II. Now as to the Bills: passed of course presently<add> in due season into Acts: passed
of course as under matchless Constitution any Bill coming from Government
such is the word of late years (and not without charge)
substituted to Administration any thing would have been — any
thing whatsoever. Witness the power of — the power
given to Judges — the power of taxing suitors — that is to say all
members of the community in the event of their being under suits
and putting the taxing them without stint and putting the money
into their own pocket.

Now then let me see what has been done by Mr
Peel and those same Bills in hand by Mr Peel.

J.B.'s proposals
Necessity of notoriety
of laws — without
that uselessness of
punishment
But as we can fully understand the nature
of what has been done by Mr Peel, it necessity requires is altogether
necessary that we should see what had been proposed by
Mr Bentham. Acts in proposition as they are it is known (and become)
laws a law be of any use: only in proposition as they exist
can they be known. At present the objects to which under the
name of laws obedience is called for by you, have not so
much as existence. [Punishment and] means of punishment
that existence — and those you employ in abuse
in punishing men for nov disobedience to laws which to which
have no existence the attention of existence and to which accordingly obedience is
impossible. One of these days when the eye of Father
is fully open. of a lunatic asylum
will be spoken of as the only places in which any such
notion as that of punishing for non performance of impossibility
could have originated: sole head on which it could have
originated, that of a would be tyrant: a would be Don Ferdinand
or Don Miguel and mad
