Choice of hands - Recapitulation.

Recapitulation

Draughtsman single, Draughtsman foreigner rather than native Draughtsmanship /work/service/ gratuitous - between all these several points /provisions/ the connection it has been seen is most intimate: they tend they tend all of them in concurrence to one common end: an end which has too often been mentioned to need mentioning here

What now remains is - to bring into one comparative view the grounds on which they are respectively advocated and recommended

The work in question is the original draught: nothing beyond it. For the original draught, hand but one - for the amendment of it hands the more the better.

The object is to rid of the sinister influence which the several sinister interests general and local and correspondent interest-begotten prejudices as well as other prejudices tend to exercise on it: sinister interests, by which in proportion to their efficiency the aptitude of the workman and thence of the work considered in a moral as well as an intellectual point of view can not fail to be impaired. To the sinister operation of these causes of inaptitude, the constitution /nature/ of human society offers /presents/ one check, the proposed rationale /the particular nature of the present design/ another. That which the constitution /nature/ of human society offers is the controuling /tutelary/ influence of public opinion: that which the particular plan here in question offers, is the rationale: the obligation of attaching to each distinguishable arrangement the considerations by which the opinion has been produced of its being in a higher degree contributory to the greatest happiness of the greatest number.
