la sanguine quom sitiste.

Seeing that all was not right, but in the cursory and incidental
view glance which was the utmost that their duty would admitt allow them to
take, not going to the depth of the grievance, the Committee came forward
with a remedy.

It consisted in taking all the fees, the benefit of which came
directly or indirectly found finds its way into the pocket of the a Judge, taking
all those fees, and throwing them into one common fund, giving the
contents of it out in Salaries.

The same policy, too ingenious and salutary to have been
adopted, had the depths of it been capable of being sounded by the eyes
at that time then at the head of things, had upon an inferior scale experienced the compleatest success
upon an inferior scale. Of In the neighbourhood of the Metropolis,
Judges of that inferior and unlearned class order class description who are distinguished by the
name of Justices of the Peace, had, under the impulse stimulus of the fee-gathering
system, practiced (it was thought) with too sharp an
industry, the art of making business. In comparison of the
adamantine structure reared by the learned labours of so many centuries,
the grievance against which their reform was levelled was
but a molehill to a mountain: but the mole-hill was
under beneath the eye that then was at the head of things, and the mountain
was above it.⊞ ⊞ Ao 17 the London Police Act system was established Judges acting for paying themselves by
fees gave place in those subordinate benches to Judges paid by
Salaries: the fees each fee if collected not remaining in the hand
by which it was collected received, but going into a common fund. the In the
course of the years, the grievance such as whatever it was, is already become matter of history
name of Trading Justice, a name term at that time so often
heard, has dropt already out of the language.
