Use made by government
misrulers of
the substitution of the
partial to the general
end
In this substitution of a comparatively narrow end
only partially-subordinate and conducive end to the
only legitimate and all-comprehensive one may be seen
an instrument which is but too extensively & frequently
made use of for the purpose of engaging men
in the givingto give adherence and support to maleficent
principles and arrangements on the field of government.

Corruptive oaths in
support of original
contract
By fear or hope for example by corruption in
a word in any shape an influencing individual or
assembly are led to make declaration of a
promise with or without the sanction
such as it is of an oath to maintain at all
times such or such aan invariable line of conduct, describing
it. The once so famous and original influential supposed promise-
the original compact-would had it been real
one species of engagement a reciprocal one being supposed
to have been entered into by two contracting
parties : the first-mentioned declaration is another
species of engagement, namely a single-seated one:
and as it may happen to any such double-seated
engagement to have for its object or practical end
in view the production of crime evil or human suffering in any
shape or quantity so may it happen to this double-seated
one.
Go on to speak of Locke's doctrine
about uneasiness.
J.B. makes no
scruple of declaring
that such engagements
are not binding
any more than if
entered into by a man
in a state of drunkenness.
