§ The subject value of the subject matter
in question of the same denomination
at different periods affords an
instructive indication of the forms
of government in the nations at which
they respectively took place. Apply this
observation to silver in England which
Originally the pound weight of silver
& the pound which is so stiled in money
accounts were the same thing & contained
the same quantity of that same
precious metal. At present the
accountants pound as it may be
called contains no more than about
one-third of the actual pound. In France
the accountants pound contains
no more than about one-fiftieth
part of the actual pound weight.
Hume in his thinking of James England
in the reign of James the first or
Charles the first in making mention
of England in making speaks of it
as being the only political state in
Europe in which in those days what
used to be called liberty but is now
more precisely & expressly expressively termed
good government in or any tolerably
clear conception of it had place.
☞ Jany 7, 1832. Parallel lines. Euclid's
J. B's method of dealing with them has the advantage
in so far as it applies to curve lines of all sorts:
whereas Euclid's appears not to have in contemplation uses
other than right lines: on J. B's plan, the that
applies in the first instance, applies alike to curves of all sorts:
but
but in practice, there
must be dist
between the line made
and the line to be made to
actuate the spike
