clans. For It's judgments upon political
questions adjourned into it from the tur-
burlent halls Of legislation and the COM
itia Of the people, to command the gene
raj assent aRd induce willing submission,
the judges must themselves be above all
suspicion Of political passion. To forbid
the delivery Of dissenting opinions, and
even the diyulgation by a Judge Of the
fact that he did dissent from the opinion
Of the court in any case, would be a long
step towards this, since it would
deter politicians enamoured Of
themselves, and vain Of their eonsis-
tency, from seeking the respon-
sibilities and honors Of the ermine and
to reduce as speedily as possible the num-
her Of judges to five at most, sitting in
no other forum, and exercising no other
than appellate powers, would probably
end in effeeting the same object, by
abolishing the system Of giving each
section Of country its representative on
the bench. 1t is at least certain that
some reform Is needed, since it is falling
into decay and disrepute, its opinions on
constitutional questions being regarded
not as calm interpretations of the Great
Charter, but as the utterance Of opinions
formed by its members before they were
judges, and tenaeiously adhered TO on
the bench.

The life Of a State, like the life of q
man, consists Of episodes. AS we stand
near to the grave and look back along
the paths Of our life, we wonder at seeing
during how little Of our time we have
advanced on straight lines toward the
leading objects, great or small, for which
we imagined ourselves to live. Contin-
ually we have either wandered from the
curse determined on, or been either
seduced or forced to follow by-paths,
circuitous and crooked. 1t never was
otherwise with any man, o. with any
State. 1t always seems to us that we
have, for the most part, occupied our
selves too much with matters and affairs
Of small Importance and yet, by what
inexplicable chance, the most
trivial circumstances, occurring solely in
consequence Of these accidental aberra-
tons, have often strangely tended to
secure or remove beyond our reach the
chief objects at which we aim. No
wonder the ancients made Fate supre%e
even over the gods!
