Quasi-Imprisonment, Relegation and Banishment.

This is only preferring Persons of this turn of mind prefer indefinite indeterminate & unlimited pleasures of
expectation to determinate and therefore limited pleasures
of possession. The conduct of misers has no other
source

From p.8 Note (1)

Instances of Definite Banishment are
what one would not expect to find frequent in any
system of Legislation. In Banishment the object in general is to get rid of the
malefactor; and what becomes of him afterwards
is not minded. If it were it avoid the circumstance an object of choice
with the Government what country the delinquent should
betake himself to, the circumstances that could not but serve to serve to determine such a choice would naturally be such as were of
a temporary nature. This accordingly was the
case with an Act of the British Parliament which
furnishes the only instance that occurrs to me
of a punishment of this nature. By Stat. 20
Geo: 2. c. 46. It is made a capital Felony without
for Rebels under Transportation The King is
empower'd to commute the punishment for incurred by
Transp to be persons engaged in the then late Rebellion into Transportation to America, and
the persons thus dealt with are made subject to
the pains of capital Felony not only as usual in case
of their returning to any part of Great Britain
or Ireland, but besides that in case of their going into any
part of the dominions of France or Spain: nations
with whom the British was then at war.
