86 - 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.
87 - 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.
88 - 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 ]
89 - 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 Government
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 could
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.
