The Duke of Argyll to Mr. Herbert.
"Post Office, yw{v 20/A, 1861.
" Mv DEAR Herbert, " I really think that the Bill, as now drawn, is nonsense. Read the Preamble from the words ' cheerfully granted,' What is it that you cheerfully grant? It is the 'supply hereinafter mentioned,' and It is a supply 'to defray the expenses incurred in the year.* ''But the only supply 'hereinafter mentioned' is the ivhole nine miUions, and the words ' such furiher supplies as we may from time to time grant' must r...efer to some supply further than the nim millions!
What else can the word 'further ' apply to? Further than what? Clearly further than the ' supply herein- after mentioned,' which supply is specifically defined to be nine millions. The trutn is that the attempt 10 reconcile the 'granting' of the whole nine millions, with a profession of granting only so much of it as is required in the year, is an attempt which makes a mess of the whole thing.
