that degree of elevation which is deemed essential to the health of so
numerous an assemblage of persons, so subjected to confinement: this
decision is given, with respect to the sort of place by a subsequent
committee of the House of Commons, with respect to the individual
place, by that same Committee (see the report of 1784) in confirmation
to that given by the twelve Judges, added to the Lord Chancellor,
the Speaker and the first Magistrates of the Metropolis:
the measure had already been sanctioned and the price of the place expressed assessed
under the Act of Parliament by the verdict of a Jury.
An improvement is afterwards devised in this system, an improvement
deemed such in spite of predilection and every personal motive, by the
very persons (for such is their generosity and public spirit) whom it
throughts throws out of office. It is deemed such, and as such adopted and patronized,
by an Administration, with whom the author had not the honour
of the most distant previous connection or prospect of connection whatsoever.
This improvement can not, any more than the original plan,
do without a spot to rest upon. The building to be erected in conformity
to this improvement must then be set down in some Neighbourhood,
and that a Neighbourhood possessed of the above mentioned advantages.
What then is to be done? Should Shall the establishment be turned off, on account
of this improvement, from a more eligible to a less eligible neighbourhood,
or for want of a Neighbourhood that might like to receive it, it is is it to supposed
that an establishment of such public importance should will be set aside
altogether?
A person prison can not expect exist, but it must exist in some Neighbourhood:
it cannot exist in a town, but it must exist in a crowded
Neighbourhood, a Neighbourhood beyond comparison more exposed to the objection
