Evidence

The On this occasion, for giving an idea of perfection carried into practice
two modes of extraction require to be brought presented to view
on the same line: viz. the mode pursued in Parliamentary
Committees, and the mode pursued in Jury trial,
presented, not it is true, as highest in standing as yet, either of them, on
not as being each of them altogether at the pitch of perfection,
