but the possibility

that such an accompaniment to it should be executed in a case such as

that in question, is, by the very supposition, excluded. It being by the

very motive of man rendered impossible that, in the situation, the

greatest happiness of the greatest number shall be taken for the

accompaniment of this sort, could not, supposing the workman known, and

known to be in subjection to his employer, promise itself any more

acceptable effect, than that of exposing the workman

as well as per employer to ridicule.
