1823. Sept. 7
Constitutional Code
For all both these purpose ends the main means have been –
1. The keeping the ground of judicial decision to
1. Maximizing the of the ground of and thence
of the result of judicial decision in this case: rendering
it as frequent as may be the offences and
misfortunes resulting from invincible ignorrance in that shape.
2. Rendering it impossible for the a party who is in the right
to cause the those in the wrong to
face him at the outset of the suit in the presence of the Judge: at the outset to the end
that all such measures steps may be taken the effect of which would be
the delay, expence vexation and expence to which the suitor
would otherwise be subjected.
In the mixt and limited form of government Monarchy which has place
in England, the other members of the Monarch and the Sovereignty have at all times ever felt
and still continue to feel the need of the lawyer tribe.⊞ ⊞ They have need of the
trappings and jargon
of the judicial functionaries men of law
professional and official
together for
imposing practising delusion upon the people
and keeping in their
minds the persuasion
that in and by that
jargon the endeavour
of those votaries of injustice
is really to give fulfilment
to the ends of justice.
They have need of
them for the purpose
of establishing under the
name of Common
Law Rules of Common
Law those arrangements
beneficial to the confederated
for destruction to that of
the good
government and to the
happiness of the many, which a mixture of fear and shame
would suffice o prevent them from giving force and utterance
to under their own responsibility and in their own names. Neither
perhaps without the aid of practised lawyers would they have at the the intellectual
power necessary to the giving to the rule of action in all its parts a real as well as
a nominal existence. Under a sense the pressure of this necessity, they
have thus remained content to subject remain themselves to the yokes that imposed
upon them by the lawyer tribe, as the pressure of
it can not but be to men in all situations the highest not
excepted on account in consideration of the advantages possessi resul deducible from
that yoke to which by the help of those confederates
they are enabled to impose on all besides. What they lose
by their share in the depredation committed on all classes by
those licensed and irresistible depredators is made up to them
with encrease by the depredation so much more extensive depredation
and profitable course of depredation which without that assistance
they would feel themselves at a loss to exercise.
