Rules

1.
Order in Part I analytic;
in Part II synthetic.

2.
Object, avoidance of repetition.

3.
In Offences collectively
considered – In the first
7 Chapters matter merely
Instructional, ratiocinative,
and expositive.

4.
In the ten other chapters
the matter has moreover
an Enactive effect.

5.
Accordingly these ten
last chapters to be
examined with reference
to every particular
sort of Offence
the subject of enactment
in Part II.

6.
General matter in this
case before the particular
reason to
save the need of
repetition.

7.
Offences severally considered
order as to what
is general and what is
particular.

8.
So in Public Offences genera
more extensive
than in private Offences.
So in public more
extensive than in semi-public.

9.
Extensive in respect
of the magnitude of the
evil producible.

10.
Without understanding
the evil effects produced
by Private Offences
you cannot understand
that produced by semi-public
nor yet that
produced by Public
Offences.

11.
If Public Offences had
been first brought to view
no sufficient ground
for application of Remedies
would have been made
apparent.

12.
Offences productive of
war only marked out
for punishment as tending
to produce Offences of the
private class – homicide.

13.
This is the practical use
of the order adopted.

14.
This a guide and a check
to the legislator – a source
of security and satisfaction
to the subject.

15.
Thus the legislator prevented
from converting all
acts of delinquency into
criminal offences.

16.
He himself prevented
from the exercise of
acts productive of
human misery.

17.
Buonaparte by causing
men to be put to death
not singly but by scores &
hundreds of thousands
thought he had committed
no crime.

18.
By crime he meant an
act to which disapprobation
is usually attached.

19.
Unfortunately public
offences of this kind generally
meet with approbation
not disapprobation
although evil
produced upon the most
extensive scale.

20.
Prevention of Offences
affecting individuals the
end in view – Prevention
of public offences the
means.
