I. General Objections &c.
6
Points enumerated, in
respect of which Panopticon
(the open mode) it
is stated as incompetent:
if so, observe how
much more so the
close mode inseparable
from the Hulks.
1. Securing good provisions.
2. Keeping out "luxuries"
(Whaat are pernicious
when fermented liquors
are excluded?)
3. Securing instruction
moral & religious
4
March 1812
General Heads of Objection to the Penitentiary Report 31 May 1811, as to the extinction.
I. General objections
to the Report.
1.
Sole object at heart,
setting aside Panopticon
the others
but means to that
end.
In the course of 18
years, means and
pretences have accumulated
for doing
that, which after
4 years, to 1798,
Treasury could not
find face to do.
2.
Arguments all
vague: no notice
taken of Mr B's
books in which they
stood pre-refuted.
3.
Supposed imperfections,
how soever remediable,
urged as so
many peremptory
objections.
No remedy every suggested.
4.
Presumption throughout
against the eulogized
person chosen
by Pitt & Melville
for the persons unknown,
at least as
yet to the Committee:
unless let into the
secret. p 1.
5
Of the observations levelled
against Panopticon
not one that does not
apply with infinitely
greater force to the
Hulks:
If not better than
the now proposed new Penitentiary
nor than the existing one, it were strange
if it did not promise
to be better than the
Hulks.
Yet, while Panopticon
is peremptorily & instantly
proscribed & nothing
is said against the Hulks:
nor does any disposition
appear to give them up.
