1. A part, and In a family Of the time of the father of a family, a
part, and that of the time of the father or other master a very small one suffices for every purpose all occasions of
judicature for the administration of domestic justice. In a
political state that function requires the whole time not of one
person only, but even in the smallest state, of a considerable
number of persons called Judges, with other persons acting together with others, to act
under their orders.
To ensure secure forthcomingness on the part of the subordinate
members of the community, as well in the character of witnesses as
of parties – to secure actual justiciability on their part in the character
of suitors, is no less necessary to the judicature of a family
than to the judicature of the most extensive empire. But in
the family those special powers are virtually inseparably included under
that general mass of power which in that limited field of action
is planted by the hand of nature. But It is where the field is
thus enlarged, distinct powers of this nature necessarily spring up, distinct powers reposed exercised
by different hands, and thence necessary to be distinguished
by different names.
Ther The securing in so far as it can be secured the negative
virtue of veracity – the absence of mendacity and temeri falshood as well through
temerity as through mendacity on the part of each person individual heard
in the character of a witness requires is another object for
the accomplishment of which is still provided for, in so far as it as effectually as by
any means be provided for, by the general fund of paternal or
power, with the need of any distinct appropriation. But in the great family
of the a state requires to make for this purpose a provision as adequate
to its purpose as in the former case requires the institution of an appropriate fund of
punishment, with powers for the application of it.
