Notice TO the Friends of the Night
School.

This activity Of the YoUSG MEMS CHRISTIAN
ASSOCIATION is too well and favorably known
TO require any mention Of its merits and OF Its
claims upon the benevolence of all philanthrop'c
as well as Christian citizens.
There was, perhaps, never a time when this
School promised more good by way of improv-
ing the boys of the city by this means than at
the present.
Numbering about forty pupils, who every
night in the week are taught and trained in
those things that go to make them good and use
full citizens, instead Of being left to roam round
the streets without guide, aim or object, nothing
could be moro desirable than the continuation
ofthis School.
But it becomes necessary to make known to
the citizens that all the funds for its support arc
exhausted, and it must BIO discontinued at once,
unless the means are Immediately placed in the
hands of the committee to keep it up.
We arc sure that this notice is all that is need
ed to secure the desired help.
All funds for the above object will be sent to

is fortunate in having the State Prison
conducted in accordance with the princi-
pies adopted by the International Con-
gress, our jail system sadly needs reform
ing. The mode has been pointed out,
but prejudice and fear of expense stand in
the way, while criminals multiply and
communities suffer. Among questions
affecting public prosperity and happiness
this is one of the greatest. The clamor
for barbarous usage has lost its potency
since milder measures are proving their
utility. Besides the preparation for lead
ing better life which the convict now
obtains at many Of our penitentiaries, his
labor supports him. Under the old sys-
tem--the present system in our iails--the
whole maintenance of the prison was
borne by the State or county while the
