No room to speak of
distinctn. between effective
benevolence &
self-regarding prudence.
J.B's private Deontology,
what.
Here, if there were room, might be the place to speak
of the distictn between virtue in that shape in which
it is by persons other than the agent himself that the
benefit of it is considered as being reaped and virtue
in that shape in whh. it is by the agent himself
and him alone that it is considered as being reaped:
in a word between effective benevolence which may be
the name of the modification of virtue in the one
case and self-regarding prudence in the other case.
In some papers of his on which he has occasionally been
at work in his way for years making occasional
additions at the moment of their presenting themselves,
and on the occasion of each without recurring
to former ones, the field of private morality, or, as
it in his mind, it answers to the name of Private Deontology,
these are the two compartments into whh. the
whole of that field is partitioned out: effective benevolence
being further divided or say subdivided
into positive & negative : positive consisting in the doing
good, negative in the abstaining from the doing
evil; and self-regarding prudence into purely self-regarding,
& extra-regarding : by the purely self-re.
branch no feelings other than those of the agent himself
entering being taken for objects of regard: by the extra-regarding
branch the feelings of other persons, on account
& in consideratn. of the influence whh. those same feelings
may have on those actions of the persons in question
by whh. his own feelings - his own happiness may be
affected. But on the present occasion the bare
mention of these distinctns. with the all-comprehensive
system of whh. they present the outline will if not
superabundant, be at the least pronounced sufficient.
