upon him
Indelible stigmas are necessary only to
designate dangerous offenders, but who when
known, care to be such,
When an offence is infamous, the stigma
to perpetual imprisonment should be made
to accompany the infliction of a stigma to
prevent the escape of the prisoner. It thus
operates as a sort of chain: the prison becomes
an asylum in which he is returned to less
infamy than he would be if at large.
That under the mask maybe visible it to be made
with coloured powders, and not by bur burning.
Ignominious punishments
Infamy is one of the most salutary ingredients
of penal pharmacy punishments: the prevailing ideas on this subject
are extremely confused, & the means by which for
of giving effect to them very imperfect inadequate. According
to the notions of lawyers, infamy is a homogenous
entity, indivisible, and in quantity absolute
and invariable. If this were true the
use of this pus punishment would be in almost
all cases impolitic & unjust, since it is applied
alike to crimes of very different descriptions,
& even to offences that call for no punishment.
