III Rationale
Ch. Quasi Jury
General Observation
Jury features discarded
104 or 24 or 14
As to sinister or
of Government: especially in
Government causes.
Anglici from Government
Jurymen have impunity
to hope and fear: Quasi
Jurymen have next to
nothing.
2. In the case of the Quasi Jury in the present case
there is no such wish to do for the Quasi Jury as in that case for the Jury
no bad in antipopular government to for the people to
defend themselves against, to as soon as possible, and
in the meantime for both purposes to keep as weak as possible.
Made by then the government is accordingly made for them:
to weaken the government were such a thing possible were then
on the part of any individual any value for it would be to weaken his own their
own security. own scarcely together with that of who
are most done to him.
105 or 25 or15
3. Anglici government
being hostile to people as above.
in Government causes
the greatest use of Jurymen
is to creat it.
Here, the Government
being made by and for
the people is nothing but
evil could be for done
by weakening it.
Therefore that which it was the in the case of the
Quasi Jury it was the tendency of secrecy to do, and what in
that case was good, would not if it could be done be in
the case good what contrariance evil.

True in a Judge
an English Jury the
concealment is not always
entire: the parts taken by
some may be known to
others, by whom they may
be made known to
propose without doors
by whose favour or displeasure a mans
condition may be made
matity better or worse.
But inconsiderable
will always be the
number of such disclosures
in this case, compared
with what it would be
were every thing that
passed open to the public
eye or ear, not in the
case of open voting
True it is, that in the case of the English Jury true it is that
not only is the part taken by them collectively made public,
but also neither as to the parts taken by them separately
is the concealment universal constant and entire and
constant, the consequence is that in a case in which
interests and affections are operate with a certain degree of in the
engaged, the part taken by this or that one of the Juryman may
be made known by this is that other to this or that
person out of doors by whom whose favour or displeasure the condition of the individual
no question made better or worse. But in this case the
number of such disclosures will evidently be very inconsiderable,
in comparison of what it would be if as in the case of open voting, the part taken
by each were exposed to that which laid open to the eyes inspection
of the public at large.
