— Linnæus Q.

When so much ingenuity has been by industriousexpanded in giving a systematical arrangement to the diseases
of the Body Natural,
why may not the same course be taken to
advantage, with ?, the with which, with
reference to the objects, may be termed according
to the common Metaphor, the diseases
of the Body Politic, or, with reference to
the agents actors, the diseases of the mind?
And why has it not been taken?[+] & how
[+] is a question that
may be ready to
recur to many] is it that in this & in so many other
respects the Science Art of Legislation should have
stood been so much life indebted to its Professors
than the art of Healing?

It is because neither the Spirit of Civil Tyranny,
nor the Spirit of Dogmatic Theology which
which poisons every thing it touches, have
not ether separately or in alliance

Accordingly on the well trodden field of the Science The Tactic powers of the have bestowed themselves
