Collateral instruction
suggested by the state
of Danish Government
The law of judicial procedure, and in connection with it that
branch alone of Constitutional law which regard the organisation
of the judicial branch of the Official establishment is the desired
subject matter of the present proposal this, and not
the formation organization of the legislative authority, or of the constitution
But the state of government in Denmark being there on the
carpet — a collateral portion an opportunity since afforded for submitting holding
up to view to the people of the country a portion of institution which
presents itself as collaterally flowing from it.

Absolution adopted as
a relief from Aristocracy
About the middle of the 17th century to such a degree were the people of
Denmark and its dependencies oppressed by an aristocracy
ridden Monarchy, that for relief from that yoke
no other mode or chance of relief presenting itself they threw
themselves into the arms of absolute Monarchy, submitting
themselves without reserve to the arbitrary will of that one individual
and enabling them to place the members of the aristocracy
along with themselves under his fist.
24
Absolute monarchy
with a real constitution
better than a monarchy
limited only by the
aristocracy
Of The beneficial effect of this measure arrangement one very extensive
and striking exemplification has been brought to
view, and the people of this country are now enabled to see
judge whether so far as regard the administration of justice
the condition of the people of Denmark under an
absolute Monarchy with a really existing Constitution constitutive
of that form of government is not preferable is not
in a greater degree beneficial to that interest than the limited
Monarchy of the country limited no otherwise than by the
power of an aristocracy, a limitation the result of which is to from which the vast majority of
the members of the community is not good but positive evil.
A really existing Constitution not a purely imaginary one
which with such matchless effrontery those who profit by the
imposition are continually transporting forth with the
epithet matchless as if it were a really existing one.
