Some sonespoudenes was read by the Clerk of the
Deese whin beg taken plasm between the Goveramme
authorities and the Court, touching the arrangement
n the gaol. It will be remembered that the state el

alterations were required involving • large outlay. To
this the visiting justices objected, contending that • few
trifling alterations would meet the reqeiremente of tb•

ead 121 of them as sufficiently warmed, but that 2
stoves should be provided for warming 24 others, that
two ventilating brieks should be placed in each cell, aad
that those not having extraction flues should be so

on behalf of Mr. Perry, is of opinion that rant=

Mr. Plans asked whether as a matter of courtesy
the Secretary of State should not be informed of what
they had dose.
The Rey, C. W. BINGHAM observed that this was un-
necessary. Their simple course was to rimy out the
recommendations of the Inspectom It seemed to him

they had pined a complete victory. Everything they
were ordered to do was exactly what they intended
doing and promised.
