Ch. IX. Ministers Ch. XII Judiciary Collectively
§. 13 §. 25. Term of Service

☞ 1827 Nov. 23. Of this mass of Rationale the subject matter
belonging to none but English practice and phraseology can not suitably
receive admission into the Constitutional Code at any rate unless it be
the part which regards
the limited Portion
viz. from Art. 10.

Confer §. 30 Dislocable how

Ratiocinative.
Art. Question Why are not the functionaries
here in question continued in office during good behaviour.

man of wealth,) and a son of the corruptee – (a Judge) –
it is settled, that upon the Corruptees adjudging to the
Corruptor the estate in question, the Corruptor shall
give to the son of the Corruptee a lucrative office
or his daughter to wife, with a larger fortune:
