Ch. Of the sinister improper or illegitimate ends
of procedure.

Hitherto we have been speaking In the foregoing chapter chapters we have been considering
proper or legitimate objects or ends of the system of procedure: ends objects
which in other words may be termed, as in the language ordinary language discourse of
common use they actually are termed – the ends of justice.

We come now to speak of what may be termed the
sinister, improper or illegitimate ends of that same system the system of procedure.

The ends of justice are the ends to or objects the attainment of which the
system of judicial procedure ought in every instance to have been directed: because
it is in proportion as by the attainment of those ends, collectively taken, the aggregate of those ends is attained in as
far as they are attainable, that the the public interest of the community
in general – the interest of the people at large in the character of suitors,
or persons having occ liable to become or to have occasion to become suitors,
in general is served and promoted and directed.

The sinister ends of which we are come now to speak are
those to which the system of procedure is obviously liable to have has been liable to be
been directed; and to which in too many instances, not to say in
toto it will be found to have actually been directed:
viz: the promotion of the interest, the particular pri personal,
or what comes to the same thing professional interest of the workmen operators
by whose hands whom the system has been constructed.

Note (a)
The Herald for the purpose of his frivolous branch of science, has
established himself in the use of the word dexter as correspondent in signification and
opposite to the word epithet sinister. By To the moralist and writer who takes for his
subject the science of morality or legislation, no such convenience is allowed can be assumed.
