Note to p.
(a) In addition to this £26 9s, or this £37, the whole
produce and value of the whole labour of extracted or extractible from the convicts, while in their state of bondage at least may be considered as so much thrown
away away; +. + or if not considered as thrown away, then whatever may be the value of it ought at any rate to be added to the account of expences, since that account is lessened, and reduced to those sums respectively by the amount of it. On the Panopticon plan, one fourth part of their the produce
were of each mans labour would, without any additional expence to Government, have been employed
partly in insuring to him a maintenance in his declining
years — partly in affording up administering present comforts
to himself and family when he has one: — the
other three fourths would have been employd partly in
furnishing the capital necessary for the setting to work such
Convicts as should choose to resort to the establishment
for employment after the expiration of their respective
terms — partly in affording the subsistence and recompence
to the various of persons employ'd in this the way of management
and superintendence.
