Parly Reform Sinecures
Certain penalties taken at papist
Thus stands the matter, upon the face of those ordinances
which have for their source the supreme power
in the state: viz. that power which is in general regarded
and acknowledged as supreme and to which all other
authorities our subjection and with without exception
are supposed to pay and for the most part really do
pay obedience.
Unfortunately however instances are not wanting
in which a power not like that which Burton
speaks of behind the throne but even considerably beneath
the throne is to certain this and that purposes and those very not
unextensive extensive ones greater in effect than that of the throne itself – and
this is one here may be some of them.
In the present instance this super supreme ultra-supreme
power is lodged in the hands of a Junta, composed
of four "great characters": 1. the Judge of the Court of Admiralty
the King's Advocate,
the King's Proctor
and the Registrar
and by the effective form material and efficient power of the Junta,
the formal power lodged in and exercised by the hands
of George the 3d is to no inconsiderable extent reduced to to the
of a state equivalent to that of Ferdinand the 7th.
