All these fictitious entities not being kept in subordination
to the principle of utility are at war

Under the head of Humanity may be ranked
some of the most formidable powerful of all the prejudices that tend to
confuse and distract the judgment of the Statesman Legislator.

of utility I shall take a few passages from
a book performance very popular in the patch a modern book which is now seems to be as popular perhapsthe most popular
of any I can pitch upon and which perhaps
