1822 June 30
Constitut. Code

One thing of which a man is sure that at the non- the non-injecting
application is certain matter of certainty is soon stated: this is the principle axiom
by which the greatest happiness of the greatest number is
stated as the only justifiable end of government. But That
no such position could by any principle be placed before the royal
pupil in the character of a true one is sufficiently evident,
for in this position is included among other the content
of a Constitutional Code are is included his security that at
such office as that which he is declared to fill is in ought
to have place in any community, and that the only good
act which he who is invested with it capable of being done by him any one who is in it is to suppress it
to strike it out of the official establishment, is to abolish
this g system of government of which it forms a part to
substitute a representative democracy to the whole of the gov
system of government of which it forms a part the such advice with the given. Various are
the inducements it need scarce be observed, any one of which

The only right and proper end of government is

axiom substituted to the other incommodious one, the two latter
inconveniences are avoided, and while to the interests of the community at large
no injury damage is done, since to the opposite forasmuch as by any advice
to the opposite effect so many words are minutes employed
in giving expression to it would be thrown away.
