Probity in a Judge is no otherwise farther of use than in
as far as it helps contributes to insure rectitude
of decision: inprobity, no otherwise than of
no otherwise than in as far as it has the contrary
effect. The duty of a Judge judging on the question of
fact is to decide according to the evidence. Being Not
a Judge only and not a legislator he has nothing
to do with the propriety of the law. If there be
any instances in which a Judge is habitually
by the influence of any principle in the practice of deciding contrary to the evidence
that Judge shows himself radically unfit for the
exercise of his function: whether the principle that
governs him determines his conduct be termed improbity or
corruption, or by any name or less obnoxious
name is but a question of words. Let it be humanity
love of liberty, , call it by any other still
more reputable name if you can find one, the
effect in this point of view is just the same.
