IS The black hole of Calcutta

Recent investigations have shown that
the Park Barracks in New York city have
been crammcd full of soldiers who have
been arrested for desertion and other crimes
and have been suffered to live in filth and
without proper ventilation The report
published in the Post. states that seventy
nine men have been ennfncd III a room
twcnty-one feet long by fifteen feet wide.
and that the mud is half an inch thick oil
the floor. The men have no seats, 10
beds. nor chairs and but little fresh air,
the cheapest Of all luXurics, is permitted
to visit them. Such dungconin the heart
of the city of New York is a burning
shame. General Dix expressed his aston
ishmcnt at the existence of such .'black
hole of Calcutta" in the city, when his at
tcntion was called to it.
The Tribune SAYS: Fright under the
nose of the Common Council and Board of
Health stands the eity-madc, and city-con-
trollcd Park Barracks. managed by an
officer appointed by Governor Seymour,
superintendent by the Health officer ap-
pointed by Governor Seymour. and the
City Inspector and Health Warden ap

business document, and does credit to the

that Justly warrant the belief.-as we an
ticipated by reading a notice of the Report
by a cotemporary, that the Prison had. as
by magic, jumped from being a begging
pauper institution. into paying and pros
pcrous one Indeed, we find the same old
harp of thousand strings, still in use,and
thousand and one wants are demanded to
make the curse a blessing. We cannot
rccolect back into the past far enough to
remember when Warden of the Prison
did not call for indefinite appropriations to
make repairs and to erect new buildings
for the accommodation of its inmates, or
the mechanics employed in the various
trades carried on there. We know that
We have read of these wants for the last
twenty years, and also the favorable re-
Spouse of the Legislature. We believe
that it is next to impossible to make the
present Prison, situated where it is, and
constructed as it is, and conducted as it
must be, by a new man every few years, a
