In giving to the system the denomination of the English System,
I had nothing more no other view than that of applying
to that purpose a notorious and simple
matter of fact. National attachment had no share in the
bringing to view a matter of fact which will may be seen to afford
so little cause for national exultation self esteem pride.

In fact, than been The plain truth is that in this part
of the system of established procedure nothing more is to be
seen than a fragment, a fragment preserved rather by fortune rather than by wisdom, by accident rather than design, a pretious fragment of the system of natural procedure – of domestic procedure of that
mode of procedure which common sense dictated from the first
still continues and never will cease to dictate prescribe as the
plan that proper to be pursued, and which accordingly is
pursued in the bosom of every private family in that species
of tribunal which Nature has set up established in the district demesne of every
family, by the head of the family, as often as occasion
serves calls for the unpleasant exercise of the unpleasant but sometimes
necessary function of sitting in judgment on the conduct
of any of its subordinate members. If the characteristic features of
it are still preserved in the procedure Trial by Jury, in that system
in the construction of which, together with the abuses with which
it is covered, the interes arts of lawyer craft have had so
large a share, it may be seen in much better preservation
in the procedure of those tribunals, the whose pursuits of which the professional men of
law has been unable or has disdained to penetrate intrude himself.
