Evidence
With the ends of procedure, the legitimate ends, coincide also
though here again not compleatly, the ends of justice: the ends
of judicature, we shall have been seeing; falls short of the mark: ends of
justice we shall see outstretching it. At the hands of the system of procedure The dictates of justice
are understood to require, in so far at least as the prescriptions of substantive
law are understood to be not repugnant to the dictates of the natural
justice (all this a matter of language and usage) the fulfilment
of the prescriptions of substantive law: and in so far the
legitimate ends of procedure coincide with and are accompanied by, the
ends of justice. But, like as the prescriptions of adjective
law are compared in common popular language and conception with
the dictates of justice, so also are the prescriptions of substantive
law themselves: and as to with the note of the ends of justice as correspondent
to those dictates of justice with and by which substantive law with and by is confronted
and compared tried, the term expression ends of procedure, as it is
evident, no longer parallel and synonymous the coincidence no longer holds.
