1825. May 15.

1.

Imitation principle
correspondent proportions —
1. Enunciation of a certain
practice.
2. Approbation of that
practice.

2.

By proposition enunciative
of the practice
indication given of
operations: why similar
operations performed
in similar cases
to that of a proposed
operation.

3.

Proposition approbative
expresses that
such operations so performed
is right.

4.

The principle material,
but highly maleficent.

5.

Causes of its being natural
1. It requires the minimum
of thought and
discernment.
2. So, of reflection and
labour.
3. It will serve to support
any act howsoever
maleficent.
4. For employing it, the
less intelligence, the
better qualification.

6.

Causes of its maleficence.
1. It supplants greatest
happiness principal.
2. From its applicability
to both good and
evil, it favours evil.

6 contind.

3. Requiring minimum
of aptitude, it
keeps in place persons
devoid of aptitude.
4. Connected with the
wisdom of ages trumpeting
fallacy.
5. Tendency to propagate
mental imbecility.
6. Pertinacity, a proof
of inaptitude.
7. Connection with practice
v. theory fallacy.

7.

In judicative originally
the imitative principle
the only one employed.

8.

But when expressions
found for the rule of
action, all pretence
for the use of the imitation
principle done
away.

9.

To every end corresponds
a principle,
but not to every principle
an end — the imitation
principle an
exception.

10.

The principle applied
1. By judge
2. By legislators.

11.

As to judge made laws,
the principle originally
a great blessing,
new as great a cause.

12.

Before the greatest
happiness principle
was announced, the
initiation principle
was at once a guide
and bridge to the judge.

13.

Used by uncorrupted
judges, it is of use as
saving trouble.

14.

That is has served
as a bridle is shown
by experience.

15.

To individuals at
large, it originally
served as a direction
past.

16.

But since ten, it
has brought into existence
the class of
opinionist lawyers.

17.

As to legislative
authority, their proceedings
never could
be so regardless of
greatest happiness
principle.
