Speaking of Detention

In preparing for class this afternoon, I just happened to be reading Jefferson's letter to James Madison of Dec. 20, 1787. He's expressing what he does "not like" about the proposed constitution:

First, the omission of abill of rights, providing clearly, and without the aid of sophism, for freedom of religion, freedom of the press, protection against standing armies, restriction of monopolies, the eternal and unremitting force of the habeas corpus laws, and trials by jury in all matters of fact triable by the laws of the land, and not by the laws of nations.
