Most Abridged Supplement &
† Not employed in Petitions
In a newspaper intituled The Morning
Lord Lyndhurst Lord Chancellor of England, and he thereby was
virtually accused of having received a sum of £17,000 for
they proceeded, by information supported by the contrary affidavid
as above: the inference was obvious. His claim was
unfortunate: against the suspicion his Lordship's character
would of itself have been a much better secret, by itself
than with supplement. Unless they drop their prosecution,
and proceed by action the alledged £17,000 will clear
to his reputation, as the leprosy to the skin of Gehazi.
Does he not owe it to his own character to drop or suspend the
information, and proceed by action?
As to the corruptibility of French Judges and their
throne-born corruptibility, – much less though not altogether
for of clear of imputation from these sources, they are
to a much less degree exposed to temptation than those
English brethren of England. His quality of the matter of corruption
receivable in one mass is not so great: the high prizes
in the lottery are not so high: the prizes of immediate
jurisdiction are protected against it by the facility of
Appeal: the Appellate Judges by their multitude which
as it is in other respects was is salutary in this
respect. Of But except of them except a few,
the loud vibration is remade from the pestilential corruptive atmosphere
from the malaria of the Court: approaching by their

of the quondam Parliaments.
Now for the evidence deducible by the Public Opinion
Tribunal from to be too guilt serving and impunity – then Think will of the creation and preservation of their two
establishing rules just mentioned. above mentioned criminality-screening rules. So long as they are supposed
to continue, the proof of an the corruptible on the part of all concerned
in the continuances, in a establishment after notice thus given, will not a
confirm proof have thus been given of a determination taken to
determination to persevere in in the
to persevere in a course of points – constitutional and criminal delinquency, in this
and other shapes – and thus proof – will it be any thing less than short of ?
