Had the objection the weight which for the purpose of the
argument is here attempted to be given to it, what would be
the result? either that in the country the Jury system ought to be abolished
altogether, or that the use of it ought to be much narrowed,
or that the district system of division of the country districts into which the for
the purpose of Jury trial the country has been parcelled out, ought
to go undergo a total change. Not that there is in all this nothing I do not mean to say that in

Two advantages are brought to view as forming between them a preponderant and sufficient reason for substituting to that everchanging population.
1. "Complaints in Court, by gentlemen .... brought 15 miles from
"their homes": – Men of opulence, paid for being gentlemen,
paid for coming to town, they a place to which they would are continually coming, if not paid they would
(pleasure included) about their own business not have been grudged coming to see an Opera or visit somebody
when at home, paid for coming 15 miles – the
utmost extent of this small county smallest of small counties, where which
common Jurymen, who receive no pay, are in so many
other Counties brought thirty or forty or fifty miles to a place
which they others would never have seen otherwise unless thus forced
they would never have set foot in.
