Territorial Confinement
By Territorial Confinement the whole earth
stands divided as it were with respect to the delinquent
into two commonly very unequal districts: one which he is permitted
to be in the other which he is not permitted
to be in. The first may be stiled the Locus
ad quem of in quo: the other the locus a
quo. If the whole of The locus ad quem
lies in or out of the dominions of the state of which
he is a member. If the whole of it lies out
of those dominions it may be stiled Banishment. [If the whole of it lies within them, it
may be stiled Relegation Quasi-Imprisonment.] The word Territorial expression Quasi
Confinement Imprisonment may be restrained to sign by denote the
case where the whole of it lies within them.
In this case, all the punishment may require
a diferent denomination according as the place
in which the his ordinary residence was at the
time of the sentence is in the locus a in
quo or not. Where it is, the punishment has
not yet that I know of acquired any peculiar
name, where (it is) not, it the punishment has been stiled Relegation.
This term was in use in t among the
Romans and is now among the French. The Parliament
of Paris, for instance, is said to have been has been
relegated to Pontoise.
