1829. June 3. Article on Utilitarianism
On his entrance into the moral in
cluding the political branch of art & science, he found
it in much the same condition as that in which
Lord Bacon found the physical. The matter of what
was called the science was composed of a more or less
assemblage of words:and the instruction afforded,
such as it was, consisted principally, if not exclusively,
in conveying intimations of the relation borne by the
import of one of those words to the import of another.
Fiat experimentum was the aphorism of Lord Bacon : and by this one
precept direction, that philosopher was regarded and with
truth as having done more towards the advance
ment of that branch of art & science than had
been done by all that had gone before him. Fiat ob
servatio
was the aphorism of Mr. Bentham : for
observatio not experimentum was the appropriate
word here
