Curious spectacle – In the
private & in public
purse of the nation held
out to an individual
by the unfaithful guardians
of it – and according to
no other return
to the office but a
disdainful rejection, or
an equally disdainful
silence.

He will not make any
such profession of confidence
as in the present
state of representation
must would be seen by everybody
to be false. What
soever advantage may be is to
be made by any such hypocrisy,
he to anyone
who may be disposed
to take it purchase it at that
price.

11 June 1811
Panopt. Heads for Observation on Penitenty Committee Report.

A Committee necessary
to report that
contract ought to be
kept.

Use of a Committee
here finding a pretence
for the breach of
a contract.

This pretence made
out of a phrase

Why Committee rules
their Treasury? – Answer
Because responsibility
is thus done away.

If the House extinguish
Panopticon they will
sanction all the
committed for the
retardation of it, – beginning
with Ld Spencer's
sitting under the Act of
1799 as to his hand.

The House – they little
imagine how
long a train of perfidy
insincerity and corruption
and waste of public money
they would be giving
their sanction and confirmation
&c.

Their sympathy excited
by the not compleatly
unmerited flogging of one a
of one horse – it remains
whether it will be insensible
to a system of opppression
on through the
active part of the whole
life of one individual without
his reproach.

The plan pursued for
so many years for depriving
the and keeping the mind of the author in a state of depression and
mankind of inaction, and depriving
the country and mankind
of such services as it
might be in his power
to render but has not
been so compleatly successful
but that enough
will remain to pursue the
of through the
track of futurity the
names of each of his
whose situation
scarce to them their name a
place in history.
