He shouts: "Oh!!?Monstrous!!!?that twenty six State Cormorants should swallo…w annually an aggregate sum: under the name of salaries, independent of the indefinible emoluments which result from other sources of gain amounting to?£453,692. Can we any longer wonder that the love of Place in these men should supersede every more exalted consideration." .The mace rests on a scroll which hangs from the table: 'Plac[es] Earl of Liverpool 14,000,? Mr Vansittart £7,500, &?Ge Rose £16,551?Vist Melville £11,000? Mr Wellesley Pole £10,000.' On the floor is a paper: 'Droits of Admiralty' [see No. 10967]. On the right behind John's chair Ministerial members sit in a close row, with a second row standing behind them. One stands on the extreme right holding a long scroll whose coiled end is under John's chair. It is 'A List of Placemen Pensions and Sinecures?Lord Arden £38,574 [cf. No. 12802]?Earl Bathurst and C°?£37,225?Lord Castlereagh for Two Years Service £71,000?Ld Ellenborough £24,100?Ld Eldon £40,000 & & &c?Marquis Camden £23,000.' .The members are burlesqued; four of them say: "I swallow?£10,000 and do very little for it"; "and I £16,000? for doing next to nothing"; "and I 40,000£?for doing less"; "and I [Castlereagh] £71,000?for doing nothing at all." A fifth, wearing tartan with a Scots cap and taking snuff from a ram's horn mull (evidently Melville), says: "and I 18,000?for doing worse!"
