Review of Humphrey
§. J.B. & H's language as to Judge
§ Expectation principle
§. J.B. language in speaking of Judges
As to the unsound manner in which Mr Bentham has for such
a length of time been speaking of the Judges of the land and
the cause and reason of his doing so, it stands then
1
As a law a Judge
J.B. and H.: language
deficient
—
With Towards some of theminduced in any toward ac
has he any feeing more hostile, than any they have one of them when
towards the punishable malefactor when he is accordingly by his
sentence to the hands of the execution But to the purposes of an reform
effectual is improvement the sort of language he employs in speaking of them is not
less necessary than the language which employed by them in speaking
to the malefactor a supposed malefactor when the chance of forensic
now has delivered into their hands.
Continued into one proposition Mr Bentham
in relation to the authors of the Common Law may be then
expressed. The compleat inaptitude ofthe rule of action in its present
state has had all along for its efficient cause thetheir
interest of Judges.
By Mr Bentham the truth of this position has been
in a variety of reasons demonstratedin th from the nature of man
By Mr Humphreys form From particular facts From the
experience of the whole course of their proceedings as evidenced
by fact, by decision after decision in every page of Mr Humphrey's
work this same proportion stands demonstrated from experience
On the part of the class in question official order and professional
order taken together, nothing could be more groundless - nothing
more unjust than any such as that of resentment
in thetheir part. Page In every page after page the deplorable exhibition
is bands of the deplorable and disgraceful effects but no where
is any so much as the most distant intimation have we found
that these same disgraceful effects have had that same interest for
their cause
