TENNESSEE PENrrENTIARY.
Facts and Figures about
CrfmimaIs.


The Union and American states that
there is a constant increase OF convicts
at the Tennessee penitentiary, and there
are to-day more criminals confined there
in than at any previous time since its
erection in 1880. January l, 1872, the
number was 752; July /, 1872, 1853; Jan
uary |, 1873 1888; July |, 1873, 1872; Jan
uery l. 1874, 744 and on June 10, 1874,
905.
OF this number sixty-eight per cent.
are colored, thirty-nine of whom are
women, the latter being employed prin-
cipallY in the laundry and cook room.
Among the convicts every State in the
Union is represented, there being fifty
from New York alone. Twelve of the
prisoners we're sent to the institution by
Federal Court, the majority of the num-
Der being East Tennessee counterfeiters.
The prisoners outside the penitentiary
walls are distributed as follows:
Sewanee coal mines
Battle Creek coal mines,
Vulcan coal
Paducah railroad,
Cumberland and Ohio railroad
Nashville and Northwestern railroad ,.........20

At this time there are in hospital and
excused from labor 26 prisoners, while 80
are engaged in cooking, washing and on
police duty. There are hospital accom-
modatious at the prison for so persons.
In December, 1871, the labor Of the
convicts was leased for term of five
years by Messrs. OConner, Looney and
the Hume Brothers, they agreeing to
pay the State $4,000 per annum and
bear all the running expenses Of the
penitentiary Soon after the contract
was made the style of the firm was
changed to Cherry, 0Conner & Co.,
Mr.. W. II. Cherry becoming one of the
firm and Mr.. Looney Withdrawing.
Previous to the leasing of the prison,
it had been run by the State at loss of
$4,000 per annum, on an average,
since the war. AT present the running
expenses of the establishment for board,
clothing, hospital attendance, guard
hire, etc is about Sl5, 600 per month, or
$4,000 per annum making the total
outlay required by the lessees, each
year, $4,000.
Only FIVE per cent. of the convicts
learned trades before becoming inmates
of that institution, and none who have
less than six years to serve are taught
trades at the penitentiary. At this time
the following trades are pursued by the
convicts: Cabinet making, blacksmith
ing, stone cutting, tailoring, shoemak-
ing, basket making, painting and turn
ing. In selecting trade for a new
conner, the convict is always consulted as
to his preference. The prisoners are all
we'll fed, and are in excellent health.
During the last two and halt years
only two prisoners have escaped from
the prison, one from the stoneyard and
the other from the stable, both of which
are outside the peEitentiary walls.
The following named are the officers
of the prison: Superintendent, DR.. W.
NJ. Wright; Warden, W. Matt Brown;
Assistant Warden, j. 7. Bland Physi-
clan, DR.. George P. Henry; Inspectors,
Samuel r. Anderson, DR.. Thomas Ma
nees and j. G. Sawyer At the time of
his death Elder Fountain E. Pitts was
Chaplain of the prison.

Supreme Court, who declined to sit in
the case involving judges salaries, and
not Judge Freeman. He had prejudged
the question upon an assurance that it

therefore excused himself when it was

H. Ward Beecher gives a prescription
for somnolency in church, which the
churchsleeping Memphian will do well
to study. 1t consists of sitting down
in rocking chair at home about the
time the second bell rings and taking
out nap there. 1t is well known to
scientists that the impure air in churches
produced by the breathing Of several
hundred persons causes somnolency;
the remedy is, therefore, ventilation,
and not Beecher's.

and made a speech to that body in which

the repudiated debt OF Mississippi, in a
style and with arguments which effectu-
ally determined his hearers to have as
little as possible to do with the securi-
ties of that portion of the United States. q"

DALLAS, July 80, 1874.

To the Editor Of the Dallas Herald:
I found in the "Courier DIES Etats
Unis" an article taken from some
French paper, and thinking that the
subject may prove OF great utility to
the farmers of the whole country,
furnish the subioine,i translation
at is estimated that the an
nual destruction To the wheat crop
of Europe caused 10y the wevil, amounts
to more than two hundred millions of
francs, or forty millions of dollars.
Some one discovered by chance n
means of getting rid of this destruct-
i've insect. 1t happened that in a
granary in which more than two hun
dred hectolitres ofwheat five thousand
six hundred and seventy-tive bushels)
were being ravaged by weevil, they in
troduced some hemp. not yet dry nor
beaten. Next day they were aston
ished to observe the rafters covered
with weevil making their escape to-
wards the ridge OF the roof. The
retreat of the insects lasted six or
seven days; after that, not single
one could lie seen. The same eXper-
fence has been had every year.
1t is necessary, every year at the
time of gathering the hemp (chanvre
feruelle), to sweep out the granaty,
aud to deposit in different places four
or five handouts of the hemp with the
seed in it. They procure the hemp
efore harvest by sowing it, not in
June, but the latter part of March. a
short time before harvest, it exhales
enough of odor to be put into the
granary."
Remarks-The last two sentences are
eqvivocal. | suppose that,
taking into consideration latitude and
locality, the hemp should he sown at
such a time that its maturity may CO.
incide with the appearance of the wee.
vii. Hemp belongs to the class diOecia
hence, as is indicated by the term SER
nellie" literally "fernale"), IL requires
the pistillate plant i. e. the seed-bear-
ing, and not the sterile one. / hope
this remedy will be thoroughly tested
by some intelligent farmer, surprising
that hemp sufficient in quantity and
quality for this purpose, can be raised
almost everywhere.
