Review of Humphreys

2 Agenda at length
§ Corrigenda
§ Involvedness of the Code itself on Humphreys
(1) (2 2. Code itself
Lengthiness — diminution of

Involvedness of the
Code itself —
its amount deducible
from the specimen

The agreement of It. with B being thus and
incapable of being we ensure Mr H no longer to declare the transfer
which in point of extending of foundation
is desire from or
continuously reform to Mr B's principles.

☞ From the contrasted confounded exemplifications

This same comparative degree of convolution or say involvedness, of which
the the three exemplifications have just been given may be seen exhibited
throughout the whole texture of Mr Humphreys Code. We
have already brought to view as a general rule — that of the maximum
of distinctiveness, and thence of apprehensibility be
amended and determined on, [the maximum of] brevity consciousness
must to a certain degree sacrificed to it. Of the sacrifice
necessary what would be the amount we can not antecedently
to trial take upon us to determine. But for the exemplification
already given, it may be anticipated with a say degree
of exactness sufficient for and we will venture to say
that the addition would not amount be so much as the d same
as the double it.

On this occasion a necessary distinction is — that
between the quantity of addition to the letter press added and the quantity
of the addition to the paper employed. The addition to the quantity
of paper employed operates applies to the expence and that
only: while and it is strange if by the addition made to the
apprehensibility of the whole, it does not pay for the expence

Of the involvedness of the might in a grand
degree assisted by reference to and imitation of Bonaparte's
Codes: or in short the Statute law of almost any
country except our own. But only to in Mr Benthams
are will any formulæ and correspondent rules for the avoidance of imperfection in this shape
to be found.
