1823. August
Constitutional Code

6. Locator – the individual by whom the choice of those sup
pretended and too extensively supposed apt Judges, is determined, – an
individual who, in no one of that class of cases, in comparison
of which all others, direct into , can with any on any
ground
colour of reason be regarded as otherwise in leagues with
and in in the hand of one of the parties: that can an individual at whose part may
the opposite all opposing parties lie, that party with from altogether
irresistible power and at every occasion actuated by an
interest at terrible in the extreme with that of the great body of the people.

7. Thus In respect of this extent its extent over the sum of causes field of law,
taken in the aggregate, as also in the instance over the field occupied by the several causes
and use in each cause or suit to be separate, their power such as it is to which the power of this fraction of a judicatory applies, the power of to such a degree limited narrowed, that in the instance to which
their interest and indication, is not in opposition to that of the
great body of the people they are it is altogether inefficient
towards affording them a security against that class of man
who whom must to the Monarch and his more directly and surely
subservient instruments are their most mischievous most irresistible
and most implacable enemies – the use of law
in all their forms.

In a case Only on one side of the cause is it ever in the power
in that case what always is ever compleatly to preserve the body of
the people against oppression by misdemeanour: in no case is
it in their power to preserve them against delay vexation and
expence: vexation and expence so intolerable that be at least
scatter not to say nineteen twentieths of the people
the effect of it is an utter denial of all justice: a up
of the helpless to the yoke of the oppressor to the yoke of the and domestic particular tyrant still more than
the great and universal tyrant and oppressor: a yoke which would
be absolutely intolerable and destructive of all society and all populations
were it not for the power and and preventive power
of the Public Opinion
Tribunal that power
which it is the
of which in the shape
of the most uneasy
and indefatigable endeavour
of those in whose
hands is the power of an a hostile government and corresponding an accordant system of laws
