FARNHAM WORKHOIIBI AGAIN.—Some new facts
not elicited before the poordaw commintioaers, by whoa
the inquiry has hitherto been conducted, were ht to
light on Thursday at • meeting of the board o guardians
of this union, when a letter from the medical officer, Dr.
Powell, was taken into consideration. By this document,
which was read by the chairman is presence of the master,
the medical officer respectfully called the attention of the
guardians to the state of the suits of clothing at present
in use by the male inmates, both in the infirmary and
body of the house, many of them being in • most dirty
state both inside id out, while several were in rage, and
the trawlers and coats of others had evidently not been
changed for • considerable time. The meal officer
therefore suggested that two suits of clothing should be
provided for each inmate. sit present there was not a suit

sayolothing, none beingobtainable feebler' in the hones. Dr.
Powell also requested the attention of the board to the
bathing of the inmates on their admission. The quan-
tity of water used in the male receiving ward bath never
exceeded two inches, and in the female receiving
and venereal wards the quantity was only three inches.
The letter concluded by a recommendation that each bath
should contain at least 18 inches depth of water, and that
for • proper bath two feet of water should be supplied.

inmates were very nearly naked, their clothing being moth

shortly be furnished by the contractor, and that the eon.
struction of the baths would be altered under the inspec-
tion of the visiting committee. In a discussion relating to
