The only useful knowledge is that which teaches us how to seek what is good and avoid what is evil; in short, how to increase the sum of human happiness. [This] is the great end: [it] may be well or ill pursued, but to say that knowledge can be an enemy to happiness is to say that men will enjoy less happiness, when they know how to seek [it], than when they do not. This reasoning is on a par with that of anyone who should refuse when asked to point out the road to York, saying that his inquirer would have a much better chance of reaching York without direction than with it.
いつもお世話になっています。早速、質問します。
1. [This] is the great end: [it] may be well or ill pursued, の [This] と [it] は、それぞれ何を指しますか?
2. when they know how to seek [it], の [it] は、何を指しますか?
宜しく、お願いします。

1. の This は、how to increase the sum of human happiness を指しており、従って、it も、同じく、this の指すものを繰り返しているのです。
2. when they know how to seek it の it は、happiness を指しています。
