Our three courts of law the Queen's Bench, the Common Pleas, and the Exchequer for the sake of the fees extended an originally contracted sphere into the entire sphere of litigation. Boni judicis est ampliare jursdictionem, went the old saying; or, in English, "It is the mark of a good judge to augment the fees of his Court," his own income, and the income of his subordinates.

Boni judicis est ampliare justitiam that is, to make open and liberal justice. But in criminal matters this parity of reason, and these analogies, ever have been, and ever ought to be, shunned. Whatever is incident to a court of judicature, is necessary to the House of Commons, as judging in elections.

Boni judicis, says the old maxim, ampliare jurisdictionem. To compare small things with great, a committee of this kind has been found of the highest value in institutions where there are various departments requiring large expenditure.

I know it is commonly said, boni judicis est ampliare juridictionem. But I take that to be better advice which was given by the Lord Chancellor Bacon upon swearing a judge; That he would take care to contain the jurisdiction of the court within the ancient mere-stones without removing the mark.
