ngsii.st them ; but he at the same time acknow ledged, that many ports of the present system re quired alteration. We can easily account for the facility with which the Magi.trates may flatter themselves that they have done their duty towards themselves and the most unhappy of their fellow creatures, if they merely maintain the system they hove received from their predecessors; MA can con. ceive how greatly the complacency of ibeir self. approval might be startled, en being censured for not tutting- inquired into its errors and abuses.-- Prisons have, unfortunately, little to induce even curiosity to remove the veil of seclusion and mys tery is which they have been too twig enveloped, and charity has been seldom found sufficiently ac tive to explore the recesses of guilt and misery. Hence have their unhappy inmates been permitted to languish unpitied and unprotected, because of the very uniformity of their sufferiugs. Mr. Ben :titre's exertions for the correcting the almost in veterate evils of Prisons, are beyond all praise, and his opinions respecting the cameo and the means of their removal are so decisive as to defy the possibility of refutation. The great evil seems to be the want of clessificatiou, end we think, that, if this were pursued with attentiou, we should not in future hear the distresaing complaint now so frequently urged of want of room in our Prisons. There is nothing more notorious than that crimes are generated and fostered iu Prisons, and that the punishment which was originally intended to amend and correct, has the mull of debauch. the mind, ■nd rendering the heart cottons to every virtuous or social impression. Having our thoughts thus turned to s subject of oo much importance to the general Police of the country, we think it our duty to notice, for the consideration of those to whom the subject pro perly appertains, a circumstance that &Mends in- stint correction. We allude to the total waut. iu this metropolis, mod, we believe, we might have added in the whole kingdom. of ■ny institution for receiving destitute females, who may not as yet have fallen victim' to vice. or bare not been convicted of crime. This defect in our Po.* lice was strongly eaeinplified by a case which not long since occurred at Marlborough-street Police Office:—Mr. RICHARD TAxDY, a man of re spectability, complained that his niece, whom he had supported horn motives of charity, had robbed him of a considerable snm of money (twelve hundred pounds), and had been sub sequently found concealed in the apartment of a female of bad character. Ts save the child from ruin, he entreated the Magistrate that she might be placed iu some charitable institution ; but the Magistrate informed him, that there was none where she could be admitted unless previously con v:cted of some offence. Her uncle. in conse quence, declared that, however di►tressing it might br to h►s own feelings, he should proceed against her, fur the sole purpose of giving the child the title of a conviction to claim protection. We cannot but think the alternative thus proposed very re volting, and most suggest the advantage of either eatablishing • house of correction for the salvation of unprotected female children, in cases similar to that we have noticed, or of altering the rules of ad !Marino in sonic or all of those female peniten tiary houses now existing in several parts of the kingdom.
