Judging from this investigation

Upon the face of these precedents, the question
as between franking and payment does not turn
out to be of t promise to be of that importance
that was at first expected, because the greatest
probable amount of the payments likely to be made
in this score, does not, as far as these precedents
afford an adequate standard, turn out to
be so great as was expected. But the truth is, seems to be,
that no decided inference can well be drawn from the one
to the other as to this point. In the case of
the Board of Police no precise limits can be set to the
probable copiousness of the correspondence: this much however
may be asserted without difficulty, that the
more copious it proves, the more serviceable, it
untill the serviceableness shall have begun to reduce the

demand for it.

Under the franking plan, if the above proposed
restrictions be adopted, all misapplication abuse
of the privilege is manifestly impossible: under the
postage-payment plan, standing on its present footing, and
unprovided w unguarded by any such restrictions,
abuse abuse misapplication to a certain degree seems
scarcely to be avoided: and as in the instance of
the proposed Board, the copiousness copious of the correspondence promises
to be unparallelled, unexampled, and as the room for such
ap misapplication abuse seems to be in proportion to
that copiousness, the magnitude of the abuse may might
in this instance come under the postage payment plan, even in such might
come to be considerable rise to a considerable
amount too
great to be neglected.
