PRINCIPLES. 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. Domat, Lois Civiles, liv.
prel. t. 1, s. 2 Toull. tit. prel. n. 17. The right to defend one's self,
continues as long as an unjust attack, was a principle before it was ever
decides by a court, so that a court does Dot establish but recognize
principles of law.
3. In physics, by principle is understood that which constitutes the
essence of a body, or its constituent parts. 8 T. R. 107. See 2 H. Bl. 478.
Taken in this sense, a principle cannot be patented; but when by the
principle of a machine is meant the modus operandi, the peculiar device or
manner of producing any given effect, the application of the principle may
be patented. 1 Mason, 470; 1 Gallis, 478; Fessend. on Pat. 130; Phil. on
Pat. 95, 101; Perpigna, Manuel des Inventeurs, &c., c. 2, s. 1.
