Indian Com ~ once al the almost nominal
duty 81 one shilling per quarter. and Indian
Corn Meal at siSpeics per cwt; and that
Wheat and Flour are st the end OF three

lions, and IA the mean ume 10 b. admissible
on a greatly modified sliding scale, saw at
four shlllngs par quarter when the average
price isst or uboye BIS per quarter, and { oin
cred~, one shilling for ever reduction ~ a
shilling IN the averages tall the average falls
TO iSs. which will make the duty los. and
that tn BE- the maximum.
Tn average at present being 56s ld. the
duty under the proposed new law would now
b. the minimum one OF IL per quarter on
wheat. and - 5d per bbl. on -four, instead oi
the prohibijory rate Of l6s per quarter and

aCBUhSr req. 10, l-to
To The Editor Of The Tribune
The Circuit Court and Court of Oyer and Term
iner is in session here The subjects ofnterest and
exci,emer, are connected with the State Prison. A
convict is on trial for the murder OF another convict
Mr. Seward and his associates, Messrs. Morgan and
Bla.chford are making able patient, toilsome and
and unrewarded exertions in behalf OF the accused
The chances of an acquitai arise from the gen
eral and increasing hostility to Capital Punishment
and the cruelties too long practiced in the Prison,
than from the facts thus far elected.
The Grand Jury are busted with an investigation
of the whipping OF convict, recently deceased.
Public feeling has been pretty strong against the
present officers of the Prison-stimulated. some
extent, an sorry to say by party and personal
hostility: though this feeling has been partially allay
ed BY proof elected upon the murder trial that Sc
we're whippings have been frequent under the for
mer officers some ofwhom have been pretty free IN
condemning the present ones. The hostility hope,
will be turned from the officers who pracuce these
severtis the system that permits them, and then
| care not how general the feeling OF condemnation
NAV be. We have built prisons to get rid of the
barbarous whipping post and yet the whip seems
10 be as much in requsi,ion and use as before.
Our present system il not reformatory. The re
vengeful feelings Of the convict are kept in con-
slant exercise By the severity Pracuced upon MIN
sell or upon his fellows with whom he sympathizes
and he goes into the world again when discharged,
with feelings more brutal than when he went 10
prison Hard hearted, unteeling men are more
likely than others seek the place Of keepers, and
they are made worse by the severity they are per
mitted TO practice; and even the good and intelli-
gent population Of Auburn are, inPerceptible to
themselves little hardened in their feelings to the
suerings of humanity, By the too frequent tales of
cruelty tina, are escaping from the prison walls.
The number of prisoners in our prisons is too
large. The principal Keeper, did the system and
his feelings permit, know the characters and
gain the confidence OF so large number, and can
not exercise reformatory influence upon the IN
fortunate subjects OF his charge The denial OF the
right to use the organs speech is refined cruelty
thai ought no. longer to be tolerated in this age
Who does no, know with what rapidlty the powers
of the mind become impaired when the tongue may
10 longer give uterance TO thought! E1ertions are
making TO reform the prisoner after be gets out OF
prison is it not time that something should be done
10 reform and elevate his feelings while within
SENECA.
