PRISON MANAGEMENT.

The Massachusetts commissioners of
prisons have discovered aud reported a
fact which astonishes them and troubles
the people of the state, who claim to be
just little better than other folks. The
fact to which we refer is that while during
the past half century the population has
only trebled, the number of criminals has
increased fifty fold. Throughout the state
there is now one prisoner to every 400 in
habitants, and in Boston the prisoners
number one to every 222 of population.
Mr.. ANDREWS, for many years clerk Of the
criminal court at Salem, thinks he has
found an explanation for the remarkable
increase of criminals In the substitution of
of the "reformatory'' conduct of prisoners
for the punitive treatment formerly IN
vogue. Prison life is made so pleasan I
and attractive that many prefer it
to free existence where they must
rely upon their own efforts for
support. The prison is no longer the ugly
institution it once was, where hard fare
was given and hard work required, but is
made as pleasant as possible, the aim being
to reform, rather than punish the criminal
! If the effect of the humanitarian policy
which has been adopted In late years with
reference to the management of prisons
and the treatment of criminals is going tc
be to increase crime AMI enlarge the Jail:
for the accommodation of the crimina
classes, the public may forget its kindly
sentiment and return to the rule once il
vogue when prisoners werepunished aswel
as restrained and made to feel that theil
treatment was intended as an example
to restrain others from the commission o
| crime

course he can't back oct. The point that
Brown makes is evidently that going over
piece of ground rapidly, or even making
burrows of unexceptionable straightness at
uniform distance apart, is only an intro
ductory portion of farming, depending
with the same character of ground some
what on the coulter and somewhat on the
team. What he wants to demon
strate is results But VANNoRT may
reply that, with this condition,
the contest could not DO settled till after
election, and that BROWN is only sparring
ior time. OF course if BROWN won the
election on the preparatory contest, and it
should turn out next year that VANNoRT's
crop was the biggest it would be awkward
for b. to step down and out and let V. run
the gubernatorial plow the rest of the
term; So Democratic az THE HERALD is,
we are obliged to hold that Browns posi-
ton is scarcely tenable.
In these days of peoples parties, third
parties and farmers alliances, of sub
treasury loan schemes, ETC., it looks as
though there is an unnecessary amount Of
toadying both by Democratic and Repub-
lican politicians to the favors OF the
agriculturalists. We do not mean
there is any too much recognition given
to the interests and claims of the farmers,
and certainly the Republicans cannot be
accused of any of that, but there is, as we
think, little too much reaching out for
support in purely personal point of view.
We DO not believe that the agriculturists
| insist on one of their number for every Of
fee to be filed. The most sensible ones
know that the duties of the governorship of
states and of membership of legislatures,
ETC., require for such positions men who
are familiar with legal forms, with the
ordinary rudiments OF finance, and in gen
eral the course and effect of legislation.
In this view all such propositions as we
have loosely noted above are ridiculous.
AS well determine a congressional race by
billiard match, or a legislative contest by
game of base ball or high five. In the
case of gubernatorial candidates it might
be agreed to dispense with public speaking
and the discussion of the political issues of
the day, and instead give daily joint county
exhibitions of blowing, milking COWS, feed
ing swine, shearing sheep, and so forth
This at least would be better than making
burrows in stubborn glebe' of persona
character, narrowing up the feelings of the
adversary, or planting seeds Of strife anC
belligerency.

THE BALMACEDA TRAGEDY.

1t may, we think, be considered true that
BALMACEDA has committed suicide, al
though so many contradictory statements
have been set af1oat about him and affairs
in Chilli generally, that we hardly know
what to believe. The first story was that
he had crossed the mountains on his way
TO Brazil, another was that he had i'm
INJURED himself in monastery, third that
he had, under disguise of drunken sailor,
smuggled himself on board an American
vessel and sailed for our shores. These
were probably all invented by BALMAcEDA's
friends to throw the enemy off their guard !;
but it appears the Congressional party were
too alert to be deceived thereby, and the
baffled ex-president finding no avenue of
escape, and knowing an ignominious death
would speedily follow his capture, CON
Guided to take his life in his own hands
and so with a curse upon the heads of his
military supports for their base deception
and treschery, he shot himself with a
pistol.
One might have supposed that an atone
ment like this would have so far modera-
ted the hatred of the victors in the late
short struggle, that, whatever their pri-
vate satisfaction, they would have re-
Trained from open demonstrations of Joy
and savage glee. But, on the other hand
the event appears to have called forth q
jubilee. The holiday period was extended
the principal cities of the republic were
illuminated, and the tragic and bloody end
ing of the war turned into general fes
tival.
Evidently civilization has work yet to de
in South America.
