PUNISHMENT END.
I would not with the Author of the Commentaries have laid down, that in lacking established to manifest <add>asserted in the teeth of observation experience <add>of report</add></add> cognizance
of all wrongs or unlawful acts, along with the view of securing to the public
by the benefit of society by preventing or punishing "the Law has that of giving" redress to
the party injured by either restoring to him his right if possible; or by giving him
