Colonies & foreign
connections involve
all mattersmen's ideas about of foreign
concern in confusion
blind them to the
injustice of the most
palpably unjust war.
Take this away
and even officers
& men would be ashamed
of fighting
in a cause palpably
unjust
In cause ch. 2d
Dutch War.
Places in Colonies
paid by Mother
Country take subsidied
given to foreign
powers? Is it worth
the colony, which to
be paid for being governed.
— At any rate
it is not worth the
Mother Country
while to pay them.

A child with
an innocent child
with playing with a bit of
paper may give away
a metropolis into the
flames ruins. I speak
of an innocent
child — What
if he be malicious?
Jack the Painter
The employment of
What Jack the
Painter has been
the employment
of Mr Pitt, only
upon a larger
scale with less
ability indeed,
but with superior
perseverance
Jack the Painter
was hanged: Mr
Pitt continues
the work of mischief
in the same
post which enabled
him to begin
Jack the Painter
was a low villain: man that never
filled it, a great
man.
Mr Pitt con employing
a post which
makes every man
great that fills it
is like every short man

Polit. Econ,
Bounties &c
A curious enquiry
what proportion of
national income has gone annually
to increase
of national capital?
This might be known
by giving the difference
betwixt the present
capital & that of a
former period, taking
into account the difference
betwixt the population
of the present
period and that former
one.
—
Bounties &c though
contribute nothing
to wealth by direction
of capital, contribute
something to it by addition
to capital.
—
Monopolies
The favour of awhole country
not of individuals do not
lessen the quantity of
birds only distribute it.
