Law Civil & Penal
(10) (6) Codes General & Particular

As in speaking of the General Code we have seen, in
the composition of that instrument of government, its civil or say its expositive,
and its penal or say imperative mandative prohibitive, or
in one word imperative, as also its remedy-preventing and
in particular its punishment-prosecuting matter, so may
we in the composition of many several if not of most of the Par
abovementioned Particular Codes. if constructed on the plan best adapted to the purpose. Compared with the extra-domestic
Codes the domestic are, however, those in which
it is the expositive matter will naturally be found in the
greatest quantity. In the Code of Husband and Wife for
Father and Child for example will come the general piece
granted to the Father partly on his own account, partly on the childs account
and after it the numerous specific obligations with which, on
the childs account that power is requires to be, are
to a certain degree commonly is loaded: which b in the check
by each of these same obligations a correspondent right is inferred.
So in the Code of Husband and Wife powers of a
more and some of them of a more delicate nature
with the obligations and correspondent rights
as just mentioned. For in a word in all the cases of the several domestic
relations reciprocity has place: the several and the
better being in regulated proportions mixt.

Not so in the case of the extra domestic relations
when exemplified. In these, it the is all burthen; no .
For we In obedience to a necessity which the burthen of what
must fall somewhere, all are loaded with burthens with obligations no
right benefits no right beconferred in return: no right
whatever, unless it to have and thence in having for its object
the preventing the magnitude of the burthen imposed on the individual
greater than is necessary for the placing in the hands of
government the sort of benefit intended: the receipt of the
money for the extraction of which the tax has been imposed.
