Jany 1806

In proportion as the people have crept from under the
oppressions thus destined for them and heaped upon them by the jurisprudential
partnership, it has been under favour of a division
in the partnership itself: The interest of the partnership
is opposite to the interest of the people: individuals in the
partnership saw, or thought they saw, an interest in their own
opposite to that of the firm. The interest of the Scotch forensic partnership,
like that of the antient Roman, was that the rule of action
should be kept buried in utter darkness: The Scotch partnership
contained 's, who saw a real on i
an interest an advantage, real or imaginary, in bringing parts of it into throwing upon parts of it a
a sort of light. Histories of decisions pronounced in the Court of
Sessions had from time to time been published at Edinburgh by different individuals.
In a commercial view the speculation had or had
not answered succeeded to the publishers. Whether to the suitors this
sort of publicity publication, had or had not been beneficial in any degree
in the character of a substitute to the rule of action, and measure
of obedience, to the professional lawyers of different ranks, especially
to the faculty of Advocates, they it had been productive of
no detriment, and of some convenience. Here was matter to
talk and write about: here was ammunition for the
use of both sides. To the publishers The notion spread, that and considering
the narrowness of the market, not unlikely, when considered
at our distance, to be true, true that it had not answered. Hence
a Salary to be offered out of some public fund, found either
payable of course to such chosen persons as by competent authority should
be found deemed competent, found either perhaps a pretence, or more probably a just cause.
Publication made in the name of the faculty of AdvocatesL the Minute-taker selected by the
faculty of Advocates:
