Tit. III
might even be more favoured better consulted by a shorter term such
as one year than by a term of two years. One year
is quite sufficient to as a term of probation to show
whether he suits the place: and when an election comes
round so frequently it is more apt to be looked upon
as a sort of matter of form, in which the confirmation
comes of course unless in case of very general disgust some strong instance
of misbehaviour such as would almost be sufficient to warrant a deprivation.

In point of stability the Good-men-and-true,
it is observable, are put upon the same footing with
the Judge. There is no sort of reason why they
should be put upon an inferior footing in point of
power but that of their being presumed to be so in
point of education and intelligence. They are a
sort of standing Jurymen: but the only advantage advantage
attending the institution of Jurymen is grounded on
point in which the ability of Jurymen
the circumstance of their being changeable and occasional.
They have not time to be corrupted: and the
shortness of the service time of serving, prevents the burthen of
shorter duration of the burthen prevents it from being
intolerable.

This is observed in England in the instances of the Chamberlain of London;
the Chairman of the Quarter-Sessions in Middlesex,
and many other offices. : a consideration This may be worth the notice of those
who are so much afraid of annual Parliamentary Elections.
