Provlsions u the Penitentinrr.

The State Journal remarks that but few
persons are aware of the immense quantity oi
provisions which are consumed by the con-
victs in the Penitentiary, and proceeds to en-
tighten the public in the premises. 1t com
menees with the staff of life, bread:
There are 55 barrels Graham -four used
per week, which make 4s5 loayes of bread
weighing 80 pounds esch-this is 1880
pounds per week, and amounts in the year
to the enormous quantity of 423, 600 pounds
or 462 tons of Graham bread. The amount
of meat consumed per day is 1900 pounds,
s,4OO per week, or nearly l19 tons in one
year. Potatoes are given to the prisoners
once day during the year when they can
be had, and it takes Is bushels for one meal.
They get coffee twice each day, which takes
"a pounds mixed with barley or rye-this
makes 266 gallons of coffee consumed every
day, making $3.50 pounds of coffee, or 81.
090 gallons in one year. On each Sunday
they are treated with a cup of tea for their
dinner, which takes Is pounds for one draw
ing, making 1873 gallons.
In addition TO the above, vegetables are
given occasionally, in their season, some
times every other other day, or twice week.
1t takes II bushels tomatoes for one meal;
1000 pounds of cabbage; l60 pounds of rice;
4 bushels beans; IA bushels apples; 10 bush
els onions stewed; 80 bushels greens, and ls

Of molasses, and 1O4 barrels of vinegar.
The present Warden, Mr.. Prentiss, has COM
menced to give them butter, bread and coffee
occasionally, for breakfast. The first time
some Of the convicts have tasted butter for
twenty years, was on last Tuesday morning,
and it was amusing as well gratifying to
witness the silent expressions of gratitude
which lit up the countenances of the prison.

them. Ittakes $50 pounds for one meal.
The health of the prison is good for this
season Of the year, and the Warden informs
Us that the medicine of the new Physician,
DR.. Kinsel, works like a charm. There are
now confined 952 convicts, a small decrease
the courts not being in session generally
throughout the State at the present time.

The late Convention at Chillieothe was but
slimly attended, especially from Northern
Ohio. B. White, Esq, Of this city, we un-
deStand was the sole representative from
Ouyahogn, if not the Western Reserve
There may have been "corporars guard
from the Reserve, but not an "omnibus load" !"
The Ashtabula Congressional district did not
furnish even name for Presidential elector,
and old Richland county, and Washington,
were each represented by q solitary delegate.
The additional counties represented were
Hamilton, Butler, Montgomery, Green, Mi
ami, Franklin, Licking Pickaway, Belmont,
Fayette, Fairfield, Highland, Scioto, vinton,
Athens, Ross, Pike, and Clark. None except
Hamilton and Ross had over half dozen del
egates, while some had two or three, and 9TH
ers but one. Of the spirit of the Convention
the Commercials correspondent writes:
It was taciay conceded that with the ex-
oeption CT the Supreme Judge, the Republi-
can nominees would be elected, and hope
was expressed that Brinkenhoff may be de-
feated, but this was not regarded as GER
tainty. The speakers generally devoted their
time to denunciations Of the Republican par
ty, but paid comparatively mere passing left
handed compliments TO Douglas and Bfeck-
enridge. Il was truly more of an Anti-Re-
publican Convention than anything else un-
der the sun.

Charles c. Brown, a prominent attorney
of Cincinnati, and U. S. Commissioner fol
Ohio, was shot dead on Friday evening by
George J. Caldwell, Esq, in the residence Of
the latter. The parties are well known in
Cincinnati, and have large circles of friends
Brown was unmarried, and 80 years of age
A bitter enmity growing out of business
transactions had existed between the parties
for some time, and it was expected by theiI
friends that personal rencontre would take
place sooner of later. Friday evening Mr.
Brown approached the house of Mr.. Cald-
well, and found Mr.. G. standing on his door
step in company with ladies. The Gazette
says:
At Browns approach Caldwell stepped into
the house, as if he wished TO avoid any con.
! ference with Brown, who, notwithstanding
/ followed @. into the parlor, and continued
following him until Caldwell had retreated
through the parlOr and up back fight Of
steps into his private bedroom. He closed the
door, but had scarcely secured it on the in

admittance. Mr.. Caldwell ordered him down
stairs, saying that it was not his wish to have
any difficulty; but Brown still demanding
admittsnce, the door was finally opened, and
he stepped across the threshold into the room.
What transpired between the two when they
were thus clossted alone, is not known; but
scarcely five minutes elapsed after leaving the
front part Of the house, when the crack of a
pistol was heard, and parties rushing to the
spot found Brown lying on the floor, suffer
ing great pain from wound in his rights side,
which on examination proved to have been
produced by the bullet from Caldwells pistol,
which entered the body between the sixth
and seventh ribs, passing into the right lung.
Mr.. Caldwell gave himself up to the an
thorities, and AYERS that he fred in self-de-

deceased was armed and intended to assault

GarlbaIdis Rntrr Into nIessInn.

Medici, writes the Sicily correspondent OF
the London Times, under date of July 9th,
arrived at IL O'Clock, with two thousand
men, all Italians; they are a handsome race
of men, and all young. Medici rode at the
head ofhis regiment, on the charger of Bosco.
He entered the town amidst the evUiUGs of a
multitude, flags flying, drums beating, and
altogether manifestation ofenthusiasm which
cannot be described. With baggage the
Italians don't seem to be much incommoded,
for with two thousand men there were only
three or four carts, certainly not more, upon
which there were only boxes. All the men
wore bouquets, and flowers were plentifully
showered upon them. At two O'Clock I
heard again eUUiUas in the town. rushed to
learn the cause, and was told by thousands of
people that Garibaldi, the Liberator, had at
length arrived. 1 hastened to meet him at
Leone, as ythis gate, itseems, he had entered
from Palermo. His carriage was surrounded
by thousands of men, who drew him along
amidst continual burst of cheering. His face
did not show the least sign of excitement
He even seemed not to see the masses of
troops-not to hear the acclamations of the
people. His mind was evidently occupied
with something quite different He pro-
ceeded to the house of the former ntendaHte,
and there took up his dwelling. Twice he
was obliged to yield to the popular demands,
and to show himself to the people, coming to
a window for that purpose. Still, he seemed
not to recognise why there was all this COM
motion. He had no sooner settled in the
house than he ordered carriage and horses
to be prepared. The man has neither quiet
ness nor peace-motion is his element.
At four o'clock, Garibaldi and his adiu-
tants set out in the carriage and went at
rapid gallop to the Faro, the promontory
commanding the Straits between Sicily and
the mainland. There he called around him
all the oldest and most trustworthy mariners |
and pilots. He asked each of them his |
opinion respecting the course of the currents,
the depth of the channel, and in fact he in |
formed himself of the nature of the whole |
Of the teTreiRe, so that something really earn |
est must be in contemplation. To discover
what this was, followed him on horseback,
came up with his party, and entered into
conversation with his different officers. From
what I learned it appears that as soon as he
has gathered sufficient means of transport, he
is determined to cross the mainland; and for
this purpose he has ordered boats to be col
lected with all possible diligence. When
returned, found Messina quite different
place. People thronged the streets, and all
had returned to the old course, as if nothing
had happened. Shops were opened, music
resounded on all sides, the coffee-houses were
filed, and instead of Neapolitan soldiers, we
saw nothing but Piedmontese and the young
sqlEGdi. found that Garibaldi had sent
commissioner to buy three hundred pieces of
linen for his camp at the Faro-from which
it seems that there he means to establish his
headquarters, and to entrench himself

II The South Prefers Lincoln to Douglas.

The Chicago Press and Tribune of August
10th prints an extract from private letter
written by an influential and intelligent gen
tleman in Kentucky, to prominent gentle
man in Chicago. In it we find the follow
ing relative to Southern opinion of Lincoln1's
election and conduct when in powerl
1t may seem strange to you, bp-t. it is never
theless true that the South IoOJ Is to the election
Of Lincoln By the people,, GD,i aOould prefer him
TO Douglas. Our most ultra Southern men
seem to respect hip-4, and to have confidence
in his honesty, falrness and conservatism
They eoneeo.le that he stands on moderate
platform. that his antecedents are excellent,
and tat he is not likely to invade the rights
o. any one; but they can't go for him be
cause he holds opinions relative to the right
of Slavery in the Territories, directly oppo-
site to the Southern view. Still he is an open
and candid opponent and therefore commands
Southern respect

THE JEALOUS HUSBAND.

In our Forest City living,
There's a nice genteel young man.
One whose name shall not tell you
You may guess il If you can.
Being married. one thing only
Came to mar the joys Of life;
he was Just q trife jealous
Of his young and handsome wife.
Yet he loved her, OF so dearly.
That You must not think Of blame,
In what now shall tell you
Ot this MIR. What's his name.
He went home quite unexpected-
,TWas week ago or more
Ills young wife was in the parlOr
With her back towards the door.
She was at the centre-table,
In her hand she held pen,
And with something interesting
She was busy there and then.
But her husband softly entered;
Ger her snowy shoulders gaZed;
By three letters oft repeated,
Was his very soul amazed
Il. U.H" were the initials
Written DER and DER again;
Fixed upon the spotless paper,
For his hopes, alas too plain.
They were not his own initials,
And the fact was now revealed
His wife within her bosom
Had a secret love concealed.
Then his blood stopped circulating,
And his heart but family beat;
He felt a strange sensation
From his head down to his feet.
And he cried, 'Ineopstant wOmAnl
All my dreams Of Love are Ger"
Rolled his eyes to the ceiling,
And fell PROSTATE Onn the door.
Then his wife-Sith terror stricken,
By her husbands falling there,
Started from the centre-table
With cry Of wild despair.
And she ehafed his hands and temples
Kissed his pallid brow and cheek
Till, with consciousness returning,
He had strength enough to speak.
When he family, sadly uttered
Il am ruined l shall die
Why oh why hast thou deceived me?
Thou inconstant woman, why
'Wh0, oh who, in thy affections
Has all love ofme effaced2
Whose, oh ] whose are the initials
Which thy guilty hand has traced
''Who is the Il. U. H deceiver?
Tell me, ere my heart grows still !"
And his wits replied-"My darling,
But be patient and will.
ct have never yet deceived thee,
For my heart is all thine own,
And its highest, best ambition,
Is to live for thee alone.
"If thou'lt ne'er be jealaus,
will truly tell thee all

All his doubts and fears had fled
And upon his manly bosom,
As she pillowed there her head.
To the whispered words she listened,
Which affection made him speak,
TIL his earnest lips grew silent
In communion with her cheek.
But the honeyed words be uttered
In his whispers, soft and low,
Were-"I'u ne'er again be jealous,
Not fear my heart shall know.
"From the lips that now caress thee,
Not word of doubt shall fall
will live to love and bless thee,
And will clothe at UNION HALL"
