self regarding
interest and
despotism and caprice on the
part of the
legislator and
thereby as a preventive
impediment
to his
abrogating the
enactment or
making in it any
such alleged amendment
as will not be
productive of
net or preponderant
benefit To all
to the community
taken in the
aggregate.

Exemplifications

good and evil
in scale.

the author (as in
the case with Mr
Bentham) is not unclothed
with appropriate
power to
shew to the
legislator how
to carry the design
of the arrangement
in question as
expressed by the
enactive matter
into effect in
the circumstances
in which the
community in question is
placed.

a legislator to
convey to future
legislators such
information or
suggestions as

to the continuance & effectiveness
of the design in

one of the
three modes of

of an enactive
article.

considered in
this character
and employed
as such which
may help to
convey and
give clearness
correctness or

comprehensiveness

Nor will he look
upon himself as
bound to confine
himself to such
expositive matter
as comes strictly
with the more
simple description description above here given in the first instance.
