Supplement.
§. 2. Elucidations.
Justice of Peace
Official Establishment
System
☞ After Petty Session or before?
Provided by the here proposed system
securities for appropriate aptitude have been seen above.
For the inaptitude correspondent and opposite to that same aptitude, some
tolerably efficient securities, provided by the existing system,
have been seen already. But the list is not
near exhausted.
Peculiar to English policy, additional
sources from which the matter of corruption is
poured into the situation, behold for example these:
sources, composed of so many additional occupations,
exercised, — one or more or all of them by the same individual, in conjunction
with the function belonging to this judicial office. Behold
him accordingly —
In the salvation of the Members of Parliament.
1. An imposer of taxes of all sorts on persons of all sorts —
There are many instances in which a Member of Parliament to that legislation judicial office: which is what everyone does pleases
2. An imposer of Poors rates, paying his workmen out
of other men's money.
3. A Game engrosser, pampering himself and friend
with the flesh of animals fed by the produce of the industry
of poor neighbours.
4. A Public-house owner, and Rival publican's licence
refuser.
5. A Highway enclosed, swallowing up public property
in his own private property, and condemning a whole
neighbourhood to continual hard labour, employed
in travelling on bad and crooked roads instead of good and strait ones.
6. A select vestryman: imposing taxes on pretence
of promoting religion, and converting the proceeds
into the matter of corruption, employed in. the purchase
of accomplices in his maleficence, in this shape
and all others.
7. A Grand Juryman, to throw out and prustrate
the written instruments called Bills, when preferred
against himself, or any of his colleagues, or other
confederates.
