sinister interests prejudices and weaknesses, for his own benefit
and accommodation, together with that of any such individuals
connected with him in the way of self-regarding
interest of sympathy, as, on this occasion, it may please him

any apparently safe shape, may, to the disposition, add the
means, of making adequate demonstration of their gratitude.

question, besides its being an all-comprehensive one, being by
the supposition to be furnished with the of accompaniment
thus denominated, not only the propriety but but the possibility of
its being that such an accompaniment to it should be executed in a case such as that in question, is, by
the very supposition, excluded. It being by the very motive of
man rendered impossible that, in the situation, the greatest
happiness of the greatest number shall be taken for the object of pursuit or any other object than
the greatest apparent happiness of the ruling one, — an object,
with the pursuit of which the pursuit of the happiness of the greatest number
is, in the most important parts of the Code, incompatible, —
any attempt to interweave, as above, with the obligatory part
of the Code, an accompaniment of this sort, could not, supposing
the workman known, and known to be in subjection
to his employer, promise itself any more acceptable effect,
than that of exposing the workman Masteras well as per employer to ridicule.
