Panopt. Compensation Claim III. Contract
§.7. Other Rates
(7) 7 Observations
In the Panopticon case of the Panopticon, setting aside
the such of the prisoners as would have been be continued in the
exercise of their own trades, those which would have been
put to the carrying on the new-invented operations, would,
even from the first, have found in the simplicity of those
same operations, means of acquiring considerable earnings at periods
far earlier than those which have place in the instance
of those of the ordi general run of ordinary trades, in which any very profitable degree of
dexterity and skill is not seldom acquired but at the end of
a more or less considerable course of experience — and thus [+] [+] a course of no
less than length of
than 7 years, according
to the notion to
which the system
of obligatory Apprenticeships
owes
its birth and continuance.
And thus,
in this class of instances, whereby comparative earliness of commencement
been added would have been added to comparative length of continuance.
S
As to those who would have been continued in the
exercise of their own trades, by the supposition they would
have come in already endowed with their full degree of compliment of skill and dexterity from
the very first.
Of the average comparative length of continuance in the two
species of prisons, some account kind of statement estimate
might perhaps, upon investigation, be deduced. But
as, in the first place, this inquiry, successful or
unsuccessful, would at any rate consume time and
labour; and as in the next place, though under in relation to this
point the success was ever so compleat, still, the
to any attempt to calculate the correspondent
Rates of Profit, a correspondent great difficulties would be
found opposing themselves, it seemed better, after
affording the general indication thus afforded, to forbear attempting
to trouble the Arbitrators with any such debates,
a unless, in their view of the matter, it should prove
to be necessary, with relation to some specific and practical
ne purpose.
