Assassin.

Were a prize
proclaimed for
the most abominable
of prostitutions
which of
the three would
bear it from his
colleagues?
Which has tramped
with the most
audacious assurance
are regretted energy

predominance
upon that most
sacred most useful
implement
of religion, the
churchman, the
lawyer or the
legislator? Which
of them all has
laboured with
most happiest
success to make
truth divine, falshood
necessary,
perjury epidemical
and to poison in their
vital source the
morals of the people?

Apologetica
If there be an individual
who
has been happy
enough to escape
the contagion of
the vices of
to his profession,
he will say of
me as Socrates
of the physiognomy
– The man
is in the right –
Jesus Nature implanted
in men
those vices weaknesses
of every place
but I got the better
of them. Nature
threw put those serpents
into my cradle,
but I strangled
them.

It is a bother & a
painful task: but
like that of the
informer it is a
necessary one.

Information of
or rather

Apol. Illiberality
This not illiberal.
National reflections
illiberal –
To say your nature
is liable to wish of
such failing, therefore
you are
with them.

Vitia – Inhumanity

1. Undertaker does not
create

2. Robber & Thief
does not 1. do so much, 2. see what
he does, 3. continue
so long

3. Surgeon – hurts
man but to do him
greater good – Insensibility
necessary
to him be as no other.

Butcher –
, & not
upon their natural
– no others
benefitted.

5. Executioners.

6. Convicted Perjurer
– The one has
trespassed once & been
punished for it – The
other trespasses continually
constantly. is as constantly
rewarded for
it.

In most other instances

have exaggerated –
here they have fallen
short. A dry &
naked exposition statement of
the truth is the thinnest
satyre.

In its opinion of
lawyers I opine his prejudice
has fallen
short of reason.

Ignorance keeps
the people from
seeing half the evil
that is done them.

The ignorance
in which they have
kept the people
with regard to the
mischief they have
committed serves them
as a haven to committ more.

Apologs
If I have should be
found to have fallen into any
error neither
inclination nor
ability will be
wanting to correct
it.

8. Convicted Perjurer.

7. Common Informer. The
Informers motives
may be
selfish. The
Advocate's you
are sure are so.
But when the
consequences of
an act are uniformly
good,
what matters it
for the instance.

The consequences
which the Advocate
labours to produce
are wrong
in as many instances
as they are
right, and it is
to produce the
wrong that he labours
the hardest
& with the greatest
pleasure.

III. Predilection for Injustice
If the habit of
indifference to
right & wrong
is a bad preparative
to the
station of Judge,
what shall we say
of a predilection
for wrong injustice?

A Surgeon is not
indifferent about
the cure.

The accomplished
Advocate has a
predilection for
the worst cause
as that which
affords the best
market for his
abilities the
best market &
the most splendid
triumph

The accomplished
Judge
hates injustice
with a hatred
which has no
bounds but what his
compassion for
the unjust has
set to it.

Insincerity
Insincerity necessary
– for whatever
are the appearances
of sincerity
he must put
them when he
is insincere – else
he would betray
his cause.

If in private
he could give any
pledge of sincerity
which he could not
in public, this
would not serve for
public

In public his
reasonings will
be as much worth
attending to as those
of another man –
but you can not
depend upon his
facts.

He is much less credible than the
convicted Perjurer.
For a single departure
from truth
may be sufficient
to a man
in the latter class.

Bawd
The studies labours of this
mistress of a girl's boarding-school
and
those of a procuress
are both occupied
upon the same subject:
but neither law nor custom
has not have rendered
the latter station
a necessary step
to the former. In It
is not regard to chastity
though not in with chastity as
regard to with truth
nor to Justice, it
seems to have been
considered the
habit of violating
it and the study
of the means of affecting bringing
about its violation
has not been
rendered a necessary
qualification for
a station the business
of which
is to protect it
afford protection to
that virtue – a
quality so much
admired prized.

Ah! when shall who shall
to see that day when Justice shall be served by
unpolluted hands?
