Note
English Judges cannot in strictness of speech
be stiled independent in either any point of view,
either to a good purpose or to a bad one. They
are not to a good purpose: they are not independent
they are but half independent of the
Crown. They are independent all but the Chancellor as to what engages concerns
juries: they are not none of them independent
as to what concerns hopes. All but the highest
have the hopes of preferment advancement in the line of judicature
the highest has the hopes of advancement in
the peerage. All Pursue the hope of favours infinite
in variety and degree receivable through the
channel of the family and connection. Most of
their hopes can the latter more especially cannot
in the nature of things be even if reached
cut off: but there are no hopes of which may not
be stripped of all seductive by the counter effect
of a state of dependence on the people.
