Supplement
§.2. Elucidations
Ætiology and History

Of the departure thus made from the abovementioned regular
Causes for the abandonment departure from of the regular and substitution of
course. What were the final, and in the mind of the originator in question
the three those any one of three adequate of
the efficient causes? Answer these three or at least some
of the one of them: nor is there, that one of them which would
not of itself have been sufficient to the production of the effect

1. Perfectly unintelligible be incapable of producing the effect
desired was seen by him to be the regular course

2. Perfectly unintelligible to him was that same regular
course, as to every thing but the fact of such its be so
accomplished inaptitude.

3 By having betaking himself to the regular course of procedure, —
carried on it could not be by any other than the regularly
constituted authorities — the fee-fed Judges: — he would not no otherwise than at an enormous expence and
correspondent enormous
delay could be

whereas by carrying it on in his own way at his own home
he could be sure of carrying his part without any expense.

Now While this decidedly and necessarily convenient and

to which the species of judicature originally was and, under the existing system must without much exception
continue to be confined, — a man would suffer loss experience loss from the
loss of his course than under the regular course he would

1. Only as say minute portion of the field of a legislating and judicature
would or should be they, and in particular on the first occasion be thus taken out of their hands.

2 Of that field but a case Only in a comparatively small degree
if at all in any, would that same portion have been productive to them, had it not been
taken out of their hands: the evil of the expence of making necessary to
the purchase of this service a chance of their service for the purpose in question, being so assuredly and manifestly greater
than the good derivable from such their service supposing it reduced.
