Under the English system generally speaking, full
lengths of time are allotted for every each operation: length of
time without any the smallest regard to the quantities of time
necessary to the ends of justice — the different quantities demanded by different
distances between place and place, between the differences
in respect of which the degree of complication in the cases — the
place of residence habitual and actual rebides of parties and necessary witnesses, in a word not
