Panopticon Bill Choice Reasons

The Supervisors who were to but to have taken a
trip at the place now and then, chose to have
a pleasant place to go to look at, and it was allowed but right
they should: for they were Members of Parliament
and men of influence. The case is now altered;
the man who saves the £250,000 £200,000 which they would were to
have spent must expect no such place, though
it be to set up his staff there: for he is not in
Parliament and he has no influence. As to the
exigencies of the establishment, they remain the
same: Vicinity to the Capital and to the River,
Elevation of the ground are not of less material importance
now than then to the facility publicity of general inspection and or to the health
of the prisoners: it is the difference therefore
between individual and individual, between interest
and no interest, between favour and no favour,
that has been the real cause of the change.

Such might be expected to be the language: it seems
to arise naturally enough out of what any body may see of
the facts. I state it with the less reserve, knowing what as
I have such good occasion to know, how destitute it is of
would be of foundation in the real dispositions of Administration.
But to form an opinion for the public, we
must put ourselves in the place of the public: to whom
realitiesy is are nothing, any farther than as they are it may have been certified
by appearance.
