of these contributions, to be paid for any given span of time, by the inhabitants of the Mother Country, being
given — any sum which, coming from an extraneous
source, such as that a Colony, into the hands of the government of the Mother Country,

upon such terms — every such sum and such sum only belongs to the account of
profit to the Government, and thence to the community, of the Mother
Country at large.
