Scotch Reform To Ld Grenville
That which What these general assertions profess to do and are said to do, but do not,
is – giving information capable of being of use to him (the Plff) for whom
as they are pretended to be designed – information enabling him
to make sufficient if he happens to have a legal and true
defence, sufficient preparation for that defence. That which they
do, and which unquestionably has its use, is – the putting
an end to the charm of useless unnecessary altercation, which goes on
when for want of a form of General Issue deemed opposite, the succession
of alternate instruments goes on to the length and assumes
the name and character of special pleading: snaps off the
charm, just as Get about your business – or sing of the skill
coarser and formularies in vulgar use for breaking off conferences
which might have done instead of it.
As for Not guilty – the most comprehensive extensive species of
General Issue or defence – that which covers demand to a greater extent than all the others put together – applied to the notion of trespass or
does not, except in so far as the declaration in trespass may
happen to contain true and intelligible information, convey
any information whatsoever: applied to Forms it is out
of the power of it to convey any true and intelligible information,
the declaration in Forms not conveying itself, any such
information, unless perhaps it be the designation of the individual
thing claimed: applied to Ejectment it is out of the power of
it to convey even that lame and imperfect scrap of information –
even that not being conveyed by the declaration in Ejectment.
