I am come now to the article of pecuniary economy; and as this
is the great rock upon which the original Penitentiary-plan, I understand,
has split,
I cannot resist
the temptation of throwing out a few hints relative to the mode of management,
which I look upon as the most ellgible in this view, but you will see which
could not, as you will see have been established with any thing like the
advantage, upon any other ground than that of my Brother Inspection
principle.
To come to the point at once, I would do the whole by contract.
I would farm out the profits, the no profits, or if you please the
losses, to him who, being in other respects unexceptionable, offeredg the
best terms. Undertaking an enterprire new in its extent, in the discription
of the persons to be subjected to his management, and in many other
circumstances, his success in it, if he does succeed, may be regarded in the
light of an invention: and rewarded accordingly, just as success in
other inventions is rewarded, by the profit which a monopoly secured
by patent enables a man to make; and that, in proportion to the
success which constitutes their merit.
