Of Justifications, Excuses and Aggravations
Appropriated powers are either domestic or public.
We come lastly to appropriated powers: powers which
are given to persons only of a particular description
only, over persons of a correspondent description.
These are conferred correspondent to the former either on persons consider'd as members
of a private family, for the sake of excluding enabling them to exclude the
evils and that might arise or procuring the benefits
that might may be produced within the circle of that
family, and in such case they may be stiled
domestic powers: or on persons consider'd as members
of the state at large, for the sake of excluding
the evils that might arise or procuring the benefits
that may be produced within the circle of the state
at large or some circle within it more extensive
than that of a private family: and in such case
they may be stiled public powers.
Domestic Powers a 5th ground of Justification. With regard then to domestic powers, a fifth
ground of justification in all cases in which it
is thought proper that such powers should be created,
and in favour of the respective several sorts of persons
in whose favour the several sorts of domestic powers
are thought fit to be created will be that of domestic
power.
