COUNTY PRISON.  Mr. E. V. Wu.tasms read the gaol report :--.•  , As the new Pzison Act is to come into use on the lat of April, 1878, the Governor is requested to call for tenders for meat, coal, groceries, for nine months up to the Ilst March, 1878, instead of six months as heretofore. Prisoners in custody—males, 77; females, 13 ; total, 90. In Infirmary—males, 3,• females, 0; total, 3. Number of prisoners committed this quarter, 179; same quarter last year, 116' , increase, O. This increase is chietly attributable to the commitments of 11 naval prisoners, and SM seaman belonging to the merchant service. No corporal punishments -Imre taken place in the prison for any , offence whatever during this quarter. Recommitments : this quarter, 47; corresponding quarter last year, 49; I decrease, 3. Disbursements this quartereC7B3 Bs. 6d.; same quarter last year. £775 19e. 3d.; increase, £7 90. 3d. Maintenance cost per head same quarter last year, Is. 3d. A male prisoner, who was received on remand for attempting to commit suicide, died the day following his reception, in the male infirmary. The verdict of the Jury at the Inquest was "Thai the deceased came by his death by his own hands, while in estate of temporary insanity." The conduct of the officers in their several departments has been satisfactory. In consequence of the alterations directed by the letter of the Secretary of State, dated 15th March, 1877, as to the taking of prisoners' photographs, the number will be less in future. The photographer is prepared to take the requisite number from the 12th May next (when the quarter terminates) to the 31st March, 1878, for £lO. R.wolved, "That the above tender be accepted." A sum not exceeding RI 10s, was allowed to No. 23 (Charles Fenian), whom term of imprisonment will shortly expire, to enable him to return home. His conduct has been good.

THE LATE SUICIDE AT OSMINGTON. To the Editor.  Sir,—! feel sure that you will kindly give me room in your paper to correct some mistatements that were made by Anna Emma Morley, at the coroners inquest, held at Gsmington, upon the body of her unfortunate husband, the samunt of which inquest, appeared in your last week's issue. She charges me with deceiving her husband, In getting him from Swansea. with briny only a wheelwrialit, with not provkllng them with • cottage, and with not paying her for work done. I engaged George Morley by letter, agreeing to give him 21a. per week and his house and garden, and these were his wages during the whole of the time that he was in my employ, exclusive of over time; he sometimes making as much as Os, per week overtime. I also muted a nice cottage and garden of Mr. Thomas Lowman, which they Occupied during the time they remained with ma. Than always had MOTS Painting to do all the rime that he VW with me tirallintg could accomplish, so that I have had to urge him on to greater quickness, and Indeed to Yet some work done in other ways in order to satisfy my customers, who have complained, with reason, at my keeping their carriages so long on hand, their detention being entirely mice to the slowness of the painter. As to my not paying bee for work done, I can only ante that I paid weekly for any work she did for me. Both the late George Morley end Anna Emma Morley have expressed (before witnesses) their satisfaction at their change In coming here, that his beim had been greatly innetitted by the change; his fellow-workmen can testify that be was happy and contented in his work, and was unwilling to leave it, but was oompellad to do songing to tile ungovernable temper of his wife, and I don't he to why that unhappineaa was entirely due to her tanager and profane tongue. Many are thankful that she is gory item the village, considering her ecantmeteedinto the way rizrof"adnyswho speech, ligt listen! to her. I remain, Sir, Your obedient servant. _
