7.

C
Of Unlawful Defamation.

7. No practices or qualities are deservedly disreputable
but such of which the tendency is in some way or other
prejudicial

Note.

those people, such practices are doubtless detrimental as well
as here yet they seem not to be understood to be so; accordingly,
whether on that account, or by reason that the tendency
to produce happiness or unhappiness in the community
is not there looked upon in the standard of its
merit or immorality, they are not in general looked upon
as immoral. Among the Aborigines of Indostan it is
looked upon as immoral for a man of a certain rank to
eat with or tough the person of a man of another particular
rank; because owing to some mistaken conceit
men have come to fancy it not right that such a thing
should be done: which is owing to their not conforming
themselves to in respect of the approbation or disapprobation passed
upon an action to the decisions of that standard.
