Notoriety Scheme of Division distribution for the purposes of ...
The Laws whose principle of unity union is a certain
subject matter, + + is a certain end as is the — seen in the Militia order may be stiled the Aggregate
Laws; in contradistinction to the others whose
principle of unity is a certain denomination
of person; which latter may be stiled the Personal
Laws — The Personal Laws will consist of
one part Sections some part of one at least, commonly of
many Aggregate Laws, analyzed resolved for this
purpose into a number of sections correspondent
to the number of personal persons of different description
conversant upon them the <add>this subject</add> matter of such aggregate
Law, the sections so resolved, recompounded into a new whole: whose
principle of unity is, person.
Hence in each kind we get obtain a new division
antecedent to the ultimate which at present is
the only one & that not authentic, viz: into what are

-ject matter as falls under the lower regulation,
will in that case form the a whole Personal
Law: if he is conversant with many, as is
more commonly the case, his Law must wait for
it's completion till the publication of the last
Aggregate Law of those containing any thing respecting that person that shall be compiled.
Each Aggregate therefore, however subject to subsequent
alteration as it is the nature of every
Law to be) is at the time it's very first appearance
perfect certain & compleat. It will be furnished with its
Sections all at once . . Most Personal Laws..
... they will be furnished with their Sections
piecemeal.
The Legislator may preface the one at the very
first with this comfortable assurance that it is not
only the Law but the whole Law: He can surely
do so by the other

now called Sections: these Sections have nothing to fix
contents either absolutely or relatively
to each other: that which caused it if
50 Sections might as well have been in a hundred
or as well in only 5: without its being in any
one: any one's having
forever to quizz urge any more precise charge to urge against
it in the two cases, those that he thought in the
first there were too many, in the latter last too few
Our Sections have the l same principle of unity union
to marshal their interests for the parts of each & of division from each other as
the whole Laws themselves: that principle being
person in such Laws whose principle of unity
is subject matter; & subject matter,
in such whose where it is principle of unity is person.
The first Aggregate that is composed, furnishes
with Sections [to each a Section] many Personal
Laws; any of which Sections, if the person in question
chances to be conversant but with one such inf-

That Code whose bond of unity is Person, may
be distributed into as many Sections Chapters
as it extends through Codes whose bond of
unity is identity of subject-matter —
Thus in the Husbandman's Law one Chapter
would be consist of those regulations which concern +
+ affect him in the Code relative to Highways.
By this means each of the divisions as well
as the entire Professional code would be
provided with a natural denomination —
Husbandmans Law — Chapter of Highways

How much more instructive commodious and satisfactory
is this than 7 Gr 3.c. 40 — §29.
