The Auditor of the Exchequer, rather than the Chancellor of that
same Court, for this reason. The portrait is
be such, the imitation of which as may be rendered taken for the subject object
rather of a prohibition — and of such a proho prohibition
having a capital punishment for its ,
without danger or inconvenience. The situation
of the Chancellor of the Exchequer is such — that
the portrait of the person who fills it may be
expected to be found already already found at all times in the
shops — in all manner of forms and sorts. Less
as well as alarm to individuals — not to speak of
the still existing danger of underground delinquency
would be the consequence. True it is, that of the Auditor of the Exchequer
it may be expected that there should be
commonly a portrait or two in the shops by different
hands. But the probability presumption is against there
the existence of it in any such ... be requisite to mark out for the degree of the
preferred prohibition:: and should the presumption
prove erroneous, the provision repealing the license
from this granted by the officer in question will (besides
correcting the case of family portraits and the like)
be sufficient to prevent the prohibition from being productive of any
inconvenience.

As to the Sovereign it is evident the reason
above adduced in the instance of the Chancellor
of the Exchequer, applies to this still more popular
as well as exalted character with still
superior force.

The sanction of the Sovereign, though certainly
in other respect desirable is can not in this case even on can but
the ground of prudence be stated as indispensable.
In Exchequer Bills the sanction of the Sovereign does not present
present itself in any shape.
