CLASSIFICATION. Obstacles to a good one, peculiar to Law.

Classification is but one means towards the accomplishment
of the end of the Science

Nothing prevented the end of Physic from
being recognized — It always has been recognized

Now in the Law the case has always been
that even under the best of times dispensation+ + that men have
hitherto experienced
by mankind that the
necessity of the times || || a superior force having made many
articles receivable that have had no connection
with that end; sometimes even the principal main
current part of the System taking an adverse course,
it became a task as unsafe as it would
have been vain to have recognized & holden up for observation
that end by which those articles would
have [manifestly] stood condemned reprobated.

Those who have had
the keys of science in their
keeping, follows
of those who
over .....d it
partakers of the
same interests, or
dupes to the same
prejudices

Thus the rulers must have their religion
forced upon the people, not for any temporal political
utility it brought with it, for then would
it have been fashioned throughout # # wrought up in
every part of it to the standard
of utility, but because they supposed it to
be true which being the case whether useful
or not useful, was no matter it was at all events to be adopted

useful or not useful
was what they cared
not about

So in as to the form of Government the Constitution — they who
established Monarchy or Aristocracy never
set themselves to enquire whether Monarchy
or Aristocracy was the best government for
the people — Monarchy or Aristocracy was
at all events to be upholden — The Laws that
were to be made even to be no others than such as were calculated
to uphold it. That end, which if it
publicly & freely constantly had been recognized for that to which these as Laws relative
well as all other Laws to this title as well
as to every other, were to be fashioned, might
if freely consulted, have dictated Laws of a very
different nature — The business was therefore
to keep it as much as possible out of view
To set up other obscure models, pretended [+] [+ by the persons
concerned occasionally
when hard pressed upon occasion
to be taken upon from this, but [endeavoured placed as
much as possible [to be represented as] and expedient in one
point of view

A Classification in
which the end thus shines
through every part article
of it, will as it
were disgorge, at
least will not without occasion
apparent manifest
receive into it, a
spurious credence.
