words, it might have been thought, would do away
all notion of claims to tees or enioluineot. The
next section of the Act granted a crmatiesssatiim of
3,5001. per annum, to Theophilus CL-eneute% Esq.
who held the oilier, and a reversiou to hie wife. To
supply the place thus abolished, a Receiver-GC.

was there any recognition of the principle allowing
any f: es or emolument to be taken. Sir Henry
Cavendish was the first persist' who held the office,
which he did to h a death, which happened its 1801,
and he was succce died by Sir George :thee, in comer-

though no direct Mauer aphis' it might appear.—
Such was the stale of the case, with regard to the
creation of the office,and act for its r4gulation. It
could scarcely be conceited, that in the face of
in Act of Psrliansent, pointing out the cueing
of salary for discharging this office, et not exceeds

this fcrineutatoni of the Turks had its sourer ouly
in the avarice of the Cornmaudant-Proprietor of
