Press
Looking Turning to the Journals, I see in company with the
for the prevention of and hitherto never to
to prevent outlawries the regular appointment of a regular committee and
the of the Committee of .
Of the mischief in that part of it which belongs to
the design and subject of these pages this sketch pamphlet, the source of viz:
the sourcing of punishment, as and for the offence of libelling, to
the publishers and authors of every paper wh by which
in any high-seated bosom, the emotion of displeasure
happens to have been excited, the source, supposing it realized,
lies in the King's Bench: of the reference to of the Exchequer
the mention here made has had no other view than that
of affording proof – and that proof which admitts of no
dispute, of the avowed prevalence of the both principle and practice.
In the Kings Bench, how far that which has this
been rendered probable, is true – viz the formation of
a sort of standing army of Jurors under the command of
the Judge – a Court of Star Chamber revived
with a sort of drop-curtain and other improvements which
were wanting in to the old one – a bench of permanent
Judges in on which the are in a state of still more
fearful description under the Presiding Chief than could naturally
have had place in that Court of Star Chamber which went
by its own name – all these though these are amongst the things which
may there at that hitherto ideal hour and not till then be known, at which when
thereto it ever came to pass, when the state of judicature
by the courtesy of England called by the name of justice shall
cease to be a matter of compleat indifference, that the
Committee of Justice the name of which is still presents – unfortunately regular an axe is the appointment of regular
itself with accustomed regularity in the of the House of Commons committee, the functions of it are compose as regular
shall to be and profound a sinecure – a sinecure as compleat
the f allowance of £ a year subject to understand deduction that shows were attached
to the
of each of its members
to pay him in recompense for the labour
of being supposed to do
duties of it.
