notice — and this is that for corruption
in a Judge it is in some cases
possible (such as receipt of hard money
for a declaredly unjust purpose) though
in no case very easy, for the Judge
to be punished whereas for the sort

might not only be content but
desirous to see applied to the power
he is so fond of — subject only to
this proviso that of its being an
inefficient one. Oaths
