Panopt. Letter II Finance. Cancelled.
Gentlemen will I hope forego my presumption—but it
is not till after 63 tears of life, and whereof some five
and forty or thereabouts chiefly occupied in the observation of laws
and their effects—that on this as on so many other occasions I feel myself I remain not quite so well
satisfied with invariable supply for indefinitely
demand variable demand, as some gentlemen appear to
be: not quite so well satisfied with its being reconcilable to
the abovementioned rules of human prudence. Fixt penalties: why in
some instances the suffering present loss is might be excessive, while in other instances
it is than covered by the profit of the office: fixt intervals
for judicial operation: whence in some instances unnecessary delay,
in others promptitude: odds against the proper
and necessary quantity of time always as infinity to
one: such fortunately for the existence of the country is
not the judicial procedure of a Committee of the House of
Commons. This may to some eyes shew as theory:
but whatever be the name given to it, it is from practice—
from the practice of every Session and of the highest Courts—
and from the utmost daily practice of looking into that
practice—that it has really been drawn deduced.
+ These are so many
parallel analogous cases, which
amongst others
I have at different
times had occasion,
though with such
fruit or rather absence of
fruit as leaves me
little indeed to boast
of—to endeavour
to hold up in print to public
view.
