Constitutional Code. Ch. XV. Judge Deputes Occasional
§. 5 Remuneration
Complaint of delay having at length burst
forth, to hush it up, a set of Commissioners has have been appointed.
Commissioned Appointed? and by whom? appointed? by the
very person who, if there be blame, is the sole
author of it. But, under the a "matchless Constitution",
so has it been at all times, throughout the whole of
the official Establishment so has it been at all times. So sure as authorized theft has
been committed, so sure is it that, if a show of
redress has been made, it is by the thieves themselves
that the Judges have been named. Time
in abundance is thrown away upon such subterfuges.
Those who are patient under them would be
no less so, if those who practice them were to throw
away the mask, and declare themselves absolute.
True it may be, that by emolument, in some shape or other, given to those who are to sanction it,
Every such subterfuge indeed yields encrease of
pillage. But whosoever wants the money, might
as well take it without account; and thus more
time would be saved. What can any of them have
to fear? Was not the right established in the case
of the first Lord Melville? If not the present Chancellor,
who else was it that, on that occasion,
put into the Bill the clause for preventing the
culprit from being convicted by out of his own evidence mouth?
