3 Transportation
19 June 1802
Transportation by
distance without
reformation seems
to have been the
only real object in
this choice. —
2.
Misbehaviour the
result of non-reformation
not being regarded
so as it was out of
Britain & unseen.
3.
The contrivance was
in every instance
either unjust or inefficacious.
4.
Injustice of the expedient —
Historical sketch
since the Australian
transportation into
the American colonies
has been coming
into use —
and has been
marked out in lots
of different length
with great apparent care. —
5
The Act of 1799 affords
a particular example
of this care. —
6
The American transportation
had partly
the objects of
punishment — partly failed. —
7.
Reformation being
difficult and incapacitation
by local
exclusion appearing
easy, when a fresh (port
was to be looked out
for, New South Wales
recommended itself
on the score of distance.
8.
Distance was the ut
only circumstance
that could have
recommended it.

9
In idea the expedient
was a simple one.
10
But its effects influence on the
system of transportation
punishment, as laid
down by so many
Acts, was extremely
complicated. —
11
In an oblique way,
(which will be delineated
presently) the punishment
in almost
all cases of transportation
underwent an
increase — prodigious
and unprecedented.
12.
In the almost obsolete
practice in regard to
Mayhem, damages
found by the Jury
may be increased
by the Judge but
the benefit goes to
the party injured.
