Supplement
§.2. Elucidation
French

VII. Precipitation necessitated: that is to say by means
of the delay of which it is to a natural and a frequently found
necessitation: but not a degree approaching to that in which it
is necessitated in English practice

VIII Blind fixation of times for judicial operation.
To the evils necessitated by this cause scarcely less blind
do Bonaparte's appear to have been than the English lawyers

IX. Mechanical substituted to mental judicature. Little
in comparison of English practice: but that little by the whole too
much.

X. Mischievous transference and breedying of suits.
None or next to none

XI. Decisions on grounds foreign to the minds. The
abuse not altogether excluded: but its magnitude or that of
a molehill to that of a mountain, compared with highest
practice

XII. Juries subdued and subjugated. In Bonaparte's
Codes this abuse inhuman. But of this antique clumsy and
little understood machinery, too little use be ment use and
inapt use made: but upon the whole even in its present
state beneficial in its tendency and effect, though in a way perhaps
not contemplated by its introducer: that is to say by
the veto it enables this part (by far too small a part) of the
people to apply to the body of law in the the competitive-regarding
part of which is so much exposed to be employed by
the Monarch to the purpose of depredation and oppression or
in a word absolutism

XIII. Jurisdiction, when it should be taken, split and
spliced. Yes: in some degree: but to a degree, by a vast interval
short of that which has been seen to have place in English
practice.
