The Select Committee appointed to Ineptlre info the Nato and D.seripii tttt of Gaols and other Places of Conine ment, and into the best Method of providing for she Reformation, as well as the safe Custody and Puni.lostrot of °Wenders, and to report the sante, with their Obser vations thereupon, to the 11iiiete;--and to whom dm R .

There comprise not wily the state of the ;nods and other !dices of confinement iii every part of the United Kingdom, in point of accommodation, arrangement and system of inseisgement, together with such im provements as ought be suggested by experience and judicious observation ; but also, in conformity to «lett allocated to them to be the intention of the House, the condition of transported convicts in New South Wales, with all the circumstances nee cessarily connected with the administration of that singular and extensive establishment. They have been led to an early investigation of this latter Nth. ject by an attention to the particular situation of witnesses now *or England, the benefit of whose tes. tiiimuy might hove been last by further delay. In pursuing this pert of the inquiry they have entered into an examine of the state rod natural re sources of the country itself. considered as a colony, as well as in its more immediate connesitm with the systrrn of crintioal jortsprudence, and of the man ner its which the local government has been con ducted, under both those views of the subject. This investigation has necessarily brought ender I their observation many subjects of discussion be tween different individuals and the present Go. vernor, in submitting which to the consideration of the House, as they have thought themselves bound to do, they have to remark, that in many instances they have only had the opportunity of hearing the complaint or objecti stated, without the possibie 'sty of receiving a complete justification and au. swer. They therefore suspend all comment upon these transactions till the delay of • future Session may afford the means of receiving further infix. 'nation. The time occupied in this part of the inquiry has necessarily interfered with the progress winch might otherwise have been made in the examination of some of our domestic establishments; and your Committee have been obliged to leave some parte. cuisine and not unimportant branches, entirely un touched. Still less have they been able to prepare and .uhmit to the House. the observations which might be expected from them oil the whole of this subject. The importance of it, in all its branches, has been amply telt by your Committee; and they therefore trust it will be deemed worthy of future consideration in the ensuing Session of Parliament. In the mean time, they hove thought it right to ley before t , .e House the whole of the evidence which they have taken, and which, for the el eeeee under standing of it, they have arranged under the distinct heads into which it is naturally sub ivided, without regard us the order of time in which the witnesses happened to he examined. They cannot, however, conclude this statement, without adverting to one particular subject, which has been brought tinder their notice by the Petition of the City of London, and which, from its more immediate pressure, has attracted the particular attention of the Committee. They allude to the still crowded state of the gaol of Newgate, and the cotsseritierit impossibility of affording the suitable classification to the prisoners confined in it. They have, iii this and iii other instances, not thought it necessory to repeat the inquiries which have led to the information contained in the Reports of pre vious Committees of this House ; but the result of the whole enema to theta conclusive, that in order to produce any further reform in the system of nos prtioninetit adopted in that prison, it must either he enlarged in point of space, or some means most be resorted to, for le...seising the number of persons there coutlited, unless a much greater diminution of crime takes place than cau reasonably be ex pected. The former of these objects is siecesearily attended with much difficulty, and it is to the latter that the attention of the Committee has been particularly drawn. They Lave observed, that the number of crimi nals tried, at the Old Bailey; and consequently, previously committed to Newgete (which is the comity gaol fur Middlesex as well as London), for offences committed in that county. were in the last year in the proportion of more than seven to one ' fur those committed in the City of Laudon ; that of these, a very large number, amounting to 1,2 . 00: in the last year. were for grand lercenies, not ea. pital, which would, according Is) the general PO I & lice in other counties, have been tried at the Qielties' ter Stssim.s. They have ascertained front the l. lidet inforinntioe, that if Oil class of prisoners wore init committri: to Newgete, which they heed not b!, if they rennsi.ted for trial iii the county where'vhe ofteuce was committed; and if the convicts tfnilet anisette of transportetion were regularly retifovek as has latterly been the case, before thefieit rum rote *meg Session ; there would be ample roothquelitl such cid,itication of the remaining pririblere TO could b e re quired. by means of certain alletrittion of the iidezior of the preettit building, tittichhi4 been suggested to them. They hate ley feirtiiiit natured. that such a regtrfer m00r..; 0 . 110eitii= Ports, may to future be relied on. emit . hivil therefore told the more satisfac t ion in roailar Ohl to ILA die media of removing the only titlsri titii. donna to the execution of this impurikilileagirge: mesa. They have furifi.r footle', that slalkfllif rein practieol objeetion is raised to t he i AWN' triksi ptisorrra st the Svosious H ou se. Cher salkilritiie thirkillar what twortarrily must arise fi Vbaittale *Lich it would eecary , and the oddities:las ■.— tnodationa which it .might revile objecis your Committee trust, will not he &unit of sufn cieut weight In impede • measure of great im ports:ice to all parties concerned. They Nod tint prisoners or this deireription are woritilly tried at the Old Bailey. by the Recorder, mooted. as his other ocrispatious ins, require, by the Common Serjeunt. and that many of these trials take place in the even ing ; a practice whit h has generally been Nind inconvenient in other criminal Courts in the coun try, soil consequently abolished. As these See. slims sometimes last for three week•, and the time for trying the Middlesex grand larcenies is preen firms, it often happens that prosecutors and wit nesse., in such cases, are obliged to attend ten or twelve days; and as the expenses of these prosecit : tions are in general paid by the county of Middle ; sex (to the amount of 5,844/. in the last yecr), it is obvious that a very considerable reductiou m this expense must take place. if the time of attendance was shorteced, which must be the result if trey mode or separate trial of these offences was adulated : to which considerattots must be added, a &minis tion in the expenses of the individuals concerned. bey I what is covered by the county allowance, us well as the prevention of much personal incouve. nietice. and interruption of private business. Your Committee have adverted to these circuniststicee, as obviating. in a considerable degree, tiny objec tions that might be urged opium, the adoption of the arraogrnteot above suggested, from the expense which would be thrown on the county of Middle sex, by the support and maiutenance of such pri soners during the whole time of their euulinem►ent. as well as by the accommodations which it might be necessary to provide for conducting these trials at Clerketowell. In the course of the inquiry on this subject, it had occurred to your Committee. that as the time of the Chairman of the Q.iarter Sessions fur the comity of Middlesex is so fully occupied, that this proposed additiou of business must require the ap pointment of an additional Chairman; and as this descriptinn of prisoners are at present usually tried by the Recorder or Com Seijeant, whose offi cial character would give them a weight and au thority in discharging these functions, which► might not be possessed by private individuals. it might be advisable to recommend the granting a Special Comnsiseion to these officero of the city. in can junction with the Magistrates or Middlesex, for trying such offenders in that county. as often as the Sessions are usually held there; and. tenni'''. attending some objections which have been made to this part of the plan. and which they have not had the opportunity of fully examining. they still think it worthy of consideration. A third mode has. however. been suggested to them. which, perhaps, on the whole, is the most simple. and has the advantage of producing the least change in existing establishments. It is pro posed that the Commission under which the gaol of Newgate is now cleared. should he extended, so as to comprise the prisoners committed fur grand larceny in any prison in the county of Middlesex ; and that the Recorder. with the assistance of the Common Srrjeant, should try such prisoners (as they now usually do), hut in a separate Court, at the Old Bailey, duritig the time the oilier trials are plug on before the Judges. This would prevent she siecesoity of any such prisoners being ori b inalb committed to Newgate, or sent Own isuattlintr previous to the Sessions, which would, therefore, equally tend to effectuate the great object which your Committee have in view, of diminishing the numbers confined in that Kitson. It would only be necessary that a certain number, probably not more than twenty, should he daily sent up from Civic enwell to the Old Bailey, who might possibly be ■ccotnn►odatetl for so short a time in Newgate, or if that was found inconvenient, in some Once of temporary confinement to be provided for that pur pose. The only other alteration which thus plan requires. would be the erection of another Court at the Old Bailey. which, if provided by the City. instead of the county of Middlesex, as in the two former plane, would rather tend to equaller the re ►pective burdens and alleVistions produced by this arrangement. As your Committee see no occasion to submit any measure to the consideration or the House upon this subject. conceiving that an adequate re. medy may be found its one or other of the modes suggested, under the authority of the Crown and the directions of the Magistracy, they have only to express their confident hope. that some such mea sure will. as early as possible, be adopted. as on the whole, with a due attention to local circum• stances and established usages, may be found adapted to ensure so beneficial a result.

The latest accounts from Jamaica state, that in consequence of the distressing continuance of mor tality among the British troops there, the camp at Up-Pa r k. neat Kingston, composed of the 93d Highland regiment, and the 50th foot, had been broken up, and the troops sent ou board the vessels on the coast.
