Review.
Next after impeachment
Wrongdoing, in whatever shape it be, and whatever
be the occasion, imports and supposes the existence of a
standard of right — a standard of rectitude, from which
aberration is made. A To a determinate standard of this sort
allusion and reference howsoever must be
made, or what is said must will be unmeaning and unintelligible.
For this purpose the standard all along
alluded to, will be opinions of Mr Bentham. Why?
Because in no part of the field of law does he hold
up any opinion without subjecting to it or prefixing
to it reasons — determinate reasons all of them having for
their ultimate support his all-ruling principle — the
greatest happiness principle: because this is what Mr
Bentham, on every occasion does, and no other writer on the subject of law
on any occasion, does
[+] Were there any
such proposed standard of rectitude
more generally recognized
as such and adopted
that it is that on this occasion
we should have adopted. But
no such thing is there in
existence any where
For the purpose of making proof of the design
imputed to Mr Brougham, it has been necessary, according
to the accustomed as well as nor that an improper, usage
to allege on his part, consciousness of the maleficent
effects and tendency of the acts imputed to him.
Of this consciousness the proof is as follows. At the
time of the moving of this Bill, on Mr Broughams Table
lay amongst others the following works of Mr Broughams in which all one or more the
opinions in question with the reasons for their support will may
be found. These are 1. Reform. 2. Petition for Justice
3. Equity Disputation Court Proposal. 4. Equity Disputation Court 4. Constitutional Code Vols 1 with the <note>Contents of all three Volumes

form of a Table of Chapters

Bill. Nor will it be , either that in proof of his having
no knowledge of those that in his opinion they were not
worth knowing. For to many of these c has it
all along been known, nor by either party has any desire of secrecy in this particular
been manifested, this
