		It is certain however, that there was no such great popular prejudice against lawyers in New York as in the other Colonies; although, in 1683, the same legislation was passed as elsewhere, forbidding sheriffs, constables, clerks and justices of the peace from acting as attorneys in their courts.
		The smallness of the Colonial Bar is shown by the fact that in the sixty-eight years between 1709 and 1776 only one hundred and thirty-six had been licensed as attorneys by the Governor.
		The practise of the law was evidently engaged in chiefly by pettifoggers and by the court Officers, for, as in the other Colonies, statutes were passed, in 1676 and 1694, forbidding justices of the peace, sheriffs, deputies, clerks and messengers from practising as attorneys.

	Utility, Property, and Political Participation: James Mill on Democratic Reform, by Murray Milgate (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		His doubts arose from an obvious consideration, namely, that the "people of England, who are governors, have an interest opposed to that of the people of India, who are the governed, in the same manner as the interest of despotic sovereign is opposed to that of his people" (ibid., 239).
		He was led, therefore, to wonder whether the "salutory dread of insurrection" was all that remained to check "misrule and oppression" in that country (ibid., 241).
		While it is easy enough to understand why his working-class Radical detractors should have found in that clause grounds sufficient for their determined opposition, it is imperative that Mill's position not be confounded with that of other middle-class reformers of the day.
