were yesterday subjected to the usual peni-
tentiary custom of hair clipping and prison
attire. Devlin, who was received some
time since, has been assigned to duty in the
hospital. 1t has not yet been determined
to what use Calicott and Enright will be
put None of the sentences in these cases
require imprisonment at hard labor, and the
consequences is that they will have the
"privIlege." if they choose, of remaining
within their cells, where they may be sup
piled with reading matter. But prisoners
never prefer this mode Of life for Il great
while, even the hard labor of the prison being
accepted rather than the enforced idlcness
and gloom of solicitary confinement. But
one instance has happened where IA prisoner
endured this mode of lite for six months,
at the end of which time he begged to be
put at work. and So continued for the re-
manning year of his sentence. Callicott and
Enright have never been accustomed to
manual labor; but Devlin formerly a
plumber, and his services will be called in
rcquisition in that capacity when needed
about the prison building. He is only about
twenty nine years of age.-Albany Argus.

TRUTH IN BRIEF.-Anybody can soil the
reputation OF an individual, however pure
and chaste, by uttering suspicion which
his enemies will believe and his friends never
hear of. A puff Of idle wind can take up
million of the seeds of the thistle, and do a
work of mischief which the husbandman
must labor long and hard to undo, the floating
particles being too tritiing to he seen and
too light to he stopped sach are the seeds
of SANDER, so easily sown, so difficult to be
gathered up, and yet so pernicious in their
fruits They know that many mind will
eat up the plague and become poisoned by
their insinuation, without ever finding or
caring to seek the antidote. No refutation
can refute a sneer, nor any human skill pre-
vent its mischief.
