For extracting labour by dint of punishment
substraction of food seems the properest instruments
of compulsion that can be employed:
For
1. It produces its utmost effect without any injury
to health
2. It does not, like whipping or any such mechanical
punishment alarm the spectator with
the appearance of torture or the idea of cruelty.
3. It will before any lasting mischief has been produced
afford indications sufficient to enable a
man to on form a good judgement of its probable
efficacy, that is of its justice.
4. It exhibits nothing of that violence which is
apt to excite indignation and provoke obstinacy,
as is the case with most of the applications understood acute punishments like whipping, and
such as are commonly understood
under the name of torture. Its tendency is
on the contrary rather to break the spirits
than to raise them.
