By this term is understood truths or propositions so clear that they cannot be proved nor contradicted ,
unless by propositions which are still clearer .
They are of two kinds ,
one when the principle is universal ,
and these are known as axioms or maxims ;
as ,
no one can transmit rights which he has not ;
the accessory follows the principal , &
c .
The other class are simply called first principles .
These principles have known marks by which they may always be recognized .
These are ,
1 .
That they are so clear that they cannot be proved by anterior and more manifest truths .
2 ,
That they are almost universally received .
3 .
That they are so strongly impressed on our minds that we conform ourselves to them ,
whatever may be our avowed opinions .
2 .
First principles have their source in the sentiment of our own existence ,
and that which is in the nature of things .
A principle of law is a rule or axiom which is founded in the nature of the subject ,
and it exists before it is expressed in the form of a rule .
