On Thomlay last the benevolent Mrs. Fry paid

of laudable curiosity Nod interest. She did not
arrive in Derby till the night before, anal alt her
visit to the gaol was fixed far so early an hour as
nose o'clock w the morning I.f Thursday. compass
rativrly few of those who would otherwise have been
gratified by atiendiog her were aware of her inten-
tion. A considerable number of Ladies anal Gen.
tlemeu had, however, sufficient notice to accompaily
her in this visit of humanity, and all were 111 II Very

respecting the arrangeuu•nt of the gaol, Mrs. Fry
could not help deploring its lamentable want of
accommodatimi, far the purposes loath of classifica-
tion and discs phase; and she listened with the most
lively satisfaction to the intelligence that its comfi-

the power of classification, all the females are
usually connived together. Mrs. Fib' was atlrudrd
