THE TREATMENT OF PRIs-
ONERH.

or prison erected in this District shortly.
Before this building is undertaken there
should be most careful examination into
the structure Of the. different prisons in
this country, that every new feature in
the construction Of prison buildings that
is valuable may be, so far as is practicable,
adopted. Our present Jail is dilapidated
and a shabby concern. 1t was built at o
time when the criminal was regarded as an
enemy to society, and to every individual
man in society, and an enemy that never
could be reformed. 1t was believed by
everybody that when the criminal entered
into the prison to expiate in suffering and
punishment for his crimes, that he was
henceforth lost to all things good in this
world, and that he could never be reformed,
and that as soon as he should have
served out his appointed time, he would
return to the world to prey upon society
again. Everybody believed this. The GRIM
inal himself believed it, and hence when
he was released, he did, in almost every
instance, just what he was expected to do,
till caught and sent up for longer time.
The idea then universally accepted and
believed in was, that these violators of
law deserved oil the punishment that could
possibly be inflicted upon them, hence no
pains were taken in the erection Of prison
houses. Make them secure by thick walls,
by bricks and mortar, by bars and locks,
was the end sought in their erection. No
matter for ventilation, for cleanliness, for
anything that might contribute to the
physical comfort of the inmate. He was
an enemyto society; let society punish
him, no matter how much or how
terrible that punishment might be.
From such notions as these grew up
that monstrous system Of prison dis
cpline which authorized ignorant and
brutal keepers and wardens to inAict oil
sorts o.punishment inside Of the walls for
the most trivial offences, and often for no
offences at all, except such as could be
trumped up. A change has come over the
spirit Of the people in respect to the treat
ment Of prisoners, and the jails and peni-
tentiary buildings which have been erected
within few years are the outward and
tangible monuments of this enlightenment
which has blessed society. We have
learned, thanks to the enlightened teach
ings of few earnest Christian philan-
thropists, that the proper punishment Of
the criminal need not consist in the in
Fiction Of bodily suffering that it is posi-
BILE to punish the wrong-doer, and yet
give him wholesome food and enough Of it
to make his surroundings tolerably CON-
Portable, and not immerse him in filth nor
destroy him by vermin.
We hope that when new jail is erected
in Washington it will be upon the best
plan and after the most correct model.

SERIOUS RAILROAD ACCIDENT
ONE PERSON KILLED AND
SEVERAL WOUNDED-DETEN-
TION OF THE MAILS.

The through train from New York, due
in this city at o'clock on Friday morn
ing, met with serious accident on the
thirteen mile SWITCH" SO called, and when
within about ten miles of Baltimore. The
telegraphIc report last evening was that
the masonry Of culvert gave way, pre-
cipitating the locomotive and smashing it
badly, killing the fireman, named LARMAS,
The tender and baggage car and post Office
car were also badly smashed. The chief
clerk on board the latter mr.. EAsroS) was
wounded, and several of his assistants were
more or less hurt.
The storm produced several other delays
to the same train on the road from New
York. This side Of Baltimore, about three
miles, viaduct was carried away by the
rush OF waters, 80 that since yesterday
morning to the hour Of writing this there
has been no communication between here
and that city. We do not learn that any Of
the passengers on the train referred to were
injured. The train that left here yesterday
morning for New York returned last even
ing, not being able to pass the break this
side Of Baltimore. Another train went
out at ! o'clock last evening with few
passengers, but with little chance of get.
ting through. The storm did great mis-.
chief on the whole line Of road between
this city and New York, and, wo have no
doubt, inflicted great damape unon ,u tho
railroads throughout the country.

spECULATuNG IN GRAIN.

The State Legislature Of Illinois passed,
at its last session, law to prevent and
punish what is called gambling in grain"
Under this law several persons have re-
Gently been arrested in Chicago, and they
are soon to be brought to trial. We have
but little hope that anything effective will
be done towards checking this great and
growing evil. The grain gamblers will,
like their compeers who gamble in gold or at
faro, generally escape through the meshes
Of the law, which is, as Lord BRouoHAN
once said Of an English statute, "open
enough to drive coach and four through
IT,"
A Chicago paper now before us, in
giving definition Of what grain gambling
is, finds an excuse for most Of the specu,
lators and dealers in these staples, so that
we may conclude that the persons ar
rested will probably 60 free. That paper
speaks Of class called "scalpers," upon
whom IL visits its maledictions; but from
the account 1t gives as to who these people
are, we are led to the conclusion that they
are the most harmless class engaged In
the specializing business. They appear te
be persons Of no money, Of but little in
auence, and not Of much account any way
In our judgment 1t ia not the "scaiper" wh'
is the most guilty party, but the man o
the deepest purse, who can buy cheap an'
wait for o raise.
