AFF>intelligen, citizen who has spark Of
christian feeling in his heart will agree with
Us that house Of refuge, or correction, is
greatly needed-not only in our own, but in
every county, or congressional district in the
State. Perhaps district house would sub
serve all purposcses better than one in each
county. Why do we come to the conclusion
that such house is required by the best in
tercsts Of the people, and Of suffering hu-
manity? Because We see, every day almost,
persons, both male and female, of youthful
years. who are ct subjects for such an asylum.
II you doubt IL, go to our Jail now, and you
will see two girls, the one about fourteen and
the other about sixteen years Of age, who are
now confined there on a charge Of INSIDE

generated for period of fifteen days. They
are girls Of fine natural sense, Of good per-
sonal appearance, aud are not fit subjects for a
prison. Better, far better, for the sake Of hu-
manity, that such people should be placed
where a reform of their abandoned life could
be effected, instead Of making them hardened
criminals, as they will surely become with such
punishment and such associations as they now
have. These girls land they are but two rep

Our readers will remember that the week
following the publication Of our letter from
'Hoosierdom"-the greater part Of which was
siolen from Hearth and Home-we denounced
the thing plagiarism, and gave the proper
cedit to the author, Mr. Edward Eggleston,
q New York. Since that time we have re-
esived Hearth and Home, and see that the edi-
to refers to the theft in proper terms. We
discovered the fraud the very day after publ
cation, but too late to correct il until the fol-
loting week, which we did, and assure our
correspondent that he would do a very foolish
thing to attempt the like again.
