Law Sinecures.

"lucrative Offices in our Courts of Justice, which are

"a considerable part of the valuable appendage to
"those situations, which it concerns the essential
"interests of the State, still more than its dignity
"to those filled by persons who are the most eminent
and best qualified in those professions."

that could were to be found anywhere, in by whom
whose instance after he had run through slumbered over his Blackstone
such considerations could escape being considered.

"Essential interests of the State – dignity of the
"State" – as if a set string of vague and uninstructive unmeaning generalities such as

whom such unmeaning trivialities could be accepted
in the character of reasons.
