Punishment
(2)
Thus much as to the existence of the government, and
the continuance of their respective masses of power in
the hands of the several constitutive authorities: it is only
in the case of a particular class of public offences viz. offences
against government, and a particular division of that
class that the any punishment of in any shape can with
reference to the constituted authorities persons so situated be termed with have any such effect as
that of an act of propriety one act of self-defence.
But if in lieu of the constituted authorities; viz the
members of the body governing part of the community, the
members of the community at large on the occasion in question be the
persons considered as the persons by whom the operation
is performed, then is all punishments an act of self-defence
in relation to as against the particular species of evil
with which the offence thus punished is pregnant:
an act of tending to defend the community against a
offences of the sort in question with their attendant evils
viz by means of reformation, disablement and determent
one or more of them, as above.
