From Macsulsy's History of England
Judge Jeflreys-TPial OF Baxter,

He (Jefreys) was man Of quick and
vigorous parts, but constitutionally prone to
insolence and the angry passions. When
just emerging from boyhood, he lad risen
into practice at the Old Bailey bar--a bar
where advocates have always used license

Here during many years, his chief business
was to examine and cross-examine the most
hardened niscreants of great capital

bully ever known in his profession. ALI
tenderness for the feelings OF others, all
selfrespect, all sense Of the becoming were
oblterated from his mind. He acquired
boundless command OF the rhetoric in
which the vul gar express hatred and con-
tempt. The profusion Of maledctions and
vituPerative epithets which composed his
vocabulary could hardly have been rvalled
in the fish market or the bear garden. His
countenance and his voice must always
have been unamiable. But these natural
advantages 0or such he seems TO have
thought them) he had improved to such
degree, that there were few who, in his par
oxysns Of rage, could see or hear him
without emotion. Imprudence and ferocity
sat upon his brow. The glare of his eyes
had fascination for the unhappy victim on
whom they were fixed. Yet his brow and
his eye were said to be less terrible than The
savage lines Of his mouth. His veil of
fury las was said by one who had often
heard it) sounded like the thunder of the
judgment day. These qualifications he
carried, while still a young man, from the
bar to the bench. He early became Com.
mon Sergeant, and then Recorder Of London.
As Judge at the city sessions, he exhibited
tho same propensities which afterwards,
in higher post, gained for him an unenvia-
bic Immortality. Already might be remark.

and imploring seemed to titillate him volup.
tuously, and he loved to scare them into fits
by dilating with luxuriant ampli6cation on
all the details Of what they had to suffer.
The trial of Baxter, the celebrated Non.
conformist, supplies an admirable specimen
Of the fashion in which criminal case was

There was not then the intercourse which
now exists between the two classes. Only
very great men were in the habit OF dividing
the year between town and country. Few
esguires came to the capital thrice in their
lives. Nor was it yet the practice Of all
citizens in easy circumstances to breathe the
fresh air of the fields and woods during
some weeks of every summer. A Cock

much as if he had intruded into kraal oil
Hottentots. On the other hand, when the
lord OF Lincolnshire or Shropshire manor
appeared in Fleet-street, he was as easily
distinguished from the resident population
as Turk or Lascar. His dress, his gait,
his accent, the manner in which he stared
at the shops, stumbled into the cutters, ran
against the porters, and stood under the
waterspouts marked him out as an excel
lent subject for the operations Of swindlers
and banterers. Bullies jostled him into the
kennel. Hackney coachmen splashed him
from head to foot. Thieves explored with
perfect security the huge pockets Of bis
hoseman's coat, while he stood entranced
by the splendor Of the Lord Mayors show.
