Law Amendment or Penal Code or Duelling extinguishable
Ratiocinative
The distinction made of those several subspecies has
for its use and purpose the causing a mode of criminality
productive of the evil of the second order in less magnitude to
be employed by the malefactor in preference to a mode productive
of an the evil of that same stage second order in greater magnitude.
Suppose for example two classes in bands of robbers:
the one is in the habit of sparing life and except when the destruction
of it is decreed necessary to the self-preservation or accomplishment of the criminal predatory
purpose: the other of constantly destroying life in the first
instance: both the danger and the abuse will – it is obvious
be much greater in the latter case than in the former other.
