A Hatchet for
in Paley's Net

1.

Per Paley modes of employing
capital punishment
two
1- assign it to few cases
apply it invariably.
2- apply assign it to many
apply it rarely.
Per J.B.
3.- assign it not at all,
as in Russia & Tuscany. p.1.

2.

Paley's justification of
the mode followed in
England a specimen of
mental debilitation produced
by subscription. p1.

3

Per Paley - Reason for
English practice, Cases
meet for capital punishment
depend on circumstances
impossible to be
defined till after the offence
has been committed. p.2

4

By the help of this doctrine,
which supposes that for
the administration of
penal law it is necessary
that Judges should be
invested with arbitrary power
the atrocities of Nero or
Caligula or any other atrocities
may find their justification. p2.

5.

Occasions for capital punishment
being thus inexpressible,
whenever inflicted,
no reason for its infliction
can ever be assigned p.3

6 Though oif those circumstances
have a name that
name that name is as
capable of being given
them before as after the
offence is committed. p.3.
