§.26

Among the cases which may present a demand
for the exercise of a subordinate legislative authority
as being on some account or other fitter for the cognizance of such an
authority than that of the superior legislature several
are here separately distinctly <add>particularly specified.

73.
Use of the persons
for regulating
the inscriptions
over the doors &c
of Licentiate

§. 46 [ 1 ] [ 73 ] [ Inscriptions ] p. 4 p. 4. Page §. 26 [ 1 ][ 73 ] Page 51* [ . . For the more . . . effectually exhibiting to view the . . . inscriptions . . ] The end in view in regard the
appointment of to Inscrip inscriptions is - that they may present
themselves to the senses, and be apprehensible by the
understanding of all such persons, in whose instance
it may be of use towards the observance or execution
of the law that may they shall be observed remarked and understood.
In general, the larger the letters &c characters, the more conspicuous: but the larger the more expensive
and the size must will be liable at any rate to be limited in
some degree by the quantity of matter to be exhibited,
and compared with the room there may be in each particular
case for their reception. On the tilt of a
Cart or Waggon, you may in which the word
Wooll ( as by certain Statutes) is to be inscribed,
you might have each letter two foot long: which on
a badge, which a person is to carry on his head
or his shoulder or his head (as in the case of the Chimney Sweeper
Boys) the letters can scarcely be ¼ of an inch
in length. This is among the
sort of regulations
which may be much
better exhibited by
patterns than by
descriptive words.
A Board, always sitting and easily constantl
accessible, such as the proposed Board of Police,
might have the advantage of expressing its meaning with the utmost precision by patterns, and in
many instances might be where the inscriptions
were of a moveable kind, might even provide the inscriptions themselves.
Nothing of this sort can well be done by Parliament.
In the case of Inscriptions is exactly upon a pow Stamps, the power of varying the stamps
form of the stamps is committed to the executive government. [ 5 W. 3. c. 21 ]
In the case of this sort of Inscriptions in question, the reasons in favour of other powers
than in that case, are strongest, in proportion to
the number of the diversities of which this latter case is susceptible.
