1824. Feby. 8.
Constitutional Code.

Under the here proposed system For the situation of Judge, a class of men preparation
is under this system made of a class of men whose interests
when the checks to injustice that apply to them are taken
into account will be seen to be in a state strictly uniformly
conducive to the ends of justice. By From injustices opposite
to the direct ends of justice they can have no collateral
tolerable chance nor therefore any natural hope to gain profit
in any shape, which at the same time that they have on the contrary every thing
to suffer from it and to apprehend from: and so, as to the
injustice opposite to the collateral ends of justice.

Under this system no Judge person can be a
Judge is there but those by whom an apprenticeship, and that an active one
has not been served in the Judici Judicial chamber – in
the school of justice. With the While such scholars are
to be had palpable would be the absurdity of taking any
of for masters whose service has been in either of those in
which assistance is given and is indiscriminately given without distinction to justice and
injustice.

whom whose palate a mixture of power and honour were most agreeable would
