Ch. English Law. Introductory Observations

In the Roman System mode of regular procedure in relation to the
extraction and receipt of testimony, we have seen seeing a uniform
system of incongruity and imperfectionL a system deplorably
bad in itself, but so far good, inasmuch as it uniformly pursued
not good for any case, with inconsiderable exceptions, and those in themselves beneficial ones but uniformly applied to all
cases. We have seen It is radically and totally unfit for its purpose, unconducive
to its professed objects ends: but to that general nastiness imperfection mischief
it has not added does not add the mis particular mischiefs of complication
on the part of the system, nor the reproach of inconsistenc
on the part of the men in power those who act upon it.

The reader will here have before him a system which
in respect of its leading features fundamental points may be seen to stand at
the pinnacle of perfection: a system the excellence of which
if not very clearly distinctly understood is at least universally
felt and recognized: recognized, and proclaimed with
general universal principle and exultation: boasted of, and by the
very same whose persuasion conviction of the exclusive excellence of it
is most frequently declared decidedly and acted upon in practice, on particular occasions habitually departed discarded from
with the most unfeeling and passive indifference; habitually discarded,
and exchanged for a system mode which if wherever it is not exactly the same
as the Roman mode above delineated is still worse.
