Evidence

By a sort of loose preconception, and antecedently to any close investigation
of the subject, it will be understood conceived at half a glance, that
in comparison of the first mode, the second is but a makeshift,
and the again the third in comparison of the second: and
that in proportion as to their deviation from the all comprehensive
and all-efficient simplicity of the first, the two others have been but
divested of a portion of their efficiency with regard to the ends of judicature:
that in the instance of the 2d a certainty of additional delay vexation
and expence, together with a chance of misdecision, over and
above what any that have place in the first: and that in the instance of
the third, the diminution of the probability securities of right decision – in other
words the encrease of the probability of misdecision is the certain result, and
the encrease of the quantum of delay vexation and expence, a further contingent,
but yet natural enough and but too probable.

In these deviations from the present standard model we see the result
of necessity, as above explained particularized, and we see all the deviations
that can vouch necessary for their warrant and sufficient cause that have are capable of being justified on that ground, all the
observations that in any way can be shewn to be subservient to
the ends of justice – to the legitimate ends of judicature.
