NOTORIETY. Difft PERSONS concerned.
The Persons to whom it is requisite that Laws be notified, may be divided into
2 classes — 1. Those to whom they are addressed,the command or prohibition on whom the obligation is imposed, & 2. those in whose
favor they are made for whom it is imposed
In the General Code, these classes are united, [each person being reciprocally
obliger & obligee]
In the case therefore the class of persons to whose profit the Law is made divides itself into 2. The Home-manufacturer profiting individually by the observation of it, & the Public by the execution.
Tis in the particular Code that the distinction manifests itself: Thus the Importer dealers
of in foreign Goods prohibited simply or partially by a heavy tax is the of the first. The
Manufacturer of the Rival domestic Article, of the second. King's officers (in trust for the nation)in virtue of the tax to be received by them, are also of the second. It is useful
therefore that both these classes persons of the 2ndof these classes will be apprised of the Law, that they may see what
the Law has done in their favor,& be instructed at such opportunities as arise how to perceive
it's intentions: but it is unclear that those of the 3rd 1st should - because those of the 2d by their unacquaintance
with it only suffersuffer only what may be called a negative loss in improving an opportunity of having a privilege granted to him to his emolument gain:
The other Those of the first suffer a positive, & sudden, & often very severe loss one.
