Answer. Negatur
antecedens
.—
The vexation uncured,
property tax to any amount
better than
Poor Rate.

Thence negatur consequens.

30. 47
This propensity will
surely have its limits
To save the trouble
and responsibility a
Minister problem man would not
for example change
the Poor Rates with
double the expence necessary,
in the other
case. p.16.

31. 48
Per J.B. In the close
mode upon the small
scale, expence more
than double to do in
the open mode on the

Between expence as
well as management on
the two modes the experiment
may soon be made.

Of the open mode in
Temporary Female
Panopticon, Committee
recommending, Administration
promptly
adopting, within
a twelve month. p.17.

33. 50
Of the close mode
so far as concerns building
stocking and official
establishment the expence

established by the
Committee.

1. Improved Prisons
how many.
2. Maximum numbers
calculated for oin
each.
3. Average number
habitually confined in
each.
4. Expence of building
&c. in each. p.17.

34. 51
By this enquiry, recommendation
of
the experimental
Panopticon need not be
stopped. p18.

35. 52
Grand difference not
between the open mode
in the distant stituations,
but between the
open & close modes.
p.19.

36. 53

As to this, dates are
not altogether wanting

1. Since 1779. Counties
with prisons improved
so many.
3. Counties, to which

association, shall
waivers be simply
given or obligation
added, & how?

38. 554
N.B Experimental
Panopticon successful,
propensity to associate

Expence of close mode
suppose it proved to
be some number of
times as great as do
of open do,—would administration,
—would
the local authorities,—
would the contributors
taxed by the local authorities

Proposed by J.B. only that,

for experiment close
mode may be kept back
one year. p22.
