Indirect Legislation
Satisfying
Under all this latitude facility , one would expect
to find divorces happening every day without
number. Experience however testifies the reverse.
In Scotland they are scarce so frequent as in
England. [I do not find them to be common either
in Denmark or in Sweden: no nor even in the
dominions of the King of Prussia] Qu. of Saxony Wirtemberg
Hanover Hesse Holland
[The reasons
which would weigh in some places prevail with the legislator government not to
permitt them [are precisely those which] dispose in other places
prevail with the parties not to apply for them] In most instances The reasons
which would prevent prevail with the government from permitting
them where they are forbidden, prevail with the parties [from applying]
not to apply for them when they are permitted. Many who would have
been deterred or tormented
by the restraint take no
advantage of the liberty.
Q It is in
this case perhaps where as in most others where
the government takes upon it to [decide what
is most for the] understand the interests concerns of individuals
better than they do themselves, the restraint coercion
it has either a bad effect
or none at all.
either does miscief or does nothing]
Many who would be have been deterred or tormented by
the restraint take no advantage of the liberty.
In [the instances] these cases in which all cases Where the liberty
if allow'd granted would not have been made use
of, the law by denying it does nothing: and in all other cases
I can't help suspecting it does worse.
