Letter 3d

I. Pentientiary System.

4. To comfort, for the same reasons as to health, eminently
favourable;
as also by security against from
uneasiness from quarrels
and oppressions: saving
always the salutary
discomfort resulting from
the necessary discipline.

5. To reformation eminently
favourable
, in respect
of the inviolable sobriety
the select aggregation, the
instances of occupation,
and the subjection to inspection,
more or less uninterrupted, according to
the plan of architecture &
management.

6. To incapacitation for
fresh offences during the
penal term compleatly
effectual

7. To prevention of fresh
offences after the penal
term eminently conducive
in respect of example as well as reformation.

8. To economy, supremely
favourable
; by containing
of profitable occupation,
mixture of light with
heavy work, almost unlimited
choice of the
most profitable work,
and greater or less facility
of inspection.

II. Hulk system

4. To comfort, eminently
unfavourable
; by reason
of the promiscuous
aggregation in a
crowded space: under
exposure to uneasiness
from quarrels and
oppressions.

5. To reformation,
eminently unfavourable
by reason of the promiscuous & unbounded
association, and the
ascendant naturally
gained by the most
corrupted characters.

6. To incapacitation
for fresh offences during
the penal term, effectual
for the most part.

7. In respect of fresh
offences after the
penal term, little
preventive
in the
way of example:
rather conducive than
preventive, by corruption
instead of reformation.

8. To economy imperfectly
favourable
;
by want of light
work, for the weakly
and to mix with
heavy work.

III. N.S. Wales System

4. To comfort supremely
unfavourable
; — by the
universal insecurity in
respect of property; as
well as in respect of
uneasiness from quarrels
and oppressions.

5. To reformation supremely
unfavourable
, by reason
of the pernicious and
unbounded association,
joined to much opportunity
of sloth and to unbounded
drunkenness.

6. In respect of offences
during the penal term
rather conducive than
incapacitating.

7. In respect of fresh offences
after the penal term,
altogether unpreventive
in the way of example:
supremely conducive, by
consumate corruption
instead of reformation.

8. To economy supremely
adverse
; by the presence
of every causes of expence
and the absence of
every source of profit
and frugality.
