Art. 8. By the allotment of a number greater than
needful in each Judicatory, or in a considerable number
of the Judicatories, the ends of justice will be contravened in
another way, through namely the medium of the expense, to wit
by producing, to the injury of a greater or less proportion of
the number of the community, the effect of a denial of justice, and to a yet greater proportion, that of encrease of delay
vexation and expence. and to some. What the ends of jus For denial of justice is the effect,
the ends of justice, Denial of justice is the effect
in so far as, by the length of journeys to and from the judicatory
to the addition of the intervening demurrage, suitors or such
expence to such an amount greater than can be defrayed,
is imposed upon suitors or necessary witnesses:
and, the greater the length of those same journeys and demurrage,
the greater is the expense in so far as the capacity
amount of expense is on that account actually
defrayed incurred. Suppose now a set of judicatories
allotted instituted, such in such number as shall be sufficient, but not more than
sufficient, to secure the community against all denial of justice
from this cause: taken from this number aggregate deduct any number
how small so ever, denial of justice in a proportionable
degree has place. But, scarcely in any country are is the
Judicatories aggregate number of Judicatories so great as altogether to exclude
denial of justice from this cause, the actual number
being reduced, below the relatively requisite number, by the difficulty of
providing for the expence. Now Suppose now 600 the greatest
number of judicatories for the necessary expense of what
provision can be afforded, and suppose this number s
but barely sufficient to exclude prevent as above the denial of justice: add
