Art. 9. 7. Only by a
still more
still more productive
cause official fees
and law-taxes is
the cause of delay and denial
of justice secured from
general notice.
Ratiocinative continued

You make a defalcation of one from the total number of
judicatories, and thereby make a proportionable addition
to the length of journeys and demurrage in the instance
of at least one judicatory; and produce to a correspondent
amount you produce denial of justice, together with encrease of
delay vexation and expence, as above. But, for
whatever reason you should add make an such addition
of one Judge in any one Judicatory, for the same
reason should you make that same addition in every other
Judicatory. Place then in each Judicatory instead of one Judge two Judges,
you reduce the total number of judicatories to 300 instead
of 600 — the number requisite to prevent denial
of justice: place in each Judicatory three Judges, you reduce
it to 200 and so on: producing, by every Judge the addi
such addition made to the number of Judges in each Judicatory
a correspondent unavoidable addition to denial
of justice, together with still greater addition to delay, vexation and expence.

Art. 10. 8. By protracted
opposition or pretended
doubts a dishonest
Judge may injure
a person by delay,
to any extent: not
diminishing his own reputation,
but encreasing it
by the appearance of
anxiety to do justice.

Ratiocinative.
Art. 10. 8. If, of two Judges either has, by means
of corruption, or sympathy or antipathy towards this or
that individual or sinister interest which is promoted
by delay, — he has it in his power — not only to produce
it to an indefinite extent, but to produce it
without scandal by pretending doubts; and, while in
this way promoting the sinister interest, to acquire he
may be acquiring the reputation of extraordinary prætio-ordinary
moral aptitude, on the score of prætio-anxiety
to judge aright.
2 Ratiocinative. Instructional
Art. 9. Art. 6 7. Only by a still more abundantly productive
cause, namely law taxes and law fees official and professional,
are the these effects of supernumerariness of Judges in the
production of denial of justice together with aggravation of delay
vexation and expence, kept out of concealed from general observation.
