Laborious Punishment – Eden

In the next place would [the Mahometan slaveholders
purchase upon any terms] persons who
from for the credence they had given of their dispositions
to do mischief had become the outcasts from their
own country? (If they would paid purchasers be purchased upon
any terms by among the Mahometan Slaveholders? If
they would, they would hardly be valuable upon the
same terms with equal terms with (unblemished) men of unblemished
characters.

The 3d proposal is that of the convicts some "be
"compelled to dangerous expeditions; meaning I suppose
military warlike expeditions. This lies open to the following
objections.

In the 1st place If convicts be sent upon any such expeditions,
they must either go alone, or with honest men
in their company. If alone, no dependance can
be placed upon an expedition so conducted manned. If
honest men are to go with them, either the expedition service
will be too dangerous for the honest men, or not
dangerous enough to be sufficiently formidable to the
reprobates. At any rate the punishment will be
open to the objection of inequality [want of equability.]
Besides this In the next place there is the same danger as in the case of miners of
its stamping an odium on the service.

The fourth proposal is to send them to "establish
"new colonies, factories and settlements on the coasts
I mention these only as so many perhaps,
of Africa, and on small islands for the British
navigation
