To the case first mentioned
the prevention of it

Secret intercourse obviated.
In the other
case that of

Partialities obviated.

In both cases,
publicity is the secret
remedy. But in the
case of where last
case the operation efficiency of

precarious than in the
first: by being rendered
public if made an
intercourse application which is forbidden

In so far as any such intercourse is necessary to the
production of the mischievous effect, to the preventing of it
nothing more is necessary than the prevention of such intercourse
or what comes to the same thing, the preventing it from being covered

mischievousness of it is susceptible of proof you may punish the rendering it: but
what you can not prove is — that without that same prospect it would not have
been rendered.
