Review of Humphreys

§.1. Agenda
(1

1.
Improvements employed
by J.B. and recommended
to H. in
for of precepts.
1. Some are here first
given:
2. Others are references
to already proposed ones.
A second edition will
afford H. an opportunity
of employing any
such as he approves.

2.
Matter I 1.
2. Agenda as to
2. Matter.
1. Articles Employed not enactive
designate distinguish respectively,
at top, by the appellatives,
Expositive, Ratiocinative,
and Instructional,
one or more.
Instructional are as to
Legislature and Legislative + ☞ + Insert Legislative
Draughtsman
Draughtsmen
For examples of the
mode of application,
see Official Aptitude
maximized &c.

In H, the Enactive
is are part is so denominated
in the "Preliminary
"Enactment". It is
printed in Italics:
the others, undistinguishedly,
in Romans.

2.
Form I.1
2. Form. The enactive
distinguish rather by
size than form of the
type. Italic, an unbroken
mass strains
the eye: in England disused;
except in small
masses, for distinction.

2 contind.
Ratiocinative and Instructional
might be
in Notes: at any rate
in a smaller type.
So, the Expositive: that
with the rest it might
be separable from the
Enactive, to avoid burthening
the eye and
pocket of those already
possessed of the import
of the expounded words.

3.
Form II.1
3. Denominate, enumerate,
and in logical
order tabulate, H's principles,
all of them placed in subordination
to the greatest
happiness principle.

4.
Matter I.2 I Employed
4. Principle peculiarly
appropriate, the disappointment-
preventing:
looked to, accordingly, by
all, though without characteristic
denominations;
by none so much
as by H.

5.
Matter I.3
5. Examples of others
principles employable
1. Complication minimizing.
2. Litigation minimizing.
By the continually looked
to: but by diversity of expression,
identity of
import is negatived
or doubtfulized. Beneficial
effects of this identity
of denomination.

6.
Matter I.4
6.3. Delay-minimizing
1. As to the transfer. the time occupied in the
transferential operation.
2. As to eventual litigation.
the time eventually
occupied in litigation.

7.
Matter 1.5
7.4. Expence minimizing
These are two of the collateral
ends of Judicature —
vexation the 3d.
Direct, avoidance of
misdecision and non
decision-producing
as long as it lasts, the
evils of misdecision
particularly to on Pursuer's
side, when in the
right, as he generally
is. Does it not Lord
Eldon?

For reasons (which
are but principles in
detail — narrow principle)
he employs motives;
from the French motifs.
Exhaustively All comprehensively bifurcate
analysis would shew
that the number of principles
requisite is not
great. ☞ Try it.

8.
Form II..2 Employed
8. To the divisional
denominations in Common
use, substitute
the numerical only.

9.
Form II.3.
For the result of the
last divisional operation
employ the word
articles, as being in
common use for this
purpose.

10.
Form II.4
10. But where lists require
to be given in,
it gives each item a
numerical denomination,
and refer to them
by the denomination of
such articles.

11.
Form II.5 Employed
11. Indicate by a numerical
figure, the number
of divisional operations
by which the result
in question: the figure
in a broad type, each
struck through by a
thin §. for Section.

☞ Insert first all that
belongs to Matters, purposely
off till after the
instance of what belongs
to the head of Matter
Articles 2. and 3.
