Promulgation
Separation of Professions beneficial — So of Laws. (1 It is an observation frequent in the mouths
of Political Oeconomists, how much the object
of their science (I mean the several Mechanic Arts)
has gained by the separation of professions:
it may be applied observed with equal truth
little not less would the end of it be advanced [Science itself be benefitted]
by a correspondent separation of the regulations
it contains.+
+ after this, or before, the Fable of the Bundle of Faggots.
Give to each man what belongs to him [to learn,]
apart from what belongs not to him, but others.
The whole main secret of promulgation and of composition
as far as it regards takes that # # notoriety for its end for it's end consists
in furnishing each man with just so much of
the Law as concerns him, and nothing more
"Divide & impera," a lesson maxim not less apposite true of
to the objects of intellectual than of political
dominion, may serve us for our guide — If
we look for a more familiar illustration, the
[old apologue] fable book will supply us. instruct us
The old ingenious apologue invented to exculcate the
virtue resisting of union; + + to oppose counter resistance to disarm it expresses by it's converse the virtue of separation to give upon any subjects
over what a man would wish to gain the
mastery.
It is nothing more than what the fable book# would might have taught us # the force of them in union united that storehouse treasure of yet unexhausted wisdom — The twigs in the fable which by
their force in union, though when bound together typify the force of
union to stand against attack, denote by their
weakness when apart, the efficacy of separation
to overcome resistance.
A somewhat less obvious but not unimportant
rule is to proportion the [means] industry to expedients for
[circulate] communicate instruction to the
of the demand for it.
That just so much of the burthen may rest and no
more, may rest every where, as is there useful.
Laws of constant & occasional concernment. (3 A large proportion of the Laws are such wherewith
the great mass of mankind, nay even more
of the profession, except on such extra-ordinary
occasions as may not happen to a one man in
his whole life, are no ways concerned to be acquainted
with: under the heap of these, the few
with which they are sure to have concern, lie
buried.

Part. Codes — Utility of. Prelud.
The more there is of it, the less likely he a man is to have
it all if there is a vast deal, he is frightened and
learns none.
Dealer (2 was his to look A tradesman works <add>A dealer who has reason to go backwards & forwards</add> for a number
of Articles, scatter'd up and down a Warehouse
in incertain places +, + holes and corners near at hand but let them be if he knows they are all past put up for him in a cupboard by themselves. the larger that Warehouse,
the greater is his trouble: but the size of
the Warehouse is no concern of his if they
all put up by themselves in a cupboard
in such a manner where he knows where to find them.
