Indirect Legislation § 5

sanction, to punish the effusions of benevolence
as far as it is safe to punish them; and to reward
them in as far as it can be afforded the state can afford to reward
them belongs to the province comes within the task of direct legislation:
I speak with regard to the human species; the
principal and too generally the only object of
the legislator's care. To retard restraining man
from tormenting the inferior part of the animal
creation, is an act a measure of indirect legislation that
might be adopted in the same view: a direct
law against cruelty of to animals is a would be an indirect
law against cruelty towards man. (a)
See B. 1. tit.
[Cruelty to animals]

Bias is more
by insinuation


NOTE

Service done in this
way by Hogarth.

pencil against the cruelty of man to man, dedicated
his first lesson to the service of the brute creation.
