Not so where justice is the word. An act which is understood
and admitted to be contrary to the dictates of justice –
an act belonging to of the number of the class of those which are understood and
admitted to be stand forbidden by the dictates of justice, may in
many most if not all cases be termed stiled an act of injustice.

But when an act is understood to belong to the class
of acts of injustice – or in the more abbreviated but less correct
phrase manner of speaking, an injustice it is commonly understood as
being not merely allowable, but matter of honour glory and wa
of duty, to reprobate it. But to reprobate an a species of act is
to reprobate all those who practise it, and to a certain degree
those who approve of it or one express their approbation of it.

Hence it is that the word justice takes or at least
seeks to take from the adversary that liberty – that liberty
of discussion and action which the use of the word utility leaves
understood.
