'. Opposite Evils

In the instance of each of these several ends, the attainment /fulfilment/ /accomplishment/ of it is a good, the non-attainment, non-fulfilment, non-accomplishment of it is an evil. General direct end of the system of procedure, giving effect to of the /giving fulfilment/ arrangements, predictions and engagements contained in the substantive branch of the law. Evil corresponding and opposite to that end - Inefficiency, non[?]-fulfilment of those same arrangements, predictions, engagements.

First particular end - first branch of /Particular direct end the first: branch the first of/ the General direct end of the System of procedure - Administration of punishment, where due. Evil corresponding and opposite to this end - Non-administration of punishment where due.

Second particular direct end; second branch of the General direct end of the System of procedure - Collation of rights, where due. Evil corresponding and opposite to this end - Non-collation of rights, where due. Third particular direct end; third branch of the General direct end of the system of procedure - Administration of satisfaction where due. Evil corresponding and opposite to this end - Non-administration of satisfaction where due.

    Ends of Justice

    But the functions of the substantive branch being distinguishable into three principal divisions - giving indications of the cases in which rights shall be considered as created and possessed, and satisfaction as for correspondent wrong shall eventually be administered - of the cause[?] in which, at the requisition of a party, rights shall be conferred on him by the Judge - and of those in which at the instance of a proper person, punishment, for the more effectual prevention of wrongs shall be administered, the one object just mentioned as constituting the main end of the system of procedure will admitt of three correspondent divisions: from which result three specific or more particular ends - and all of them equally direct - 1. administration of satisfaction where due: 2. collation of rights (to be conferred by the Judge) where due: and administration of punishment where due.

    These being proper ends of the system of procedure, judicial procedure may with equal propriety be termed proper ends of judicature: and these appear to be of the number of those ends which are commonly in view on the part of those who speak under the appellation of ends of justice.

    To the results correspondent and opposite to the results designated by these ends, viz. non-administration of satisfaction where due - non-collation of rights where due, and non-administration of punishment where due, no one, it is supposed, will refuse the appellation of evils - injustice or modification of injustice - acts of injustice - evils opposite and correspondent to those several ends of justice.

    For the sake of uniformity, viz: for the purpose of enabling these three particular ends to be spoken of with the greater facility in [...?] with those which will successfully be brought to view, there will be a convenience in bringing to view three evils as respectively opposite and correspondent to the /these/ above three specific ends. Each end may in this case /way/ be said to consist in the negation or avoidance of its oppostie and correspondent evil. In the former case /mode/ the end (i.e. the proportion cumulative of the end) will be /was/ brought to view in what nay be called its positive or affirmative form /shape/ or dress /garb/: in the other / this other mode, it is brought to view/, in a negative form.

    That[?] main End in the affirmative form - application of punishment where due. The same third end in the negative form - avoiding the evil consisting in the non-application of punishment, where due.

    Second main end in the affirmative form. Collation of rights where due The same third end in the negative form - avoiding the evil consisting in the non-collation of rights, where due.

    Third Main End in the affirmative form - administration of satisfaction where due.

    Ch.1. Ends

    ' 3. Procedure Branches

    Particular Ends.

    With the above /this/ division of the general direct end of procedure into its principal ramifications, the three /principal/ particular direct ends, the division of /by which/ the system of procedure /is divided/ into its main branches, corresponds in some degree to a certain degree/, but does not exactly coincide. To provide for the administration of punishment where due, is the function as well as object of a particular branch of an extent no where as yet exactly determined, called the penal branch, in which another of still[?] more /equally/ indeterminate extent called the criminal is included. But in the administration of punishment, if apposite[?] in kind, service of collation of rights, is as hath already been seen, in many instances included. In the penal branch of procedure the business is /operations are/ not confined to the first of the three ends of procedure, but extends itself /in its aims, extend themselves/ in many instances to the second. Moreover In case of injury as[?] hath just been seen, the remedy without /unaccompanied by/ the remedy afforded /administered/ by satisfaction, the remedy applied /afforded/ by punishment would be incompleat. But, in a case where both remedies are in demand, it is seldom that the existence of the act of delinquency can be sufficiently established for one purpose, without being and by the same process, sufficiently established for the other. In the penal branch of procedure, the business is therefore neither confined /neither/ to the first nor to that and the second of the three ends of procedure, but in its aims, extends itself to all three.
