THE EoLsoM PRIsoN-Work has recently
been begun at the Folsom State Prison on a
wall which will extend entirely around
the grounds. It will te four feet in thick.
ness and twenty feet in hight. There has
been considerable Improvement en- the
grounds this spring, in the shape Of terrsciHg
and setting out of flowers along the walks and
in beautifully arranged plots. The season

quarries and on the ground improvements,
and when visitors are admitted by the whole
sale it is necessary to suspend work and lock
the prisoners in their cells, while on Sunday
the convicts are denied much of the usual
recreation and enjoyment, when visitors are
allowed sdmittsnce. On last Monday morr-
ing there were 29S prisoners confined in this
prison.
