The British svstem of appointing justices is an example for the world, was a remark made during Mr. G. 1. linlav’s address in Auckland a few nights ago (states the “Star’). America, he said, will never be the country she ought to be while she has elected justices, and till she realises that all her courts of justice must be as free from bias as it is possible to be. That state of affairs could .never, exist while sections of the community, by popular vote, could appoint the judges of the land. The British appointments led to that self-possession, spiritual contemplation, and self-reliance so needful for the judicial mind.
