nothing, that are now required in courts Of
record and injustice, (misnamei justice
should all be swept away, and the road to
justice made easy and direct, SO that il can
be travelled by every one, without the need
of costly guides. These gaudy trappings
and coverings hanging over our courts Of

intended to strike the common people with
awe and reverence, fear and trembling as
they approached the lords of justice, and

our republican institutions. Why, let me
ask, was this all important matter entirely

preached much against drunkenness. On
his replying in the affirmative, they insisted
that he should now preach from text Of
their choosing. In vain did he demonstrate
on the unreasonableness Of expecting hin,
to give them discourse without study, and
in such place; they were determined to
take no denial, and the word MALT was Civ
