remarkable that the same spirit manifests itself at Portva:h
towards Mr. Roupell, the late member for I.4anibe;;
Roupell some time ago was sent from Millbank Prison
the works at Portland, and his uniform good eonduoto,
prison entitled him to receive, as early as the convict ir
gulations allowed, a first-class certificate, with its siteric
dant privileges. But Roupell is set to the usual task vi°l3o
on the fortifications. He tells, however, his friends 110,
visit him that his fellow-workmen, whenever they Li%
got a chance, are eager to help him to get through his lig
in order that he may leave work before them on the
on which visitors are allowed among the convicts. B°llrile
is to be seen as neat in person, in his prison garb, B's
used to be while he was a member of the House of v" „
mons. On the men breaking off work for the dt'Joi,
number of pails of water and napkins are placed for tb)3o
with which they are to wash and clean themselves, sod tot
or three prisoners use a pail amcng them ; but hoWeto
pressed they may be for time they set aside one of oil
pails, declining to use it until Roupell has washed in it, ° of
they always reserve for him a clean napkin. Mallico
Roupell's old friends go down at stated times from L°lsl
to see him, and they describe him to wear the same Cl
ful, serious look which marked him in the house. He 1/04
speaks to them of the past, but discusses the questi°ll',

The wealth and rnportance of Milan as the commercial

eag to the probability that a large proportion of the
thePital for this undertaking will be derived from the attic of

assuming the capital to be raised, as proposed, in shares and
