24 March 1805
Evidence

By the legislator, had his endowments been adequate
and his attention duly and steadily pointed to the task, the consequences
of this unhappy contrariety of interest might from the first originally
have been, and may at any time be obviated, and the mischief
in a great degree averted. Unhappily he legislator repelled by
the factitious difficulties of the subject, has every where, in a for the
most part
great degree shrunk from the task, having the arrangements of procedure to be settled laid down in the way of jurisprudential law, by his
inadequate incompetent and essentially incapable vice-gerent, the man of law himself the Judge: or
where in the character station of legislator, and in the form of statute
law, a man has stood forth to cleanse the system of procedure
of this or that portion of the mass of abuse which has been seen with which it has been
seen to be infested
adherent to it, the legislator has been no other than the man of
law himself, with all his vices and imperfections, the fruit offspring of his sinister interests
upon his head, employed by the sovereign to undo his own work,
to counteract his own oppose his own interests, to counteract frustrate
and impede frustrate his own designs.
