THE PENITENTIARY.
TO THE EDIToit OF 7'HE SUN.
Sic —Would you be so kind as to allow me, through the
medium of your valuable paper, to make known an evil
which ought long ago to have occupied the attention of the
proper author. ies ? It is with respect to the Penitentiary.
The patrons of your journal have no doubt read several cases
of death that have occurred from time to time in the above
mentioned prison, which was said to he caused from its prox-
imity to the river. Now let any prson tak 4an airing, as it
might be styled, to Vauxhall-bridge, atici immediately oppo-
site this vast pig-stye their noses will be assailed with the
most disgusting effluvia, evidently proceeding from one of
two causes—either from dead carcases which are allowed to
accumulate on the bank of the river,* or very
.deficient
drainage within the prison walls; in either of which cases
the most malignant disorders are liable to accrue, and not
less dangerous to the inhabitants of the vicinity than to the
prisoners themselves.
