Evidence

When No sooner is perfection is spoken of, at least as being the result
of human agency, than the mind prepares itself of course
for a journey to the region of non-entities: it figures to itself looks to for a
state of things which either never existed at all, or has long
ceased to exist, and at any rate neither will nor can exist
in time future: appear the golden age, the age when stone received
breath life, from the book of Prometheus, from the song of Amplican
or from the chapel of Praxitites.

Learned or unlearned, what will be the feelings of the reader a man's feelings be what how will the reader say to himself
at learning when he reads. that in this most difficult department branch of
the most difficult science, the examples of perfection are image of perfection is already
used every where, before his eyes?

Happily for mankind, exemplifications of this perfection
though thinly scattered, and cramped in their extent, are still
to be found every where. With Spite of all their industry, backed by all
their power, lawyers have in no country been able to obliterate
altogether the footsteps of justice.

In the jurisprudence of every country you find a distinction applied applying itself
to modes of procedure, and expressed by such terms as regular
and summary. Under the head of summary, look for the exemplification
of the natural system of procedure, as above described.
To this head for example belong eu ci-devant France, the mode in use
in the what were were called the Consular Courts.

In England – 1. The Courts held by Justices of Peace, acting
singly, or though in numbers of out of Sessions. 2. Courts
Martial. 3. Courts called Courts of Conscience for the recovery of small debts.
4. Courts composed of Arbitrators acting under with powers given by consent
of parties under the authority of an Act of Parliament. Vo. 3. Ch.
☞ Add. 1. .
2. Danish Conciliation Courts.
