And as the Union of theo kingdoms of England. And Scotland is so near com pleated, and there remains little else to distinguish us at present but the municipal laws of the respective kingdoms, it has been thought advisable to add some remarkable Scots Trials: in which (to do that nation right) are discovered reat learning, elo quenco, and strong reasoning. And indeed as the Civil Law prevai 3 very much there, they have at least as large a field to exercise their arts and learning as our more Southern orators, who are so unalterably attach'd to eir Common Law and it must be admitted, that the Party accus'd has in Scotland all the fair play imaginable he has what Counsel he thinks fit; he has a Copy of his Charge in his own language his Counsel are permitted to inspect the very Depositions against him before he is brought to Trial and they are so_ little in haste to dispatch a state-prisoner, that the. Trial often lasts some months.

Since 'tis observable that the best and bravest of mankind are far from being exempted from Criminal Prosecutions, and that potent malice, or prevailing faction, have too often attempted the most consummate merit; that Learning which shews how life, honour, and innocence are to be defended, when they shall happen to be Injuriously attack'd, will not, 'tis prcsum'd, be thought inferior to that, which instructs us how to defend our loss im ortant rights - And as the Common Law is nothing else but immemorial Custom, an the custom and methods of Trial, and bringing offenders to Punishment, is no inconsiderable branch of that law; and since these, as other Cilstoms, are only to be collected from former Precedents, 'tis something strange, that amongst the numerous Authors of Reports and Institutes, not one has hitherto thought fit to make any considerable Collection of this kind, or thorowly to mctllodize or digest this sort of Learning: nor can any probable reason he assign'd for this neglect, unless they have been deterr'd by the vast trouble and expence it must have been to any private undertaken - As to the Crown Law already extant, 'tis so far from being a compleat Direction, even in the most ordinary Trials, that it affords little more than some imperfect Hints of what the Authors intended. And as to the Doc trine of Impeachments, Trials of Peers by Commission, or in Parliament, Bills of Attainder, and the Customs and Usage of Parliaments, in relation to these Matters: this is a Learning that remains entirely untouch'd, and is only to be collected from Precedents of this nature.
