MEETING OF MIDDLESEX
MAGISTRATES.
On Thursday the magistrates of the county of
Middlesex assembled at the Sessions House, Clerken-
well (by adjournment from the sth instant, when a
court could not be formed, in consequence of the non-
attendance of magistrates), for the purpose of trans-
acting general county business. There were nearly
thirty magierates present. Mr. Puwnall, the chair-
man of the bench, presided.
Mr. ALLEN, the county treasurer, officiated for the
deputy clerk of the peace, and read the minutes of
the preceding court. In conformity with a rule of
the court, requiring its attention to be called to any
new Act of Parliament, affecting the interests of the
county, or relating to justices in Petty or General
Quarter Sessions, Mr.
Allen laid before the court the
recently passed Act to extend summary jurisdiction
in cases of simple larceny.

CLASSIFICATION OF reisorizas.
Mr. WiLics called the attention of the bench to the
report of the Select Committee on Prison Discipline,
and upon his motion copies of the report, excluding
the evidence, were ordered to be printed and circu-
lated amongst the magistrates.
Some discussion then took place as to the mode in
which the recent order of the court for the classifi-
cation of prisoners in the county prisons should be
carried into effect. Ultimately it was ordered " that
all prisoners who, in consequence of the order made
by the court on the 18th day of July for the classifi-
cation of prisoners in the prisons of this county, cannot
lawfully be detained in those prisons from and after
the 29th day of September inst., be, on the 30th
day of September inst: removed by the governors of
the respective prisons in which they shall then be in
confinement to the prisons applicable to their recep-
tion, and that a list of all such prisoners be signed
both by the governor sending and the governor re-
ceiving them." And that a letter be forwarded to all
the police magistrates of the county, requesting them
to specify in each commitment the age of the person
committed.
The classification is to be as follows female
prisoners and such male prisoners as are under 17
years of age are to be sent to the House of Correc-
tion, at Westminster, and all male prisoners above 17
years of age are to be sent to Coldbath-fields House of
Correction. This does not include such as may be
committed for want of sureties, for safe custody,
merely, for re-examination, or for trial at the ses-
sions. The House of Detention at Clerkenwell is to be
appropriated for the reception of prisoners of those
classes.
