Laborious Punishment examined.

2. In point of Frugality to the state Laborious Punishment
considered is as by itself little liable to objection as any thing other
can be. I say consider'd by itself: for when coupled
be with Imprisonment or Prison Imprisonment as
it in can hardly but be in the case of Public Servitude, it is attended
with those expences to the Public which have been noticed
under the article of Imprisonment. These however
are not to be charged to the account
of the Laborious part of the Punishment: so that although
these expences are to be set against the profit
in considera comparing the complex punishment of Imprisonment
coupled with hard labour to any other
punishment, the advantage which Laborious Punishment
has on this score over simple Imprisonment
is quite a clear one. The Odor But the
former of these two punishments though separable
from the latter in idea is not separable in practise.
Imprisonment may be made to subsist
without labour : but forced labour can not be made
to subsist without Imprisonment. The advantage
then which should Servitude has in this respect
when compared with Imprisonment ceases when compared
with any other mode of Punishment. However
the profit gained by the one part is enough, under
good management, to do more than balance the
expence
