charge of the construction Of the Notifications
in the neighborhood Of the city, is pushing
the work ahead a, as rapid a rate as possible,
considering the disadvantages he is laboring

tors at this time. The want of room has long
been felt as q serious Inconvenience, and a
drawback on the profitable employment OF
convict labor. The recent addition to the ag-
gregate OF prisoners, caused by the return OF
the slave transports and free negroes that mad

prison buildings to be more crowded than was
