have been confined. Keeping the several machines fed with the several
materials on which they were to operate - applying the material to
the tool and the tool to the material, during the progress of the operation,
in a direction predetermined by the channel formed for that purpose, -
for keeping up the requisite motion, turning a wheel or a winch by
hand, in cases in which the same operation, or cluster of connected operations,
could not with more advantage be performed, upon a more enlarged
scale, by means of a Steam engine- in these may be seen so many
samples, of operations, to which, even from the very first, the most
indolent and unpracticed idler, could not but be, in a considerable
degree, competent. Among them are some, which, in many instances
might even, like the operations in cotton works, be allotted to
children of a tender age.
The reason of my fixing upon the third branch of damage
for the sole basis of my claim, to the provisional dereliction of the two others,
or not any rate of the second is the advantage, such as it is, of being able,
from actual experience, to obtain some sort of evidence, inadequate
as it is, instead of being reduced to trust the estimate altogether
upon so unfavourable and unpromising a ground, as that of mere hope
and anticipation of that which at one time was to have been, but is not now to be the future. I say inadequate: for the
main ground of expectation resting on the abovementioned inventions
inventions unknown and unpracticed any any where else, all the experience
thus derivable from any other source, is confined to the ratio between the
profit from labour - from labour employed without that advantage - and the expence
of the prison establishments, maintenance of prisoners included, in which
such ordinary labour has been employed.
For this purpose, the first thing to be done will be - to find
for the year's profit, whatever it may come to be set at, a multiplier
a multiplier expression of the number of the years, during which, had the
Contract been fulfilled by Government, the profit have been reaped: viz.
