Ch.3

Of these as special and necessary peculiar advantages — advantages which
can neither be wholly detached from Jury trial, or from
in equal or in any degree, by any other cause; — the number
is but small: small in itself; small in comparison of the
number of those other advantages which though by accident attracted
to this cause, are capable of being in equal degree produced
by other causes. the essential advantages attached to Jury trial, & which cannot be produced in equal degree by other means, are few. In point of importance, however, the whole superiority which the British constitution possesses over any other feudal monarchy, is owing to them.

But when computated by weight, smallness of
number is a consideration which has no influence in the small of no moment.

Of the importance of these advantages, the shortest
and at the same time the most impressive, and at the
same time a perfectly just conception than can be
is — that upon this depends all the whatever advantage the
British constitution possesses as compared with the any other
in which monarchy is an ingredient, and as every investigation
must stop somewhere, at this point, the investigation
may it is supposed on the present occasion
be with safety left to rest.
