ALBANY Feb. 12.-Iho term of Office of Louis D..
Pilsbury rs Superintendent of Prisons will expire
on Wednesday next. For five years he has mau-
aged the prisons of the State. From being inStitu
tons that yearly compelled large expenditures in
their behalf he has transformed them into self
supporting ones. 1t was predicted when the Con-
stitutiona amendments passed aboIiShing the
State Prison inspectors who formerly had
charge of the prisons and substituting for
.lfs;i a gle officer with the same pow
ers that the prisons would be made self
supporting Mr. Piisbury has fulfilled that predic-
ton. 4 contrast of his administration with that of
the Inspectors will be read with interest by tax
payers. During the four years and five months end
Cd February 2S. 1877. while the prisons MI
der the control OF the Board of Inspectors the
pcnditurcs for ordinary support exceeded the
ings as follows: 1878, $507,2s9 06 1874.
$4i1 $50 93; 1875 $372, 1875 G5; 1876,
$GO5, ,oIO 53; SIT five months). $2l6.05s 50
total, s., ,232, ,5l4 50.
For the four years and seven months
ended September 30, 1881. under Super
ntendent Pilsbury. the excess of expendi-
turcs over earnings was as follows: 1887 seven
rlouths $1Ol 1862 54; 1878, 1890 40
1879, $20,374 IS; 1850, $lS,0S6 9S. In 1851
there was surplus of S564 30, that tie total ox-
cess for lS77-Sl was $207, ,049 so. Dcdncting the
excess of expenditure from 1877 to 1881 from that
for 1S73-77 shows aggregate reduction of
$2,O25 AGA 50.
There has been SOHO gossip among politicians
about Mr. Plsbury's probable successor. For such
an important Office there have becn jnguliIly
few men named seeking the place
One has been named with curious persist
ency who is not seeking the Office, nor
has he any friends seeking il for him. as is some
times the case. This is Lewis +. Payn, ex- United
States Marshal for the Southern District of New
York Mr. Fayn is not a candidate for the Office
and furthermore wold not take il if nominated by
the Governor and confirmed by the Senate The
other candidates will have free field far as he is
concerned. 1t is to becXl cced that the Democratic
Senate viii scrutinizo closely any person nominated
by the Governor for the office of Superintendent.
Hats have been uttered, it is said by the Tammany
Senators, that they will oppose the confirmation Of
any man as Superintendent who is not an opponent
of the present ~ of letting ont the labor Of the
convicIs to contractors. Mr. PIlsbury by the use
of this contract system. had made the prisons self
supporting. Some of the contracts which he has
made for the labor of the cOnvicts extend beyond
his term Of office The SYSTEM therefore, could not
be aholished at one blow.

INADEQUATE PAY OF THE CORPS.
In conversation with correspondent of
THE TRIBUNE Congressman Cox, of New York,
spoke highly of the work done by the Life
Saving Service, whose benefactions, he said,
have been 10000 lives and more than
81 100000 saved. Mr.. Cox explained the
provisions of q bill, introduced by him and
now before the Commerce Committee, which
is designed to improve the service. The in
adequacy Of the pay of the men employed in a
dangerous service and the consequent danger
of disbandment were commented upon. The

other officers of this service. Efforts made to
bend President Garfield and Secretary sherman and
more recently Secretary Foger in the direction OF
party appointments in this service. 1t is to their
credit that they resisted such unthinking appeals
If the pay of the keepers and others DO increased
there will be more temptation to distort this service
to party ends. It shond be resisted The clause
in the bill gives the Supervising officers not only
pretext but good reason in the law to repel such
advances. There are bills pending in Congress as TO
