Page 25 - UniversalJurisprudence, ch. II, p. 25 : All things belonged originally to mankind in common. The benign Giver of all gifts did not distribute them to some to the exclusion of the rest of the species. In the state of a community of things the first bodily occupancy and use of so much only as human wants from time to time required. supplied the place of property.

This claim could not have been given by the Americans themselves; for it is the privilege, not of the enemy, but of the neutral country, which has a right to see that no act of violence is committed within its jurisdiction.

The high privileges of a neutral are forfeited by the abandonment of that perfect indifference between the contending powers in which the essence...

Page 26 - ... the place of property. In the primitive state every man had a right not to be hindered from using whatever land or produce he had appropriated to himself and he immediately wanted for rational use, and the bestowment of bodily labour on a thing was the only mode of acquiring a positive title to it. Agriculture could not flourish, nor its fruits be improved or ripened into maturity. Ingenuity was not sufficiently rewarded, disputes continually arose; the ingenuity and industry of man were checked....
Page 203 - ... retinue. His demands were, that all slaves should be set free ; that all commonages should be open to the poor as well as to the rich ; and that a general pardon should be passed for the late outrages. Whilst he made these demands, he now and then lifted up his sword in a menacing manner : which insolence so raised the indignation of William...
Page 117 - ... criminal, present, or refusing to appear, or even confessing his crime, or being convicted of any of those crimes which in the laws prior to these we now promulgate, and which we will have to be absolutely and entirely abolished, were styled capital.
Page 26 - The increased wants, improved agriculture, and valuable elegancies of incipient civilization gave birth to the distinctions of property.
