Prison Labor In England.

A report recently published gives a
fair idea of the amount and value of the
labor produced in English prisons. AT
Wandsworth 1000 prisoners produce
goods of the value of $50, oC0 per annum.
The labor of 1000 prisoners at Pen
tonville only yields s32.5co per annum,
but at Norwood Scrubs the same
number are worth S1o0,ooO every year.
The various objects manufactured from
raw materials are brushes, bags, mat
tresses, clothing, leggings and shoes,
besides large number of articles made
by carpenters, blacksmiths, tinsmiths
and bricklayers. All the bags and boxes
used in the general post Office and by
the admiralty are made in British pris-
cns.-Chicago Chronicle.
