Law versus Arbitrary Power
or
A Hatchet for Dr. Paleys Net.
M. Philanthropist Editor
The following Last sketch sheets if so it be that in
your opinion your laudable designs may can in
any way be served by them are readily at
your Service
Taking up I forget with what view about
a couple of years ago one of Dr. Paleys Books
his principles of Moral and Political Philosophy
when from me the observations which are
now before you, and which run from the pen
as fast as the ink would flow from it. The
test being without method, the comment
being of that sort which we call a prophet
perpetual one became necessarily so too. The
importance of the subject might well warrant
a treatise furnished with all the advantages
which it is in the power of method to
bestow. But the nature of your work
cooperating with the indulgence of the
Editor admits of hasty sketches and
every thing cannot be done at once. The
