While perusing the columns of a Southern paper

prised at reading the following: "Ded at the city

every respect, and if any of you can find moral
in this sad tale apply it to your own future lives
and govern yourselves accordingly.
Henry was born and brought up in Portland.
Me-. his parents were wealthy and respectable
people. He was entered at college. where he
received an excellent education. and had the

of good address, true friend and possessed Of
heart overfowing with kindness. Our acquan'
tance began at Oakland. Cal. He was hard drink
er. and often acted like one who had committed
a crime and striving to forget it. Later. when
our friendship became closer l learned a great
deal of his past life. He had been employed as pay
master for a railroad company and had decamped
with twenty-eght hundred dollars. Previous to
holding this pos ton. he had associated with Grim
inals. from whom he received his first lessons in
dishonesty. He continued in a criminal career
although his poole had made every effort to
trace and. if possible reform him. But already.
he had placed himself. forever, beyond their
reach. by committing additional crime which
'mp"lled him to fly and to sever forever. all
ties letween himself and his home.
To my knowledge. he never asked assistance
from his parents; never, by word or letter, would
he inform them as to where he concealed

his acquaintance, aforesaid in Oakland. After

from drink. and God only knows how many souls,
since then. he has sent to their graves.
Now here. dear reader. young man who
had every advantage to become prosperous in an
honorable pursuit. and yet, how sadly he

What Prisons May BE.

The Elmira Advertiser of Thursday last con.
tends that the prisons not reformatory be-
cause courts and court officers generally so dis
credit the claim of reformation of men having
served in prison and afterwards charged with
crime. One discharged convict charged with fresh
crimes is hardly the fair criterion by which to
judge all the others, and prisoners also: but
doubtless the Advertiser has struck down we'll
towards root of the rapid increase of crime in
this country. namely our faulty prison system.
The laws and prisons rely too much upon the ex-
pectation that men will be deferred from crime
by the pains of Imprisonment The fact u.s. the
worst prisons turn out the worst class of dis.
charged prisoners. This is so generally recog-
nized now that efforts have been and are being
made constantly to improve the condition of pris-
oners in prison. until the modern state prison
of civilized states supplies better sanitary condi-
tions, better food and clothing better opportuni-
ties for instruction and diversion than the classes
from which the criminals mostly come can posi-
bly, enjoy outside of prisons.
Thus the deterrent effect supposed to inhere in
the sentence of imprisonment, but which was new.
er actually there. is now assuredy absent so that
the prisons of to-day, in the absence of reforma.
tive results afford no valuable protection from
crimes except for the short periods of time prs.
ing prison establishments that are themselves
source of criminal contamination and conduct
The remedy is not such changes as contribute to
greater punishment. Certainly not for the sake of
punishment end), but is rather in such
changes of law and prison system as shall reclaim
the reclamable and forever restrain the remain.
