The Horrors Of a spanish Prison.

A correspondent writing from Madrid
gives vivid description of the city
prison of the Spanish capital. He goes
on to say that, having traversed we'll
lighted passages, we stumble down a
dark, filthy, break-neok staircase, and
making our way through groups of i'll
favored, ragged denizens cf the place,
stop before an iron-bound door, at which
my conductors knocked loudly. 1t is
opened. We enter another passage and
halt for few seconds. A man with for
bidding countenanoe, himself a prisoner,
shouts loudly, announcing the Govern
| or s visit, and crowd of filthy, miserable
objects in human form hurry past. The
Governor beckons me to follow, and we
find ourselves in long, dismal, vaulted
chamber. The offensive stencil for an
instant made me recoil with disgust.
throughout the whole length of this
horrible abode is sloping wood work,
similar to that in guard-houses,
which serves for the prisoners bedsteads.
Standing on these sleeping places,
the yretches, about ninety in number,
h had taken their position. No bedding
of any kind IS provided for them, and
unless shey have friends outside who
charitably supply them with a mat
tress. the scum of society crouch for the
night on the blackened, filthy boards,
bnddled together like wild beasts in their
lairs. The authorities have not suth-
cient quantity Of blankets to provide one
for each prisoner. And now, although
the weather was mild, within this yahlted
den the pertilential atmosphere was
damp and chill. The inmates who had
blankets kept them tightly drawn around
their shoulders for warmth, and for Tear
OF their being stolen BY their associates.
On the wall are long lines Of wooden
pegs, to which are suspended the extrs
rags Of the prisoners entitled TO consider
the portion Of the plank beneath his
sleeping place.
High on the wall, 10 the left hand. are
a few small, unglszed apertures, with
iron grating, which dimly light the den.
and afford the ohly and far from sulh-
Gent means Of ventilation. Toward the
center Of the wall is q recess, the state
of which is indescribable. And in this
den, un6t for Wild beasts, human hesh

Spanish justice either releases the
wretched tenant or sends him for trial
or to the Bagne. which is. By compsri-

agination refuses to picture to itself the
horrible and ,depraved scenes enacted
when the sun has set, and those two poor
little lanterns swinging by cords from
the roof, shed their faint, Pickering light
on the man Of human wretchedness shut

depraved. The abuse OF power, the total
disregard Of humanity, and the disgraced

also justify the overthrow Of the govern
