Among the meritorious attributes of the
greatest happiness principle, two, which are too material
to be forgotten, are the all-comprehensiveness and
the consistency, meaning exemption from the danger
of inconsistency, of which it may be said to be in so
eminent a degree susceptible, if it may not with more
propriety be said to be actually in possession, to the securing
of which valuable properties to the details of any
work carried on under it's direction, it affords such
important assistance. It takes alike under it's charge
and gives character and direction to the details of Morals
and Politics, including under Politics Government
and Legislation, and International Law : each of them
considered as it is, for the hope of seeing it rendered
what it ought to be. Morals is the doctrine of what ought
to be done by man when acting on the small - the
individual scale : Politics the doctrine of what ought
to be done by him, when acting on an enlarged, a national,
or international scale.
