Principles, &c

Note (a) continued
When this other paragraph, about these about the "other convicts" is brought to view, then
it is, that it becomes evident enough (to him at least whose hard
lot it is to dig to the bottom) that the [+]
object above described delineated is not the object referred to
by the former paragraph as that which with
reference to the one characterized by the word "principally"
is the subordinate one.

What now appears is that the object meant
by the word principally as the principal object
is compared of such transportable Convicts only
as the Courts Gaols can when contain the period in
question and that any such as these can contain
from no part of that principal object:

That the object which is the subordinate
object with reference to the above principal one principal object
as above marked out, is composed of such
of the untransportable Convicts as the Gaols in
question can not contain.

In other words the The opposition in view as between "principal" and subordinate
is — not between such transportable convicts as
the Gaols can not contain and such as is transportable
convicts as they can contain — but between
such transportable convicts as the Gaols can not
contain and such transportable Convicts as can
the Gaols can not contain: for that, as to such Convicts of both
classes as the Gaols can contain are they altogether out
of the question: some of these are meant to be resigned to the Penitentiary
House in either paragraph.

[+] construction this part
upon the meaning I have
of the word principally thus sacrificed to
is the only one which it
was meant to convey
by those who used it
and that in other
words the consequently
when the question is
as between such transportable Convicts as
the Gaols can not
contain, and such transportable
Convicts as
they can not contain
the word principally
has no application
and ought therefore and on that occasion
to prevent misapplication
had better
therefore be omitted.
