Utilitarian \U*til`i*ta"ri*an\, n.
   One who holds the doctrine of utilitarianism.

         The utilitarians are for merging all the particular
         virtues into one, and would substitute in their place
         the greatest usefulness, as the alone principle to
         which every question respecting the morality of actions
         should be referred.                      --Chalmers.

         But what is a utilitarian? Simply one who prefers the
         useful to the useless; and who does not? --Sir W.
                                                  Hamilton.
