The sum being as mathematicians say given
whether in the vulgar tongue it be given or whether it be
taken makes in those at whose expence it is given or
taken - not much difference. That which is received in the way
of salary, or imprest, or purchase money for goods or labour
or goods sold is givenin present: that which is received under
the name of fees is rather not so much given as suffered to be taken:
for such has been the wisdom of parliaments and
such the probity of those by whom their counsils have been
, that which so a man be in office what a man carves for himself, and so
long as what is taken from the individual goes not
into the public purse, but in into the takers private purse
what the occasion is in which he takes and what on
that occasion the amount is of what he takes have
are questions which are nothave ha ever been thought worth thinking about
A sine case is where public money or money
which if taken at all should have been public money
is where money is by public authority a connivance given or suffered to be taken from the
public or from individuals and nothing done for it
no service rendered for it by one by whom nothing is
done for it - no service rendered for it. in pretence
of service rendered for it in the course of office, but
in fact not rendered for it.
As to (that is of you: even in so proper place
for asking) ask whos on the occasion of any of these good thing
sinecures why it so givesn or suffered to be taken the
is of any answer thing in the shape of an answer
be attempted the answer is — it is given in reward for
public service.
