HOUSE OF CoRREcTloN.-Weha had the pleasure on
Saturday of last week of making brief tour OF
inspection Of this new state institution at Rut-
land We confess that we had looked with some
distrust upon the scheme, and doubt now II it can
ever be made to he anything like sell-sustaining
institution, the principal hindanco to it being the
fact that the terms of sentence Of the inmates
are for so short time that no one can be found
who is willing to contract for their labor. The
buildings, however, are admirably located, and
wel-arranged. They are kept scrupulously neat,
and, when the outside walls are completed, would
seem to be well guarded against any attempt at
escape We trust the institution may be the
means Of ACCOMPLISHING much good.
