commission taken from the number of those entitled to serve
on juries for the year. The rocedure resembled that adopted
in a law-suit. Those who esired the repeal or alteration of
existing laws, or the substitution of new ones, appeared as
accusers; those who desired no change came forward as
defenders. The nomination of this commission ordinarily
took place early in the Attic year, at the third regular
Assembly (Schiimann Ant. of Greece pp. 389--90 ET. , and
Gilbert Gk. Const. Ant. i 3362:301 ET. ) Owing to the
critical position of affairs, Demosthenes here urges the im-
mediate appointment of an extraordinary commission for the
repeal of certain laws.
Bartel (Dem. Antn'ige p. 536) holds that the orator's proposal for the
appointment of vonoee? -ml. is not to be taken seriously as a formal and
definite motion. Such a proposal could not legally be put to an immedi-
ate vote, and, owing to the difficulty as well as the lengthy procedure and
uncertain result of a legislative trial, it was of no practical use for the
immediate emergency. He considers it probable that, by showing how it
was possible to make use of the theoric fund, the orator was really putting
pressure on his audience with a view to make them better inclined to
carry out the measures which had been resolved. But these notes of
warning were uttered in vain, for Olynthus had already fallen before the
citizen force had reached the place. The proposals and counsels of
Demosthenes had as little result now as two years before; it may even be
conjectured that we are indebted to this fact for the preservation of these
masterpieces of his art.
