paradox
but it is a true
one. Keep Part

they are yours:
keep them th

as from this
misfortune. It
is of all things what
I tremble at the
thoughts of.
