When you address yourselves to a new Statute, after having considered the general principle of the proposed measure, the bill is subjected to the process of committee, and there it constantly happens that things are grafted upon a statute, under misconcep- tion, at variance altogether from the original con- ception of the framer. Your new acts are patches on an old garment. You provide for the emergency, but you pay not the least regard to the question whether the piece you put into the old gar

Such being the mode of your legis- lation, it would be utterly impossible that your Statute Book should be other than it is — a mass of enact- ments and of statutes which are in a great degree discordant and irreconcilable.

So Lord Langdale, speaking in the same assembly in 1836 :— " Without a proper guide, the Parliament proceeds from year to year blundering in legislation, accumula- ting one statute upon another, without system and without order ; and the statutes themselves are often framed in such a manner as almost to defy interpreta- tion, daily provoking observations in the courts of 218 PEmCIPLES OF REFORM.
