Article on Utilitarianism

Justice

28.
Conjugation of utility
— utilitarian — utilitariansism.

It is in some sort and upon rather infishment that the
only expression denomination by which an apposite and correct concept of
the idea is consequent one, from which as a
root the stock of conjugates requisite for the purposes of holding
discourse concerning on the subject of it can scarcely be made to spring: and this
as consequence it is to the word utility a denomination so
much less apposite that the f must be left to be proposed.
From utility we have utilitarian and utilitarianism:
Utilitarian for a class of person by whom the principle is embraced, and
recognized as the source of right and wrong: Utilitarianism,
for the system embraced the doctrine taught by those same persons
From the treatise or my denomination greatest happiness principle,
no word to these two purposes can be deduced.

29.
For expressing in a
word, happiness principle
endaimonology wd
do: if so custom must
be departed from in
not rendering it endemonology,
not.

For giving denomination to the branch of art and science of which this
principle is the foundation or say the root, the word endaimonly endaimonology
might serve, for the use of those to whose minds the signifation signification
of the those words, borrowed as they are from the Greek as are present: but
on the of the language the want of famliarcy familiarity seems to
present an obsta oppose to the employment of it an objection, which seems too
strong to be surmounted. scar scarcely surmounted. At any rate should it ever be employed
usage must in such sort be departed from (the scope that has place
in case where a word of Greek origin is transplanted into the
language, may other the bulk of which is derived from it, as
is necessary to the releasing the ai diphthong unchanged,
instead of changing it into the æ diphthong:: for
daumology dæmonoly would be apt to may be
present the idea of the a doctrine or art or science of which devils
were the subject, and in this way thus be apt to give umbrage to pious wise
minds.
