telling story is that of Bogusław Leszczyński, who while a Grand Treasurer (1650–1658) was offered a Chancellor's post, which he accepted in 1658. He bribed the members of the Parliament to grant him "absolution", and when one of them later opposed him, he asked, curious: "Who's this son of a bitch that I failed to pay off?" Grand Treasurers supervised lesser officials such as the Master of the Mint (mincerz), dyspensators, kurators, tax collectors (poborca podatkowy), superintendents (overseer of customs officers), customs officers (celnik) and subkolektors. It should be remembered that, in those times, goods—as well as people—were taxed not only at borders but at bridges, crossroads and city gates.

The number of Voivodes slowly increased when new Voivodeships were created; at its greatest extent, the Commonwealth had 37. See Voivodes of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth for details. Kasztelanowie (singular: Kasztelan) – Castellans: heads of kasztelanie (castellanies). Their number also varied. The most important Castellan was that of Kraków, whose position in the hierarchy was actually superior to that of a Voivode. The Castellans were of three categories: Kasztelanowie Wyróżnieni – Distinguished Castellans (of Kraków, Vilnius and Trakai). They were seated among the Voivodes. Kasztelanowie Więksi (Krzesłowi) – Major Castellans (there were 31). Kasztelanowie Mniejsi (Drążkowi) – Minor Castellans (there were 49). Kasztelanowie Konarscy (Koniuszy) – Equerry Castellans (there were 3). See Castellans of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth for details. The Senate also included Bishops of Poland. See Bishops of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth for details. After 1668, though there was no law explicitly forbidding it, no non Roman Catholics were nominated to the senatorial offices.
