of saving it. The main buildings have
gone and the others are going fast. The

in 1852 and were in good repair. The loss
is estimated at $l50,000. Insurance not

an acre of around and were arranged in
I the form of a hollow square, beside the
wings were 100x50 feet and the end wings
slightly larger. All these wings were four
stories in height, with the exception of
the south wing. Between $50 and 200 in
mates were in the workhouse, and Super
intendent Blackstone, aided by his corps
or assistants, did his utmost to remove
every one from the building. About

hospital.
The inmates were quickly removed and
conveyed to place of safety. The in
mates assisted the officers in removing the

been irreDarablo. Thegovernor issued an
order empowering whoever be in charge
OF the institution TO remove the prisoners,
of whom there are eighty. Where they will
