Discolourment and Disfigurement Two ways in which
Deformation may
produce bring evil on the patient.

Organical pain out of the question, there are
two ways in which a man may be disadvantageously
affected by Deformation: by being render'd
on only on a physical account an object of disgust;
or by being render'd on a moral account
an object of contempt: by enduing him being endued with certain unpleasing
physical qualities: or by serving standing having
it testified of him that he was endued already with certain
unpleasing moral qualities: in a word, by loss
of beauty or by loss of reputation.

Both these losses derive their ill effects they
have on the happiness of the party from that source
of good and evil which we have termed the Moral
Sanction; the voluntary disposition of mankind
in general to bestow on him or withhold from
him their services.

But the efficacy of the punishment is derived in
the one case from natural and universal principles; causes
in the other from principles causes of local
and positive institution.

By rendering him
an object of contempt
on a specific account.

Of the several species ways means of defor producing deformity
or rather change of form in the way of
punishment, there is one which is calculated to
expose a man to a high degree of contempt, without
rendering him contributing any thing at all or at least rendering
contributing very little to render him an object
of disgust. The punishment I mean is that
of stigmatization. By stigmatization a trifling change
