II Opinion-giving benefit

It is a complicated
machine for giving a
law opinion: a
Analogue machine
1. No of Lords for applying
King's veto to laws
2. Jury (Petty) for applying
people's veto to individual
application of laws
to individual cases

Now for a or two. Veto in a law — antecedently
to it becoming suit — veto in the application of it to this or that individual
case: to of the complicated instruments employed for these two
purposes the attention of the reader has already been directed.
The House n power of the House of Lords, a complicated medium
for covering from the public observation the operation oft producing the effect
of a Legal negater — le Roi s'avisire: Of this phenomena the /inclination
attention has for some time been pointed by other hands. The power
of the Jury with its twelve numbers a machine for applying a veto
on the part of the people to the exercise of the power of the Judge when
applied to the purpose of inflicting punishment for an offence
this or that individual act of delinquency how clearly so ever
proved.

A piece of machinery not less complicated may be
pronounced this same Reconciliative Tribunal — a machine for giving
by authority a directive opinion in relation to a law case:
and the curious circumstance is — that it is by Non-lawyers that in
this case the oppinion is formed and delivered.

Vast as the laggards know to their cost is the amount
of the opinion trash carried on in England by the fraternity of
the la learned: what would they say were it taken out of their
hands? So would it be, according to the extent given to it in the
logical field of service in law and legislation were a set of Reconciliative Courts
established in England, Scotland and Ireland. Advantages from
such as constitute these

1. The services were obtained at such vast expence, obtained
on the supposition gratis
2. The advice given Clear of all proposed deceptiousness
the advice given will in the ordinary state of things be the
advice given: extraordinary any case in which any such
deception has place. Why? because, some casual
cause of corruption, by an to the action of no sinister interest
will the Member of that tribunal stand exposed: ordinary on the
contrary the case in which, in the course of the opinion trade
such deception has place. Why? because in this case to the
actor of sinister interest in a thousand diversified shapes are do those
living and long verbal oracles these walking tabernacles of law learning
at
at all times stand
exposed: advice to constitute
or defend a suit without
right. advice to employ
in pursuit one implied
remedy will
defendants order an uncontentious
instrument of
defence: an either-sole or more instead of a less dilatory and expensive operation as instruments
