WHAT IT COST.
The total amount expended during tho
year for the prison was S5e.U35. The
receipts from contractors for hire or con-
victs and from incidental sources werc
$5i.b7S. showing an apparent cost Of
S7,S37 for the year. There Is to be de-
Quoted from this, however, the sum Gf
) Sl,2oO, paid out for unpaid expenses cf
the previous year. which reduces the cx-
penscs to S6,637. During the prison yenr
ending December IL, 1853. the cxnenscs
exceeded the receipts $0.O36. showing 4
reduction Of s3,6Ol on the last year
Coloncl L. $. Shuler, the Warden, feels
confident that each year will show
Gradual reduction Of the expenses. The
State receives an average of forty-six
'ents per day for every convict i'm tho.
prison, while in the Northern
Prison the average is fifty cents day, so
hat had the Southern prison been equal
n this respect, the institution would
'ayc been self-sustaining in the year
