from a further prosecution of their work by the expenses of the publication
and the limited sale of the same. And whereas, the court of appeals have of
late years induced their opinions to writing thereby rendering clear of all doubt
and ambiguity, those principles which regulate and protect the lives, liberty and
property of the people, and it being ascertained that the said decisions cannot
be reported and published by individuals without the aid of the legislature--
