24 Obs.

Secret Committees What could have been the object of the Committee
in establishing a tribunal of exception
of so extraordinary a composition, and that
grounded on as it should seem on those aristocratical
notions the just horror abhorrence of which
had been the grand and avowed reason why of
tribunals of exception under name that name the sentence of proscription given at the outset against
by which all tribunals of exception stand condemned?
Was it secresy? so one would naturally
suppose: secresy and that only was
the object of the antient regimen discipline
in this head. Yet conc of secrecy nothing is
here said. What tie is there upon the members
of the family tribunal to bind them upon that head?
What upon the President or the Attorney-General?
Secresy to be depended on and that without injunction
among eight members of a jarring family
some of them women of the female sex, and for
aught that appears of any age?

But who shall say but the Committee
whether the Committee had or had not secresy in view
they who giving bestowing the blessing of publicity
on penal causes refuse it in the same breath so
easily as if the same Judges who would be
partial and corrupt or partial in a penal cause would
be proof against inaccessible to partiality and corruption in a
civil one or as if partiality and corruption in a
civil cause was of no consequence?
