A Plan for q Saoura IaiI

We present the following plan of county jail and regret that we are unable to present the diagram that accompanied it. The plan pro- posed by Mr. Watson is smpls, plain and cheap one. We hope that the county courts will take his proposition into consideration when about to take steps to have iail bnilc:
 Monticello Arh., Nov. 16, 1858.
 Mir. EDITOR: herewith give you my plan of secure jail, something that is needed in almost every county in the State The building may be made larger or smaller but a convenient size will bc found to make the foundation 28 by 34 feet. This will allow hall or passage 6 feet wide and four rooms, each 14 feet sluare. The walls should be built of brick where rock s not convenient In two rooms there should be good cubic, iron cages, well rveted and braided. and plank floor to keep the bed of the prisoner from contact with the iron. These cares shonld be seven feet square and placed in the middle ot the room so as to leave three feet space be- tween the walls of the cage and of the room. These rooms will have no light, but air will be admitted at windows in the shape of an $ with bars at the bends of the tubes. These tubes are ot cast iron, about 20 inches deep and inches wlis, with two in each dungeon, placed ten or twelve feet above the hoor think thatfwo of these windows will be enough, but more may be pnt IT, f Il is considered necessary. By this arrangement t will be utterly impossible for person outside of the building to- 5} ,ss anything m or hold any communication with the prisoner.
 The other two rooms areI,lan with grated windows for light and air. /rhess room, have doo's opening in the reyfro passage, all these doo's to be of iron, with hinges running their ea.ire width and substantial locks. The floor should be of good two inch plank, spiked to good strong sloepers, and the surface filled up to the floor with macadamized rock or crushed brck. The walls are to be put upon a rock loiAdatlon, which Is to be sunk at least fonr ieet beneath the surface. The ceiling should be made of thick stuE well put togethe, and the roof o' gravel and sand 50 as to render the building entirely fire-proof
 This plan may b, varied so as to have a s'nole story with four, six, or more rooms in it on the ground plan, or to have two stories, with greater facilities for keeping its inmates in scpa- rate rooms
 l think this plan for good and secure jail Is one whose cheapnos5 would permit every county to have one built. If we had such safe JaiIS We would have fewer crimes, for good jails and good officers make good society," but of what avail are the efforts of officers if they have no place where to secure offenders Let us hope that the legislature now inscssion, will make good laws, that our off :ers will 10 their duty aod that each county will provide a good jail, 90 that the surety of speedy punishment may deter men from crime 50 mote 1t be-.
