mode of Imprisonment the of given constant uninterrupted means affords
to persons at large to witness the effects of this
mode of punishment wold greatly add to
its effects in the way of example. What is true
however is true is that though the prisoners
themselves are not visib seen the prison is,
and the mere sight of this abode of misery
is sufficient to awaken in the minds of persons
on whom it is most desirable to produce the
such an effect should be produced, the most
salutary terror. The buildings employed for this
purposed ought to be marked characterized by a
distinct species of architecture which calculated to convey
to the mind the ideas of confinement & constraint.
be with the persons in that would
be impracticable & which should say present to
the minds the abode of criminals.
6. Simplicity of description. This Property it
possesses in perfection. It is a mode of punishment
intelligible to persons of all ages of and of all
capacities. Confinement is an idea evil that even
every body can comprehend, and of which every
body has had more or less experience. The
word the Prison then at once excited all the ideas that
belong to it that upon the occasion it is desired
to convey.
Let us here stop to examine that the three
auxiliary punishments that under special
circumstances & for a limited time may be made
to accompany afflictive imprisonment: These may viz.
be comprized under the three peculiar appellations
of Solitude Darkness & Hard-diet. Their distinguishing
merit is in their subserviency to
Reformation.
