Evidence

In all those Courts the natural, the domestic system mode of procedure,
not having been forbidden proscribed by superior power, is pursued takes place of course. They
may be considered as so many asylums, so many little
strongholds fortresses in which justice has still been able to maintain
herself her ground, after having been driven out of all others by Chicane out of all the others rest.

In all these several examples, the constitution of the Court
is one point thing, the mode of procedure observed in it, another.
In all these instances, if they be compared to compare them one with another the constitution of the Court is various different.
In each it may be better or worse adapted to the partic particular purpose:
but in all those instances but the mode system of procedure pursued by them, is in principle
the same. In all of them it includes possesses the essential features above
delineated marked out. The In this or that instance, the constitution of the Court might be more less
happily felicitously composed: and if any imperfection in the that constitution
injustice, in one shape or other might be the occasional casual result.
But on the be the constitution of those Courts ever so imperfect, the mode of
procedure pursued in them is not the less perfect. At any rate in complexion and contrivance of that system the system
of procedure there is nothing to make injustice in any case certain, justice
impossible: a property which will be found peculiar
to them in contradistinction to the regular Courts.

A circumstance The contrast contrariety striking contrast if ever there was one! is in no small degree a
striking one. A circumstance common to all those Courts –
a very simple circumstance furnishes a clue, which diligently
pursued will lead to afford the solution of every difficulty. In
those Courts there are no Lawyers. The Judges who sit in them
are not lawyers. In those Courts, the hostile and treacherous assistance
of professional lawyers, law-agents, is not forced upon
the suitors.
