minor parts of the United Kingdom this acknowledged
best system, and that expence charged upon the
same universal fund — can be sustained in the character
of an objection to the giving to this same major
and more populous part that same benefit.
Supposing Scotland to have its Panopticon
House, and Ireland likewise its Panopticon Penitentiary
House or Houses, then comes the question, where
shall they be respectively placed?
For the answer many words will be not be necessary
to bring to mind the considerations which
oppose a bar to the transference of the convict
population, or any part of the convict population,
of those two minors kingdoms, of either of the,
to the metropolis of the major kingdom.
As to the reasons against any such transference,
though not og the most forcible kind, they are however
so obvious, and so likely to be impressive and
satisfactory, that, in the absence of all considerable
reasons for the alternative they may well be
spared.
Public, sufficiently good at the capitals of the two
minor kingdoms;— difference in respect of religious
rites;— increased difficulty of return after discharge
to their domestic connections;— for hints of reasons
these few words may it is supposed suffice.
