1827. Septr. 23
Penal Constitutional Code

Ch. Challenging &
(7) (7 §.

7
Under technical
procedure expence
renders the remedy
inaccessible

As to Technical procedure while it has swollen the expence
of the remedy to an amount which renders it unacceptable to
more humble, native or of the population
offers this remedy for no injury wrong no peccadillo
in its to judge it from of it not only from its genuine but from its
ordinary character so trifling as not to present to the view of
him by whom it has been seduced the burthen of it such as it is the prospect of obtaining
in satisfaction for it the gratification of seeing the wrongdoer
made to suffer a score, a hundred or thousand times its amount.
Thus while to the the professed is in
equal to 0, and the presser of it no better than a cruel
to the relatively opulent it is a milstone with/by which the lawyer with his
machinery l is enabled to crush the property of his adversary
and render it to a heap of ruins.

Birmingham steam-engine—power
hireable
to every extent within
its range

In Birmingham may be seen and employed a vast
system of machinery made by steam and so constructed that any
quality of within its an entire range say a ten hundred horse
power any quantity that any man wants may be hired to
and employed by him in his wish for any length of time

9
This machinery an
emblem of law machinery
the only difference
that the physical
machinery employed
for good — the psychological
for evil

This hireable machinery may be considered as
a sort of emblem — a of it had been the first to come
into existence of the machinery of the law: the only difference
is — that the physic the production of good is the in some shape or other is the only
purpose to which the physical machinery is employed: whereas
in the case of the psychological machinery what the profit of the
mechanist and his journeyman and apprentices are enormous in the
purpose to which it is applied through evil though not indeed always
yet is yet for the most part preponderant — the preponderant
result

Under corporal a an unsuccessful attempt
to give th any the slightest blow; in under mental vexation
any the most word meant as a word of reproach will mean
an action as well as a or by which the sufferer shall be kept for a quarter or half a year
in his court
