(k) The pensions, which were quite disproportionate in comparison with the amount of the king's revenue, would undergo a certain reduction.

3.—Justice.
(a) The king would not decide in any cause until it had been properly tried by the courts of law.
(b) The number of law courts would be reduced, as every man, no matter his rank, must be regarded as a citizen in the sight of the law.
(c) The judges would receive no fees, and the forms of proceeding would be abridged.
4. Concerning the army, I refer to the memorial found among my papers, which alludes to it.
5. As regards the navy, it was arranged:—
(a) That the strength of the fleet was not to be sought in an increase of the number of vessels, but in those existing being kept in a good state and thoroughly equipped.
