If the expence of each prisoner to this promiscuous
intercourse be considered as a part of the punishment
as such it scarcely operates at all among the most
abandoned that is upon those who stand most in
need of punishment. On the contrary with
respect to them it is a circumstance that renders
their imprison imprisonement theless afflictive
as the more since the perpetual tumult with
which they are surrounded and are taking part
