REMARKS.
* Of this number 10 boys under 16 years.
†Of this number 3 girls under 15 years.
NOTE 1.—This and the other statements numbered 1 to 7 only convicted prisoners are to be included.
2.—Debtors and others detained for default of Government revenue will appear in No. 8.
3.—The " Total," column 6, is obtained by adding together the totals of columns 4 and 6, and represents with sufficient accuracy the number of different individuals who have been in prison during the year.
4.—The " Total population," column 8, is the sum of columns 6 plus 7, and necessarily includes many who are counted more than once.
5. — The "Daily average number," column 3, is obtained by adding together the number presented on each day of the year. vide column 2, and dividing; the whole by the number of days in the year.
6.—When prisoners are transferred from one Jail to another on their way to undergo transportation beyond seas, they should be entered by the transferring Jail in column 6 B: and by the Jail which received them they should be entered in column 7 B. When
prisoners sentenced to transportation beyond seas are despatched from any Jail, so that they will leave the Province without pasting through any other Jail in it, they should be entered in column 11.
It will be observed that trarsportation applies only to those prisoners sent beyond seas. Transportation to a Central Prison is regarded merely as a transfer.
7.—When the gangs are employed extra-murally under the orders of Government, No. 1632—48, dated 28th October 1869, they should be considered as forming a separate Jail, and the name of the Jail, that is, of the place where they are employed, should be entered
in Italics in each statement.
