Jntei'estmg Facts Concerning the Northern Prison. Os the 763 convicts in the northern prison 601 are single, 217 married and 45 widowers, says the Dispatch. The intemperate number 571 and the temperate 192. Os the total number 652 can read and write, 14 can read only and 97 can neither read nor write. The penitentiary has two inmates who were over 70 years of age at the I time of their conviction, while it con- 1 tains 109 under 20 years when sent up. The ages of the greatest number of inmates ranges between 20 to 25 years, of whom there are 233. Seven lire over 60 years of age. The prison wall, which has been standing since the penitentiary was erected here, is gradually decaying and needs attention at the hands of the legislature. The wall must be I repointed and the capping repaired The mortar has crumbled and fallen' away until the water from rainfall . runs into the wall. This causes the 1 wall to alternately freeze and thaw, and results in great injury. It is estimated that it will cost SI,OOO to make suitable repairs. The northern prison has a library fund of $1,779.43, which is in the care of Warden French, and as soon as additional room is afforded, he purposes to add materially to the stock of books on hand. A good library is a great boon to a prison of any kind. DB.LINKENHEUFS COUGH COMPOUND.
