Indirect Legislation
Satisfying
With regard to persons remaining under the
suspicion of crimes which can have not been proved
the difficulty will be to determine whether they
shall be compellable to aggregate themselves to enter into such an establishment
one of these working parties, or only receivable
upon their own spontaneous application. Strict and
inflexible
justice seems to dictate reject the former course:
but upon the principles of expediency and humanity I question whether
it ought not receive admitt of a justification. The argument
against it is forcible: but more so in form, than
substance. Either a man is guilty or he is not: if
he is, punish him with the regular punishment
if not why punish him at all?"
