Forfeiture of Reputation

natural quantum of disrepute: though something likewise may be supposed to be contributed by it in point of intensity on account of the certainty which it gives to men's opinions of the delinquency of the offender. Even this measure, mode of proceeding mild as it may appear, is capable of various degrees of severity according to the various degrees of publicity that may be given to the fact. It may be registered in a written instrument to which few people have acceſs; it may be registered in a written instrument to which any person may have acceſs. It may be notified by proclamation, by sound of trumpet, by beat of Drum. Since the invention of printing it may be recorded in indelible characters and circulated through the whole state.(a)

Note.

(a) In certain offences against the Police, for instance, in selling bread by short weight it is not an uncommon thing where the degree of delinquency appears to be considerable for the magistrate to threaten the offender that upon the next conviction he shall be advertised in the Newspapers. Such a punishment seems to be looked upon as more severe than the fine impoſed by Statute.
