Principiis obsta.—To oppose the beginning of
an evil is to stop its progress, and defeat its ef-
fect ; but the-evil should exist before we attack,
or attempt to baffle it.
The question is, whether a set of men, who,
under a certificate, practice as Conveyancers, is to
be objected against because they are not Barris-
ters or Attornies ; nor ever in a course of pro-
baiion to he either ? The science of Law is open
to every one, and each may have an equal share
of knowledge therein, from, aft equal share'of cul-
tivation ; but is it to be expected that those will
sow who cannot reap ; or, that' those who have
never sowed shall be permitted to reap ? It would
infringe on the well informed, and affect their
profits. -Many young men who have been pupils.
to eminent preceptors, have practised under
the Bar for some time, either as Law or Equity
Draftsmen, and Conveyancers, and, have been
called to it only to enable them to sign proceed-
ings, and class as persons actually in the Profes-
sion, as before they were preparing for 4.-
1 hese are regularly bred. It is against those
who have not been bred to it at all, that die com-
plaint lies ; those who have been tradesmen, arti-
ficers, broken merchants, accouctants, annuity
brokers, money lenders, &c. who ore incapable of
drawing a sufficient assurance. Shall such cha-
racters intrude themselves into 14. learned Profes-
sion who have no learning, and share its business
and profits too ? is a question proper to be solved
by the Legislature, and shall be further consider-
ed lay
