Constitut. Code
The case in which corruption by intimidation is capable
of having place is therefore reduced to that in which corruption
by intimidation is connected with corruption by
remuneration: the state of intimidation in question having for its
efficient cause the fear of losing a portion benefit of the matter
of good which has been procured from conferred by the intimidating
hand.
Such then will be the effect of the proposed universally
applying dislocative power here proposed to be vested in the people
in their quality of members of the Constitutive authority: it
will fulfill the end of government: it will be an effectually
preventive of depredation and oppression in every other shape
at the hands of rulers. It will not indeed be an operate as a compleatly
effectual preventive of corruption of the in the
shape of corrupt remuneration in a few particular instances.
But so few will be those instances, and the evil effects if any be so
inconsiderable that where on a national scale point of view
they may be regarded without regret by the most anxious
lover of mankind.
Suppose for example that the an instance of this
is that office the A and B being the choice made of the functionary
located by the locator has b as between C C. and in whose power the matter of corruption has been administered employed a Corruptor
and N. in whose favour no matter of corruption has a non-corruptor has been determined
by the giving of a daughter of C's to in marriage to a
son of the Locator's with a fortune greater than would have
been given otherwise. C and N being exactly upon a par in
respect of appropriate aptitude, and in particular in respect of
those qualities elements which admitt of degrees, namely knowledge, judgment
and active appropriate active aptitude: in this case the corruption
has place but by the supposition no ill effects whatsoever are among
the results of it.
