INTRODUCTION.
INTRODUCT. A Law — what? Parts of a Law [1][1] Blacksts Sanction — Radical & Subserv
For an abstraction to be accurate, a man should have the merits from
lying before him while the abstraction operation is performing. Instead of that men
more take up with a hasty & incorrect picture of it in their minds
drawn from an recollection
A man sets about to explain a Law — he gives his definitions — Is it
just? Here is but one way to know — try it upon a Law, upon what
something to which men are agreed in giving the name of Law — be it upon
the 1st that offers, try it upon another, I be ready to try it upon
every one concerning which any suspicion can arise if it's having any being different
permitted in any respect from those told already in the particulars exprest in the
depiction.
A painter has a plant to draw what does he? draw it from the recollection
he has of it as he saw it growing in the garden? no he plucks it up,
brings it on with him & spreads it out before him under his eyes — Has he any
doubt to at any time concerning the exactness of
the copy in any part? he is in a condition
to verify satisfy himself in the mistake by recurring
to the Archetype.
Of the 1st the instance without the 2d the existence, of
is both conceivable & possible:
Of the 2d without the 1st the existence is neither possible
nor conceivable.
Not so the man of Law — Laws have been
in constant making for many thousand
years, and no one has been able to give any
tolerable account of what is a Law is to this hour
This may very well be — For it is one
The 2d one made have this & no other for their effect and purpose
rest to mediate to the execution of the former
they affair for a man to know a thing when he
sees it, & another to be able to give such an
account of it, that he who has never yet seen it,
when he comes to see it, shall be able to distinguish
it from every other thing.
|| though the logical proposition here compleated by
substituting the phrase expression descriptive of the object of the
action instead of the pronoun puts into his plan to represent him
Any thing may pass for true, like it comes
to be applied to use — any thing may pass for
true, when it is true so far as it has been applied
to use.
NOTE
It seems to be realized)
in the case where the of these Laws ) No so
of which which are such the execution ) v. infra
is may be left ( without being )
expressly committed, )
to the party in whose )
( favour [for whose benefit]
(they are made. If
(there be any Laws that
( are strictly examples of this, as is that
( whereby against Night-Robbers
( the punishment of death
( is denounced by the hands
( of the person robbed. |||
[if it may not rather be said that
though]
||| The effect of such a Law is no more than simply this —
It takes away the Sanction Punishment which otherwise
would attach upon an act of the kind permitted
It is a repeal pro tanto of the Law against
Manslaughter — against that offence under the
description of which the act in question if it
were not such permission would come.
( unless this specification
( of the person by whose
( hands in the case the punishment
( may be inflicted,
( is not rather itself a Law permission of the
( Adjective, of the most summary
( nature, uniting (for the purpose
( of giving certain & speedy execution
( to the Substantive Law to
( which it is subservient) in
( the same person the functions
( of all these several sorts of Ministers of Justice to mention
( no others, viz. of Prosecutor,
( Judge Jury and Executioner
