Superseded?

Upon the whole, I can not help flattering myself that
Your Lordship will concurr with me in opinion, that the
plan is extremely well calculated to fulfill what appears appear to
have been the purpose intended aimed at by it: that and which
in the nature of things the case are only purposes that could have
been aimed at by it: – that consequently accordingly the gentlemen
of the profession, robed and unrobed, learned Lords included,
will see no reason to accuse the learned Author of any
inattention to their interests: that on the contrary they will
find their interests promoted in a very variety of ways,
indemnification for supposed losses, and no losses, at least as
adequate losses incurred really sustained: advantage to many – no
prejudice to any body, but to the suitors – to the good people
of Scotland, who never having been in the possession the habit of seeing
their interests in that character on this occasion at all considered but for the purpose of in any other character than that of being
an object of apparent sollicitude and real sacrifice,
can not with any colour show of reason, complain, nor for
the first time of their being treated with neglect: – considered as having no title being without title to regard
that though in the order faculty of Advocates there may seem to be
at first some ground for jealousy as between the existing possessors vendors
of written, and the new possessors vendors of spoken eloquence
as in England for some time between the votaries worshippers of Common
Law and the Votaries worshipper of Equity, yet, as in more particular from much a closer view
consideration observation it will suppose that there is no real continuity
of interests, that each class will make business for the other
that EnglishJury time will be found to be a mass not substituted but
added to the mass of Rome-bred law (with only this difference – viz that
then it was the Rome-bred that was heated up superadded to the English-bred, in Scotland the reverse.
