in respect of the manner in which they affect the person whom they regard stand upon a footing which is in great measure opposite to that on which
those of the preceding division appear to stand. Offences against a Neighbourhood,
we observed, could scarcely affect men in any other way than in point of
person or of property : in point of reputation or condition men could hardly
