be_v elect_v for_o the_o next_o year_n object_n 1._o the_o many_o objection_n that_o i_o can_v foresee_v will_v be_v make_v against_o this_o constitution_n be_v that_o it_o thwart_v that_o most_o excellent_a order_n of_o our_o english_a jury_n answ._n 1._o i_o answer_v that_o i_o hope_v there_o be_v no_o english_a man_n more_o in_o love_n with_o jury_n than_o myself_o but_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o common_a way_n of_o trial_n do_v not_o well_o reach_v the_o variety_n and_o strangeness_n of_o merchant_n case_n especial_o in_o relation_n to_o foreign_a affair_n answ._n 2._o what_o better_a jury_n can_v a_o merchant_n hope_v for_o than_o twelve_o able_a and_o honest_a merchant_n choose_v by_o the_o collective_a body_n of_o the_o whole_a city_n and_o such_o as_o shall_v all_o of_o they_o stand_v upon_o their_o good_a behaviour_n to_o be_v turn_v out_o with_o ignominy_n the_o next_o year_n if_o they_o do_v not_o equal_a right_n to_o all_o man_n object_n 2._o the_o admit_v of_o no_o appeal_v from_o a_o court-merchant_n seem_v too_o arbitrary_a i_o answer_v while_o we_o choose_v our_o judge_n ourselves_o for_o merchant_n case_n and_o may_v remove_v they_o ourselves_o in_o my_o opinion_n they_o can_v be_v no_o more_o too_o arbitrary_a than_o too_o much_o power_n can_v be_v give_v to_o referee_n when_o both_o party_n desire_v a_o end_n of_o their_o difference_n beside_o if_o their_o power_n be_v not_o great_a the_o many_o design_n of_o cheap_a speedy_a and_o short_a issue_n will_v be_v lose_v but_o if_o it_o shall_v please_v the_o parliament_n there_o may_v be_v in_o the_o act_n a_o appeal_n reserve_v to_o the_o house_n of_o lord_n the_o money_n condemn_v to_o be_v first_o pay_v or_o deposit_v before_o the_o appeal_n be_v allow_v chap._n vii_o concern_v naturalisation_n that_o a_o act_n of_o naturalisation_n of_o stranger_n will_v tend_v to_o the_o advancement_n of_o trade_n and_o increase_v of_o the_o value_n of_o the_o land_n of_o this_o kingdom_n be_v now_o so_o general_o own_v and_o assent_v to_o by_o all_o degree_n of_o man_n among_o we_o that_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o a_o short_a time_n will_v produce_v some_o act_n or_o act_n of_o parliament_n to_o that_o purpose_n i_o have_v therefore_o think_v it_o not_o impertinent_a to_o note_v some_o few_o particular_n which_o if_o not_o wary_o prevent_v may_v deprive_v we_o of_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o fruit_n hope_v for_o by_o so_o good_a a_o design_n viz._n one_a the_o privilege_n of_o encorporated_a city_n and_o to_n two_o more_o especial_o the_o society_n of_o
