1822 July 1.
Code
Supreme Question
6 Moral
7. Intellectual
17.
II. Intellectual inaptitude.
This too is here maximized.
Moral inaptitude as
above, all capable of
being done towards greatest
happiness of greatest
number, is —
saving the people from
such unhappiness
the production of what
is in Monarch's eyes
not necessary to his
own greatest happiness.
Small, however, at
the utmost is this
saving.
Witness the condition
of Prussia under
Frederic the Great as
described by Sir Charles
Stanbury Williams
in Earl of Oxfords
Memoirs 1822.
18.+
But in comparison of
others having liberal
education, appropriate
aptitude of Monarchs
can not but be at the
minimum.
True, of a certain
sort, man
being though in a
throne necessarily
subject to government,
knowledge is
commonly injected into
a Monarch.
But of what sort?
19.+
Moral what it is,
little material
Monarch's degree of
intellectual inaptitude
only to sinister sacrifice
wd his aptitude
be applied.
