Infamy according to the meaning usually attached
to it, means rather the criminal than the crime.
If the infamy was understood of the crime itself,
its effect would be more certain, more durab
lasting and more efficacious. It might then be
made to bear a proportion to the nature of the crime
But how is this object to be attained? For each
species of offence an equivalent species of infamy
discredit must be devised.

To ex This would however require the
contrivance of and use of a set of Instruments
altogether new in criminal judicature. inscriptions,
and Emblems, drafts, tables for each offence,
in accord of objects which make the eye, which
impress in the imagination through the senses
& which form indestructible associations between
the crime offence and and the infamy. It is thus
that the public indignation for the crime may
be concentrated upon the criminal and upon
the crime, an indignation which is not to
be directed against the laws and against the Judges.
