1821. April 9. First Lines Financial Law

S. Financial law — Law belonging to the Department of Finance
— Revenue Law.

Financial law has, for its elementary part, portions detached
from the several other branches of law.

From the Civil branch of law By the Contributions which
it opposed, correspondence burthens to that amount are distributed among the
several contributors: contemplated considered in this point of view, the
matter of the law of finance belongs to the distributive called
the civil branch of law.

Penalties are attached to the conduct of all such
persons whose endeavours are in any way applied in weakening
the efficiency of these impositions: contemplated in
this point of view, the matter of the law of finance belongs
to the penal branch of law.

Thus much as to receipt: after receipt, or in
contemplation of receipt comes expenditure.

In whatsoever shape money or money's worth
passes out of the hands of those at whose command
it is, if it be not disposed of in absolute waste, it operates
in the character of matter of reward: contemplated
in this point of view, the matter of financial
law belongs to the remuneratory branch of law.
