Judicial Estab.

draws forth those talents faculties only which exist already
and those in a torpid state: hope not only brightens &
strengthens talents and but creates new. The hired
advocate will naturally do his very best: under but even
under that regimen the every pensioned advocate will
sooner or later come to do the worst as badly as
he can do and escape censure consistently with his escaping censure.

But whether under any regimen the pensioned
advocate will in fact do his business equally well with the
hired one is but a question of speculation abstract speculation:
the material question is whether he will be
thought to do so?: and the answer can be no other
than in the negative. That this man is but one
out of ten or twenty times the number they might
otherwise have had to choose out of, will occurr to
everybody: and few causes will be lost which
will not excite in the mind a regret for the
insufficiency deficiency in the breast of the unsuccessful
party: and to an unsuccessful party a want
of skill or exertion with a on the part of the advocate
will under such circumstances afford a
more obvious ready and much more acceptable mode of accounting for the ill
success than any weakness in the cause. Whit
of treachery should be suspected where all interest the
vulgar motives to attachment are all wanting motives to interested attachment are altogether
wanting and the legal proof proof or disproof of treachery so
little likely to be attainable?
