1829. Feby.
Petition for Justice
III. Conclusion
Existg System
Character
1.
Character of the two
Systems.
1. Of the existing system
the aptitude for it's real
end, inaptitude
for its pretended, accomplished.
Proposed System
character
2.
Proposed system — well
intentioned invited
ill intentioned challenged
to point out
it's imperfections, and
to show that after
such particular corrections
as would be
made by Parliament,
nothing better than
vague generalities &c
could be brought agst
it.
J.B's
Apology as to
Existig System
3.
Apology for the treatment
given to the existing
System. Sufficient is apology formed by it's inaptitude
compared with the aptitude
of the proposed
system.
J.B.'s
Apology as to
Judge & Co.
4.
Apology for the treatment
given to the Administrators
of it, necessity
of removing the
weight of their authority.
— as to their
peers
5.
Their comforts being
proportioned to the
people's miseries, their
panegyrics on it will
be proportioned to it's
inaptitude.
---page break---
2. as to their
Reputation
6.
Thence the lessening
their authority became
a necessary
howsoever painful
part of our enterprise.
Objections
Answer 1
Authors of
their own
disgrace Judge &c
7.
Imputations that will
be cast on this endeavour.
1. Weakening the efficiency
of the law.
Answer. Towards
this can any thing
be done more efficacious
than what
has been done by their
Answer 2
Laws efficacy
not lessened
8.
2 The efficacy of the
law depends not on the
estimation in which
the administrators
of the force of it are
held.
Cause II Efficiency
force not operative
9.
— but on the expectation
that, in case
of non-compliance,
punishment will be
applied to non-compliers.
Necessary to
good rule
is restraint
by the Operator
10.
True, by apprehension
of public opinion, Judges
may be kept from
holding the course
he would otherwise:
but being applied only
in its general way,
more to be desired
than deprecated is
this restraint.
Restraint.
Use on the
Law itself
11.
So even when applied
to the law itself, as
well as to the administration
of it.
---page break---
Postponed to the last
2*? Say House if
remedy less
comprehensive be sufficient
12.
Let House consider
whether, to the mischief
from such all
pervading depravity
any effectual remedy,
short of compleat abolition,
can be applied:
and whether, refusing to
apply it, House
can be any thing
better than an enemy
to the community
J.B.s Regret
as to Judge &c.
13.
This considered not
without regret can
be contemplated the
uneasiness necessarily
produced to Judge
and Co. by the benefit
to the community.
Regret Regret no sufficient
reason contra
14.
But by this uneasiness
no sufficient
reason is afforded
against now producing
it.
Causes — diminution
Regret
15.
Causes of diminution
to this regret.
I Tardiness
1. Length of time ere
the change can have
been established.
II Leader
untouched
156.
All that time, men
already in great
business, will be enjoying
it without diminution.
III Against
competition, non
returned
2. Of those who cd
otherwise have embarked
in the profession,
many will be
deterred.
16* Not small the number of , which no aptitude of the system can prevent: no particular on the question of fact.
17.
The official class need
not fear: full indemnity
will be insured
them.
---page break---
Disgracement
Answer I
Necessity
18.
2. As to the lessening
them in pubic estimation,
indispensably
necessary was this to
the establishment of
the proposed system,
if apt.
Answer II
Self-regard
universal
19.
Nor to this evil are
alleviations wanting.
Equality
in all.
20.
1. Their conduct, how
adverse soever to public
interest, is no other
than would have been
that of all other men
in their place: general
prevalence of self regard
even all other regard
being an indispensable
condition to the
existence of the speed.
Judge & Co.
Silence as to
interestedness
21.
Judge & Co's silence as
to sinister interest:
when reform is proposed,
never is the need
of it imputed to this
cause: never to any
thing but the difficulty
of the enterprize and
the relative weakness
of human faculties.
as Probity
assumed.
22.
Exclusively intent on
public welfare, regardless
of their own, Lawyers
on this occasion
represented: with as
much reason as Traders.
22*
To the imputation, it is
in each ones power to
substitute transcendent
honor: the gre stronger the
temptation used the fewer
are able to reach it the
greater the glory of those
who are.
