1823.
Greece. J.B's observations on particular Articles
(2)

But now comes to mind one of the 2 functionaries
styled in Article 20th Ministers, namely the Minister of Justice.
As towards the functions committed to the joint exercise
of these 11, what is the relation which the function
this minis so called minister of Justice
he is intended to exercise bears?

As to the Minister of Justice, him I have worked
for, him I should be glad to keep, but as for these 11,
unless it be for one of them somewhere in the character
of Judge in a single seated Judicatory, no one of these
have I any work for: much rather would I give to
each of them for doing nothing the whole of the emoluments intended for
him, for doing nothing, than forbearing his part in the
business, whatever it may be, that was intended for the
whole. As to the arrangement made in article 83 in
which the Judiciary power is designed and declared
to be in a state of independence as well with relation to
the Legislative power as with the relation to the Executive
power, such independence is in direct contrariety
with my principle of absolute and universal dependence
on the Supreme power of the whole as as above.

But hereupon it becomes necessary, I should
proceed to state what the sort of arrangement is
which I should propose to make with relation to the
business of this department.

So far took to Blaquiere
March 1st 1823.
