1817 JB's Springs of Action.
In 1817 came out Mr. Bentham's little tract entitled "Springs
of Action," whh. is composed of a pretty extensive Table explained
& elucidated by Notes. In his "Introd. to Mors. & Legisn." he had
brought view the several Motives by which human action in
all its modifications is produced: these motives being accompanied
and explained by the several correspondent
pleasures & pains: a motive being nothing but the fear of
some pain, in the event of a certain mode of action
which accordingly the will is urged to avoid; or the hope
of a certain pleasure, which accordingly the will is
urged to put the individual in question in a condition
to experience. In this Table for the first time a third
list of Interests was added, to wit a list of Interests
was added to the two former lists: each motive had in the
first work been explained by its connexion with the
correspondent motive. By this means if the list of pains
& pleasures is complete so also is the list of motives: &
if the list of pains & pleass. in conjunction with the
list of motives is complete so also is the list of
interests: each of these words contributes to give precision
& fixity to the import of every other. To these indications
given of these three sorts of psychological entities if so
they may be termed, is added that of a fourth sort, namely
desires: between motives & desires the only difference being
that by the word motive preference is given made to some
correspondent mode of action so the production of whh.
it is represented as conducive: an indication whh. is
not given by the word desire.

Dyslogistic & Eulogistic
names exhibited by J.B.
In the construction of this Table an observation whh.
Mr. Bentham found occasion to make is that of a
sentiment of approbation or disapprobation, which in the
case of almost every sort of desire had become attached to
the name of it. Hence in most instances for each desire
a sentiment of approbation; another in which a sentiment of
disapprobation, was thus superadded; a third by which
no other idea was excited than that of the desire, clear
of both those opposite addituments. Having made observation of the
