-OHIo PEEITENTIARE.-The- Directors and
Warden of the Ohio PenitentiAry have sent
in to the Governor their Report tor the year
ending October S1st, 1851. From it we learn
that during the year the sanitary. regula-
tions Of the prison were earcfuIly regarded,
the cells, beds, shops, and all parts Of the
buildings and yard having been regularly
examined ssn1i-rnonthly, and found in exc
characterization. The experiment of giving
the Inmates greater ysTigty of ffoOd has full
sued tbe most aanguins expestegops of IL
advocates, and proved advantageous to bOth
the m ,Nutal and physical condition. Of the
men. while It has materially reducsd the cost
Of subsisten,>e. Instead Of giving meat at
the three meals as formerly butter and
cheese have been substitsted atone, and the
amount Of vegetab's food insFeaseds The
health Of the inmates during the year IL
ttaied as having been WY gocd, For this
lhe Directors highly commend the Physieia1is Z
The Directors call the particu lar attention Of
the Governor to the want Of cells, inc cOnss-
auence icf which from one to two hundred
inmates slept in the Chapel during The en-,
lire year, in temporary banks erected fcr the
purpose, thus preluding the. regular Church
and Sabbath School services, which, howey-
or, are now resumed, as well as ths day
school, which latter Is commended to favor
abls notice, and q continuance off appro-
priation for assistant teacher recommended.
The work of the Matron and. her Assistants
Mrs. Jennie Wilson, ia the female depart
ment, is highly commended. u q
-Four Ares occurred within the walls
during the year. Great care has besn. ta :
ken 70 prevent these calamities. Itisstated
that there is not sufficient water on the
premises TO fully supply the stsam ere en-
kines, and an appropriation Of $500 id re-
commended to furnish The necessary

at Ironton by JEFF Thompson;
The Richmond dispatch has the following
in regard to the Federal accounts of the
fight at Somerset:
We publish batch of the Federal dis
patches, and don't believe there is q word Of
truth in them.
The fact is as the reader Will DeresiEssOn
reading the money article Of the New York
Evening Post that stocks wore going down
at such rapid rate, owing 70 the failure Ct
the Burnside expedition, and the licking the
Federals recently got at the hands of JEFF
Thompson, that It was necessary to- steam
up in some way to keep down the rebellion
at home. So they, ,rssOFted to these des-
patches, their regular plan of operations
in the stock market and of keeping their
spirits. We suspect that Zollicofer has Civ
en- then licking, as be commenced the at
tack, according to their own account, as con-
tained in one of their dispatches, and it is
not Likely go prudent commander as Zollicof-
fer would NOT have opened tA6ib bah on them,
