To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This can only be accom- plished by despatching their men out of hand; and haste is always cruel, rarely just. The charge of the judge to the grand jury is a more important matter than people generally ima- gine. It is treated as a matter of course : or at best as an opportunity afforded once in so many months for a great functionary to make a clever speech on a very favourable subject. But it is much more than this. It frequently gives a tone to the whole proceedings of the court. From the gran...d jury it is reflected upon the petty jury, and affects them more than it does the former. If the judge represents strongly the serious increase of crime upon the calendar, and urges the necessity of vindicating the law and rigidly administering justice, the Aristides spirit I have talked of becomes very rampant, and you are sure to hear, "Guilty, my lord," very frequently repeated in the court. If, on the contrary, he congratulates the county on the small amount of crime that has occun-ed since last he was seated in that place, and de- clares that there are but one or two serious 176 A WHIM, AND ITS cases for their consideration, the worthy jurymen think, when there are so few, it may be just as well to let the poor fellows get off, as it is cold work hanging without company.
