Note that if they in the situation of rules the truth of this
position held good in no more than a bare majority of the
whole number of instances, it would suffice for every practical
purpose un in the character of a ground for practice: in the character
of a coodination by which the location of the several
portions in the aggregate mass of political power should ought to be
determined: for in the way of induction, it is only by in the greater
and not in these lesser numbers of instances that the general
evidence can normally be determined: in a word, mathematically
speaking the probability of a future contingent event,
is in the direct ratio of the number of past instances in which
an event of the sort has happened to the number of those
in which it has not happened - it is in this direct ratio
and not in the inverse
