ROTTEIDA X, OCT. 16.
Today his '3lsjesty opens the Sessions or the Statea.Onseral at
Braisela.
According to authentic accounts received by one of our physi-
cians, the state of the sickness at Oroningen was very unfavour-
able. It was in general a malignant intermittent fere', accom-
panied with various important symptoms. The convalescent were
vary liable to relapse, and in that case death was generally the con.
sequence. Above n third of the population ware attacked ; 1.500
had died since the 6th June, and tour days preceding the 10th
October. 72.
The accounts from Friesland we still very melancholy ; sickness
and death increase, as appears from the follosiug statement :
At Scuk, the deaths I[olll Ist to 16th Sept. acre 36; from 16th
Stet. to Ist Oct. 42 ; and from Ist to 16th Oct. 59. In Scholar.

BERLIW OCTAL

rhe tread-mill which Is introduced into the House of Correction
at Crensell, in Bavaria, grinds daily the flour requisite for the 400
persons in this establishment. Every individual makes GOO steps,
and is then relieved by another, so that he works eight minutes and
mars eight. The physician attends the prisoners once a week, and
when there is any appearance of weakness of the lungs other cm-
'influent is given them. Every one works at Mc mill only 11316^
day, mid the number of steps during that time makes a German
mils (about four and a half English miles). Thus they have a
German mile to walk up hill, without mountain air, in a large
vaulted room, with constant interruptions, and double allowance of
toad. The appearance looks like Dante's Hell. Conceive a large
vaulted apartment, lighted by a single lamp, near which a sentinel
Is posted with his drawn sabre, which glimmers in the gloom ; the
prisoners almost, without exception, well-made young persons, in
white linen trowsers and shirt sleeves, seen from behind in constant
:ration, though never advancing till the GOO steps are accomplished ;
a bell then rings, the workmen let themselves down • by Iron bars,
by which others ascend, so that the wheel never stands still. 3110
men and 1110 women are constantly employed here, and among
them are youths of good education. No sound of a human voice is
heard in the mill-room, or in ally of the other apartments. All the
workmen are obliged to be silent.—Berlipt Pa,.er, Oct. 12.
