stock of lendable money applicable in the adequate to any such purpose.
Had money been every so , neither
from the one nor from the other would he have been
able to obtain the necessary confidence. In this on
the score of will nor even in that of power could
could any sufficient reliance dependence be placed on in respect
to the fulfilling of any such engagement. On the one side The
conduct and the were removed bereft him the
necessary confidence, on the one side: the
parts in which he had himself, removed
it on the other side.
But though in Frederick's situation, Fredericks
line of conduct in this respect was a necessary an unavoidable
one, it does not altogether follow – it cannot
absolutely be inferred from thence, but that
independently of such necessity it may have
been an eligible one – the best that could
have been pursued – not only in his circumstances.
The case is no no means an unexampled
one, where by mere want of choice
statesmen are forced into measures statesmen
It is by no means without example – especially
in state government affairs, that a man has been driven
by necessity, into measures, acts which, had he
possessed a just conception of his own interests,
he would have been led by choice.
To Great Britain the adoption of the money hoarding system
is not nor ever has been a matter of necessity:
let us see whether there be any adequate sufficient reason
in favour of its becoming a matter an object of choice.
