General Imprisonment Scheme &c
or fortnight or month, solitude, darkness, and spare diet.[a] Here let a
note of infamy mark stigma be inflicted; but let that stigma
be a temporary one. W It will answer two
purposes: 1st that of example, as encreasing the
apparent punishment: 2d that of security so as by
preventing his escape.
The third kind of Imprisonment is destined
for example only. The end of correction is
precluded: as since the delinquent is never to mix
with society again. Here too for the same purposes as in the former class let a stigma be
inflicted: and let that stigma be perpetual.
Here let the apparent condition of the delinquent
be as miserable as may be and the real as
comfortable as may be. Let the Gentleman occupy himself as
he pleases. Let the yeoman who has an art, exercise
an his art, and let him be a sharer in the
profits. Let the labour of the yeoman who knows has
no art be more moderate than in the temporary
prison.
Gentlemen. Cells upon a plan
