HARRIsBURG, (PENS Sept. TO-
J A plan Of the new State Peniten,isry now erect
ing at Philadelphia, has been deposited in the Office
of the Secretary OF the Commonwealth. and appro
we'd by Governor Heister.-The plan is somewhat
novel; 1t consists Of buildings constructed on
the radiating principle each containing thirty Tour
cells, with large edhce in the centre, to which
they are are united by covered ways 1t is 10 this
central building that the vctuas, &c OF the convics
are be prepared, and here also, one or more sen
nels are to be placed Every cell has its own yard,
where the prisoners can be admitted to the light Of
the sun only at the pleasure of the keeper The
buildings, yards, gardens and grounds. embracing
area of twelve acres, are to be surrounded by a
wall sixty feet in height, and fronted by apart
ments for the keepers and otAer Ulcers OF the nsti
tuition. The plan or design OF this extensive and
important public work, was furnished by John Ha-
viand Esq. architect, and differs from the Pitts
burg plan, designated by William Strickland, Esq
architect. Both establishments are founded on the
principle of improving the system OF solitary labor,
and will we trust afford ample opportunity for ma.
king fair experiment of this philanhropic theory.
Reuenue Of The State.-We are informed, that the
receipts of the Treasury, for the last nine months
exceed $4,000, and that it is expected, farther
sum o. 100000, will be paid in on the same account
during the remainder of the financial year, making
difference in favor of this years revenue, compared
with that the preceding year, OF upwards eigh-
| ty-th1usand dollars.
Fines Of delinquent observation-disclosures from
official documents, that fines to the amount OF
1924 974, were assessed upon the citizens OF this
commonwealth, for noncompliance with military
acquisitions, during the late or this sum about
$4,000 have been RENTED and 5 so 600 been col
lected by marshals their deputies and agents, not
one cent OF which has been paid over by them, or
reached the Public Treasury.
| RIOT.-A number of sailors proceeded on
| Thursday week. in body to Rutgers wharf New
York, where sloop OF war is fitting out for the Col
ombian government, and attempted to take possess
ion OF and dismantle her The object it appears
was to insist upon employment and the payment OF
higher wages. The Sheriff, under Sheriff, Mar.has,
and posse c0mitataS were there IN time. Several Of
the ring leaders were spprehended after the ex-
change OF some blows. The sailors amounted TO 100,
and appeared TO have been set on by some CT the
boarding house keepers The leader wore an epau
et on his shoulder and gave up quietly on the de-
mand OF the civil authority.
