Panopticon. J.B. to Penitentiary Committee. Letter III.
Country Convicts

II Objection 2.d
II. Objection 2d : Inordinate accumulation of convicts for whom 24
provision will be to be found after discharge.

Answer. upon the Panopticon plan, there will be the
Subsidiary Establishment, open to as meany as may
choose to take the benefit of it. Some will, some will
not:— but whatever may be the proportion of the one number
to the other, and whatever may be the sum of the two
numbers, the exclusive choice of the metropolis does not,
to my apprehension, present itself in the shape of
an inconvenience.

On the character of a reservoir for the influx
in question, the option lies between the metropolis
and some country town.— some other town within
the Circuits of South Britain. The metropolis
will, it is true, already have to provide for the
influx from its own Panopticon. But, taking into
account the magnitude of the influx in both
cases, compare the magnitude of the map of population reservoir
into which the influx will have to discharge
itself in this case, (—say in round numbers
a million) with the magnitude of the largest map reservoir
into which it can be set to dis—charge
itself in the case of any other such Town—say 80,000:—
By this comparison, all apprehension on this score,
will, it should seem, will be dissipated.

III Objection 3. Remoteness of the Convicts from their respective 24
desired abodes at the time of discharge.


Answer. 1. Merely for the purpose of facilitating, on the
part of prisoners after their discharge, the return to their
