In Jury trial in the course of procedure, in
which the a Jury are admitted to form the a principal
portion of the judicatory, these features fragments of the natural
system of procedure have been preserved.
But these same valuable invaluable and indispensable
features are also preserved and in equal perfection in
the various judicatories in which the natural system
of procedure is preserved in all its purity: in the
Courts of Commons for example in the single
seated or many seated Courts judicatories of summary procedure
filled by Justices of the Peace acting out of general sessions – in Courts Marshal
and the in the Election Courts judicatories formed out
of the House of Commons under the Grenville Act.
Yet But by the possessors as well as practisers of the
arts of delusion – by those treacherous hostile guides by which
the blind confidence of the people suffers itself to be
led the credit of those inestimable advantages
has been adroitly dextrously given to the and given exclusively
to the system of procedure of which Jury trial
forms a part, while the admission given to those
salutary arrangements in those other judicatories from whence into which
the abominations that have been conjoined with
them in that branch of technical procedure have
been conjoined with them is buried in profound
and prudent silence.
