Review of Humphreys.

§. Fundamental principles
(4) (4

Precluded by subjects
it belongs not to this
but the penal code

In so far as it is the result of the agency of persons
acting in the character of subjects it belongs not to
this Code: the branch of law to which it belongs is the the civil and the
penal.

Produced by rulers
it is the result of
want of appropriate aptitude
either moral or
intellectual

It is in so far as it is the result of agency
of persons acting in the character of rulers that it belongs to the
present code

Of rulers as such the agency may be productive
of insecurity in respect of unmovable property either through
a deficiency in respect of appropriate moral aptitude, or through
a deficiency in respect of appropriate intellectual aptitude.

In so far as/Liable to be Produced by want of
appropriate aptitude in all shape in
rulers the existence of
it is the business of
constitutional law

In so far as the insecurity is produced by a deficiency
in mor respect of mo appropriate moral aptitude
on the part of rulers, the arrangements adapted to the prevention exclusion
of it belong to the constitutional branch of law. It is produced
by destruction or deterioration of the value or of the subject matter, or by transfer
of it to other hands in such sort that by the transfer the aggregate
of the happiness derivable from it is diminished.

In so far as produced
by rulers it is produced

The arrangements by
which diminution of happiness
is produced are either
those which belong to substantive
or those which belong to constitutional
law and arise
from the distributive mode of
the the unhappiness producing pain which springs out
of the nature of wealth distributed

So far as depend upon
the distribution of the wealth
when equality out of the [ ]
the question whatever unhappiness is produced is produced by violation of the disappointment preventing principle with these his words.

In so far as it is produced by deficiency in respect
of appropriate intellectual aptitude on the part of rulers
it is produced by the want of such these arrangements by which
on the occasion of all p the passing of an immovable out
of the hands of a proprietor the pain bound to
proceeding from occasioned by disappointment say the pain of disappointment
is produced. This design is, as it out to be, to minimize
the number of the instances in which this pain has place: but
for want of discerning and thence for want of employing the arrangements

best adapted to this
design they fail more
or less in their endeavours
for the accomplishment of it.
