§. Name of principle

If A man of bad principles is not regarded in ,
man of no principle its on the supposition that each the law
some good.

Accordingly it is scarcely otherwise than when regarded contrasted
with in contrast with a man of no principle, that
a man his being regarded as coming under the denomination
of a man of principle is regarded considered as a just ground for
regarding him with approbation.

A man of no principle is accordingly a man who to whom the appellation of a man of no principle is
applied is accordingly a man who without due regard
to consequences more or less remote, and to himself or
others connected with him of a nature more or less
pernicious, yields to every is in the habit whatever of yield giving way to whatever solicitation happens to be administered
by present or nearly approaching pleasure
or exemption, regardless of the distant future — heedless of
the future pain or loss of which such pleasure or exemption
may become productive.

G. a

By a man of bad principles is seems to be commonly understood a man
who for the general direction of his conduct is supposed to have regarded as having
laid down to himself a some general rule or set of general rules,
by the observance of which by which in so far as observed
the welfare well-being of those persons whose welfare lie within his
field of his action is regarded as being in a way to be diminished.
As of Thus a man who had laid it thus for his own to
down in his own mind for his own observation a rule that he will on
every opportunity do mischief in a certain way or in every
imaginable way shape do mischief to every man whose opinion
differs from his in this or that particular subject, will in
so far be acknowledged by every person who does not join
with him in the observance of that same rule
be acknowledged as one to whom the appellation of a man
of bad principles may with with truth and propriety be
applied.
