to adopt: what kind of work employment use the labour the delinquent shall be

in this view by the Author of the Principles of Penal

2. The being sent to Tunis, Algiers, and other
Mahometan ports, for the redemption of Christian
Slaves. This for "the more enormous offenders."

3. Thirdly the being "compelled to dangerous expeditions":

4. The being sent to establish new colonies, factories
and settlements on the coasts of Africa, &
on small islands for the benefit of navigation.

On each of these proposals I will make a few remarks.

Dock Yards, Stannaries, Saltworks, mines, and
public buildings of the Kingdom. As to Against so much

of Day-labourers. As to so much of it as
