handle is hein.trials/celtri0006 and id is 1 raw text is: CELEBRATED TRIALS, AND Stmariab~l (Sato OP CRIMINAL JURISPRUDENCE, PROM THE EARLIEST RECORDS TO -THE YEAR is25. Tom Annals of Criminal Jurisprudence exhibit human nature in a variety of vositions, at once the most striking, interesting, and affecting. They present tragedies of real life, often heightened in their effect by the grossness of the in- justice, and the malignity of the:prejudices which accompanied them. At the same time real culprits, as original characters, stand forwaid on the canvas of humanity as prominent object for our special study. I have often wondered that the English language contains no book like the Causes Celebre8 of the French, particularly as the openness of our prpceedings renders the records more certain and aetensible, while our public history and domestic conflicts have afforded so many splendid examples of the unfortunate and the guilty. Such a collection, drawn from our own national sources, and varied by references to cases of the continental nations, would exhibit man as he is in action and in principle, and not as he is usually drawn by poets and speculative philobophers.
