Scotch Reform To Ld Grenville
A regulation enacted and printed given to the public as binding, and thereupon in
practice complied with or infringed, as suits the purpose of
he person or the time: a game called in plain English,
playing fast and loose. Here then is one of those double
Fountains of which I in the character of one of the injuries/engines
of the technical system I have already had occasion to to speak.
injuries/engines under that injurious system, so convenient to the authors,
so admirably adapted to the ends of judicature.
Your Lordship may perhaps remember recollect the time when
this species of duplicity was in the case of the East India
company, made matter of imputation : but technical judicature
being a sink into which the eye especially at so great a distance of Parliament , can
so seldom endure to pay, that this and worse has continued for ages
in the state of every day's practice.
