The State Prison.

Inc annual report Of the Inspectors OF the
state Prison is through the press. We were
intending to prepare a summary OF the con
dition of the institution; but we lind in the
Detroit Tribune the following ANALYSIS Of
the report:
" AT the close Of the preceding year the
whole number Of cOnvicts in the prison was
1888. The number now confined is PIP. The
number received during the year was 100.
Bythe expiration Of sentence. l03 have been
discharged and SO have been pardoned bv
the Governor. During the year there were
I'VE deaths and two escapes, leaving the
number now in prison 40 less than at the
close Of last year. The principal cause in
the great falling off in the number Of con-
vets received, IS attributed TO the great
numbers that have sought the ranks of the
Union a. MieS, which have taken almost the
entire floating population of our cities aud
villages, thus decreasing the number Of the
inmates IN our Jails and prisons and greatly
diminishing crime. The same causes will
continue 10 operate until the close Of the
war.
While the expenses of carrying on the in
Sutnuon have been greatly increased over
all commensurate with the enormous adj
vance in gold. The latter having been the
basis OF the prices paid for most articles
USED IN the Prison. the Board express sur
prise that the expenses have been kept as
low as they have, and compliment the Agent,
Mr.. SeatOn. Tor his careful and frugal su-
perviSiOn over every department OF the III
Stitution.
The present pecuniary success OF the Pris-
on Is prevented by two circumstances IN
der the contract system, now beyond the
control, either Of the Agent or the Board OF
Inspectors. The first of these is the fact
that the present contracts for convict labor
were all made when labor was very low.
the second IS the fact, that the contracts
were all let for five years. Very many OF
the expenses Of the prison must necessarily
be rs large with 4 small. as with a large
number OF cOnvicts. The heating, lighting
and repairing costs the same, while the
number OF cooks, walters and ward hands
are not reduced
The fire Of the 10th OF November. consuu-
ing the trip-hammer shop and boiler and
engine room Of Wilmington, Cooley * Co..
is noticed. and the officers Of the prison ex.
from all blame in the matter. TIE
fire is supposed 70 have originated from The
spontaneous combustion OF large pile OF
coal in the rear OF the buildirr
The Board compliment the Agent and h.s
deputy for the prompt and thorough man
ner IN which they have carried forward the
work OF rebuilding the burnt portions OF
the prison, now nearly completed. Tie
loss 10 the State from this ire was about
50. goo, while the contractors lose nearly
so, 900. The Board endorse the recon-
mendatlon OF the Agent that the State pur-
chase q steam lire engine for the use OF the
losses Of this kind.
The discipline OF the Prison and its gen /
era management are highly commended by
the inspectors, and during thsysar nothing
