bear to be represented: the money disbursed being
a prompt and expeditious measure would the most expeditious and least troublesome standard would therefore probably
be the measure standard chosen for calculating the number
of the letters: and if the number, given by actual in his
statement as the actual
examination had been judging from the disbursement
had exceeded the number received and answered
had been exceeded in any considerable degree by the
number paid for, the lu there would have been a
repugnancy in the two accounts, and a misapplication
of the public money would have been apparent
upon the fact of them. If then, in an annual
expenditure to an amount no no greater
amount than £ 450, in so extensive a department,
abuse and use together were both included,
the abuse alone it is plain, if any could be no great
object, of itself.
The Excise, it is true, and not the Customs rather than
is the department
which, if compared
with the
Customs, would
of the two
that would afford the fairest
sample
standard for judging of the expenditure that might be expected
on this score on the part of the Board of Police:
since the cor in the case of the Excise as in that
of the proposed Board of Police the correspondence must pervade
the whole real area of the kingdom, whereas, in the case of the
Customs it is only between the circumference boundary line and
the central point that the correspondence passes has to pass
Customs, the only points which the central authority
has to correspond with, are situated in the
extreme circumference. But in regard to
the expenditure of the Excise under this head
no documents have been been discovered.
