29. True it is — that if per by a Monarch, maintained
at an expense such as the above, good is by means of
that same expense produce in greater quantity than by a Commonwealth
Chief whose maintenance will not be a hundredth
part of the Monarch's: — true it is that on this supposition
the excess of expense as it is, may be not ill bestowed. But by
whosoever by the existence of any such excess of good is assented,
upon him does it next to prove or probabilize it.
30. If in the case of those whose share in the instruments
of felicity is greatest,the excess of felicity itself is an average
so small — and in some individuals out of the small number
belonging to this class, the non existence of any such excess
— less and less will be the probable amount of the
excess of felicity in the case of those whose those in the instruments
of felicity is less and less. And thus it is, that as in
is it in the next highest degree, un favourable to the maximisation
of felicity itself.
