On the other hand, as to the evil of the
offence, this will also, of course, be greater or less
according to the nature of each offence The
proportion between the one evil and the
other will therefore be different in the case of
each particular offence:- The cases therefore
where punishment is unprofitable on this
ground can by no other means be discovered
than by an examination of each particular
offence.
These considerations ought however at all
times to be present to the mind of the
Legislator whenever he establishes any
punishment. - It is from them that he
will derive his principal reasons for general
amnesties on account of the multitude of
delinquents -. For the preservation of a
delinquent where talents could not be replaced
or whose punishment would excite the
public displeasure, or the displeasure of
foreign powers. —
