BosTON. Jnne II


STATE PRIsoN. On Saturday afternoon
last, the Governor visited the State Prison,
and attended divine service in the Chapel +;
after which, by the request Of the Rev.
Chaplain, he addressed the prisoners. He
called them .teito,V men, and exhorted them
to consider that they were there confined
for offences that would render them unfit
persons to be allowed to mix with the hon.
est, industrious, and virtuous part of the
community, AMI for which (if their offence
had been committed in other countries)
many of them must have paid the forfeit of
their lives. Yet even some of those who
were under sentence for the term of their
lives, might, by uniform, perscvering
course of good behaviour, hope for remis-
sion OF some part of their punishment. The
name of every prisoner was known at the
Council Chamber and if there should he
good cause. the mercy of the Government
would reach them, whether they applied
for it or not that it would come none the
sooner for importantly, and never. except
upon the recommendation of the Warden
and Chaplain, and those Immediately over
them. His Excelency spoke of the good
impression he entertained for their present
conduct, and of the efficiency and fidelity
OF the Warden and Chaplain and advised
the prisoners, as they valued their welfare,
so TO conduct for series of years that they
might become new men, and perhaps hope
to he one day restored to the community,
and to their friends, who would, doubtless,
receive them with kindness, if they should
here establish character for good dispo-
sitions and good habits. He SAID he had
Known several persons who had so improv-
ed their timo and OPPORTUNITY. that thew hail
gone from this place of confinement, not
only with good disposition, but with a
good trade, and were now living honestly
and respectfully. His Excellency address,
ed them for about twenty minutes, during
which they were perfectly silent, and look,
ed as if they were gratifed that he had Wis
tied them, and made them an object of his
egard.-Patriot.
