Fallacies

B
Ch. 4. Mischief

or 2 4

The fallacy given
if there be any particular
bad measure which
that fallacy has a
particular tendency
to provoke or support,
in that tendency
consists its specific
mischief.

See p. 1.

As to the specific mischief to which it is the tendency of a fallacy to
give birth, if there be were in so far as any particular bad measure course
whether a it be a measure of adoption the positive case or a measure of rejection
which it can be found to which it is the particular
tendency of the fallacy in question to give promote birth
it is of in the promotion of such actual or probable particular measure that
the specific mischief or mischievousness of the that fallacy consists.

But of
the greater part of
the aggregate mass
of political fallacies
by far the greater
part, viz. the fallacies
of the Ins are so
that of
that whole class of
fallacies the
g the
to promote or
a correspondent
and prodigiously
extensive mass
of bad measures:
viz. all such as
except in the continuance
given
to the sacrifice made
of the public to the
private interest of the
ruling and other
influential classes

But in general it will be seen on looking over
the lists of the fallacies of the Outs, Ins, it will be seen that in
general they have agree all of them one common tendency
which tendency is viz. the serving to prevent or obstruct retard
the adoption of such measures as would be necessary
to put an end to the sacrifice, at present made of the general public interest
of the whole community to the comparatively
private and particular interests of certain of the ruling and
influential classes. So far then In general therefore
thus except be the extent of this branch of the mischief
notwithstanding the comparatively restrictive
impost of the epithet adjunct specific employed assumed
in the denomination for the purpose of giving name, of it.
