Polit. Deontology

Object 1. It excludes pleasure
Object 2. It includes pleasures.
Object 3. Of all it imposes restraints on

§. Disadvantage attached to the use of the appellative principle
of utility considered as giving denomination to the standard of
right and wrong in merits and politics

The word Utility is derived from the word useful: as that is the word
useful is derived from the word use.

That which on this occasion is regarded is a locution word
by in which shall in a lesser compass be conveyed the import conveyed by the
words subserviency to the means of the source of pleasure,
or to the denomination of the source of pain, or both.

In so far as the quality thus denominated belongs
to it, in so far as the act in question be it what it
may conformable to the principle of all comprehensive
utility.

In this sense it is not uncommonly employed used and
received accepted: in this sense it is accepted, as often as any determinate
import is annexed to it.

But unhappily in this sense the acceptance given
to it is far from being universal or even where it actually
has place, in determinate, immediate instantaneous
