S6 - 11 or 1
In continuance of the
union, difficulty real. Preparatory
operations necessary.
s. In Creolia, census must
be taken (an.30) For the
number of Creole Deputies
(31.) depends on d. of souls -
s. 1070,000. In Spain, the
number is determined by
the census of 1791 (30.) but,
per do, it is left uncertain
whether, in any and what
Creolia provinces, there is
one.
S7 - 12 or 2
Where there is a census
any one, in whose power it
is, may, by destroying it, or
suppressing it, prevent the
sending deputies from that
province.
S8 - 13 or 3
[To be added 1 Sept
where there is no Census
none can be made Sole
authority competent, the
Provincial Deputation
(335.). Sole mode of
appointment for members
of Provincial Deputation
(per 328) Election by District
Electors of the Deputies
of the Corteo ]
S9 - 14 or 4
In no Ultramorine province
can any census be
made till its submission
has been perfected and declared.
[any commencement
given to the proce
by which the Deputation
is to be formed]
2. Per Constitution,
numbers of the Creolia
Deputies will continually
be on the change. For so
will that of the Electors,
thence of the deputies.
In so far as the case, between
Spain and Spanish
America, is the same as
between England and English
Americas (the emancipated
part) population
will increase faster than Spanish.

30 Seat of Government where shall it be. In Spain, say Spaniards, for America, say Creoles. Creoles say, Constitution
Per art 13. "object of government ... welfare of individuals of which society is composed" ie. of all where all agree: of the greatest number in case of conflict; if, in judgement of greatest number, it is better the seat should be elsewhere than in Spain.
92 or 17 or 17 3
Per all authorities in Creolia is the greatest number. See Population Table in the note () In what province, than, of Creolia. In Constitution not said: proof that the either saw not, or would not appear to see, the possibility that, under Constitution, the seat would be elsewhere than in Spain [ Under a deputation, by which shall the choice be each time made? by the whole Cortes? or by only the Creolian part.
93 or 18 or 8 4
Creolians, to Spanish population
as two to one, will, or ought the representations of the two, to consent that their convenience
should be sacrificed to that of the one?
94 - 19 or 9 5
In lieu or aid of reason, shall precedent be looked to? After each Union in British Empire the seat of Governmemt has been in the most populous
nation.
[Confessed honour it must be, of this arrangement not superiority of population, but of power was the real course]
95 or 20 or 10 6
As to difficulty: in transforming
the seat from Europe to America, King of Portugal found none.

96 or 7
In this 2nd and the first Cortes
these knots were cut: at the next they will have been found renewed.
97 or 22 or 12 8
Seat of Government thus changed. Creolia will be the principal, Spain the dependent
country: the tables will be turned: so Creolian relief will be sought out at the expense of Spain.
98 or 23 or 13 9
With this prospect, what will Cortes do?
1. Set the prosperity of Creolia
go on unimpeded? If then obtains the superiority.
2. Endeavour to impede it to keep Creolians, weak, poor, and blind? sad, were they willing: secretly would they be able. As above, without blinding Creolia, they would not blind Spain.
99 or 24 or 14
Beneficial as to present peace, the reported submissions in Spanish America are in their tendency detrimental by probabilizing the retention
of the dominion.
