DISPOSAL of ACQUITTED CRIMINALS. 1

It may be averred without much danger of exaggeration, that what from the respectable scruples scrupulosity & tendency
of Juries, what from the defect of Evidence in not coming up to the strictly legal point of demonstration,
at least x/y + + many the acquittal the defer for a year back. that are tried are returned back into Society under a moral certainty
of their becoming continuing a nuisance to it. Gangs are indeed reduced but very rarely extirpated
a remnant is Still even left behind to be as a center of morbid secretion: The vessel is lightened, but never fully
discharged: dregs are still left behind to continue the pestilential <add>never ceasing</add> fermentation. [without end.] It must be a mortifying right task to a Judge zealous for <add>to the interests of Society</add> to dismiss wretches from the Bar under the full assurance of having them in a short time return laden with additional crimes

If this inconvenience in all it's present magnitude is entailed by the nature of
things upon Society, we have nothing left but to submitt to it with patience — But there
is I think, a remedy which would go a very considerable way towards the curing of it, &
which has less hardship & inequity than what frequently attends a bold vigorous <add>great <add>radical</add></add> stroke of Legislation, & much less
than one at least in particular which we submitt to at present.
