1821. J.B. to Dumont Extract – Deontology Private.

Aristocratical the reverse. Democratical punishes swindling in all
cases and situations; Aristocratical tolerates rewards it in the case and
situation of a man of landed and entailed estate; see as to this one
of Romilly's bills. In the Democratical scale of reprobation, the
flagitious mischievous stands above the ridiculous: in the Aristocratical, the ridiculous above the flagitious mischievous. The Democratical refers or will soon
refer every thing to the standard of utility – greatest happiness of greatest
number – the Aristocratical, to as great an extent and as long as
possible, to the standard of taste, itself being the arbiter of taste.

In some of a mans thoughts and actions he alone has an
interest, in others, others: Hence a division of self-regarding
prudence into I. purely self regarding, II extra regarding Prudence.
Positive and Negative (or say Abstinential) applies to both.
