In England dispositions
and intentions bad in
Denmark good — demonstration

5. Now for the proposition that by the example thus
given by Denmark, demonstration is afforded that in
England the non-existence of gratuitous justice is the
result of wilfully bad government, not of the nature of
things.

On the part of the rulers in Denmark proofs of goodness
of intention as exhibited in and by the institution in
question are the following

1 In Denmark actual
diminution of suits in
judicatories where sale
& denial of justice established.

1. The actual diminution of the number of suits in
those judicatories in which the as in England, sale and denial
of justice was famed established, and in but too large a
proportion can not but continue established.

2 Actual gratuitous distribution
of justice to
the indigent

2. The actual establishment of the practice of distributing
justice pr through to the relatively indigent, and thus for
aught that appears, through not merely over in the part
allotted to the Reconciliation Tribunals, but throughout the whole
field of law.

3 Frank recognition
of corruptive influence of
the fee gathering system

3. The frankness and sincerity as well as discernment
manifested [by the Danish rulers] in the recognition acknowledgement made
of the corruptive influence of the fee gathering mode of remuneration on
the conduct of Judges, and of the system of bad judicature
misdecision and factitious delay, expence and vexation that has been the
result

4 Non completion of
gratuitous justice system
owing to want not of
moral but intellectual
aptitude.

From Of all which [proofs of goodness of intention] indications the result is
that the it is owing — not to want of goodness of intention
not to deficiency in respect of appropriate moral aptitude
but to a want of a sufficiently advanced sufficient advance
as yet made in the truck of appropriate intellectual aptitude,
that the what is still wanting to compleat the
system, of gratuitous justice is to be ascribed.
