Dispatch Court
(2 §. Benefits

7
II Positive

So much for the ne benefits of a negative description. Now
for positive benefits, operating in compensation with for the small
burthen just brought to view.

1 Annihilation of factitious
delay vexation and expence

1. Extinction annihilation of the vast load of evil suffering correspondent and
opposite to the collateral ends of justice — that is factitious delay,
expence and vexation on the part of all suitors in all the suits thus disposed of. So much for the collateral ends
of justice.

2 Decision pronounced
where otherwise it would
be too expensive for
parties to procure.

2. Decision pronounced in cases where decision
being due in favour of the plaintiff's side decision being due
can not however be pronounced by reason of the factitious expence
which the power of defraying which is in that suit creating

9
3 Demonstration of
beneficiency of proposed
system

Demonstration afforded, of the aptitude of the proposed change
with relation to its supposed uncontravertibly beneficial purposes
thereby warrant afforded by experience for the expence
that would be necessary to the institution of the proposed local
judicatories.

Against the benefit
to suitors will appear
the burthen to lawyers
but
1 Compensation to be
given to lawyers
2 Aggregate burthen
imposed on lawyers not
equal to that from
which the suitor will
be relieved
3 Keeping suits open
for the benefit of
lawyers is like keeping
wounds open for the
benefit of surgeons.

Against the benefit conferred in the first place
in all persons whom the experiment finds acting in the character
of suitors, and all those who otherwise would have to appear
in a character so burthensome will be the burthen had in the imposed
on the professional class of lawyers by the arrangement
by which the corresponding burthen will have been taken off the
shoulders of suitors. But 1. It is part of the plan that for this burthen compensation
in so far as the nature of the case admitts should be
made. 2. The aggregate of the burthen thus imposed to the professional class
of lawyer will not approach to an equality with the aggregate
of the burthen from which non-lawyers will have been relieved: for
the individual lawyers those suffering will be those alone
when the change finds an existence: while among the individual non-lawyers
to whom the relief will be extended will be those in all future
times by on whom but for such relief the burthen would have been
imposed, 3. to affording the relief to 3. To frame
out of the burthen thus imposed on lawyers alledged justification for
refusing
refusing the relief to
non-lawyers would be
as if an ordinance
were framed for the keeping
open all wounds for the
benefit of the corporation
of surgeons, or for putting to death a certain number every year for the benefit of the performance of funerals.
