Article on Utilitarianism
§. 1.
Institution by JB of the
name of greatest happiness
principle to
that of principle
of utility.
It was not till within these few years, in consequence of the still that habit of

that in the same phrase the greatest happiness of the greatest number
tastes a source of misconception. [The discourse made certain
was but in communication if is to act such persons whose situations as
happens to be within the field of his intercourse disc. oral and written together.]
But Unhappily errors once made are the more
work of art and science more especially, errors once fallen
into are not so easily corrected as the comm perception
of them is communicated]
