S.7. Rates of profit in pari materia.
1 Pensylvania Prison Rate, as per Experience,
£335.269.. 19<hi rend="underline">s</hi> 4d

Grounds of the statement made of this Rate. —
The source from whence it is deduced, is, An Account of the
Pennsylvania prison at philadelphia for three several
Quarters of a Year, following one another, the last ending
1 August 1796 as delivered into the Governing Body of that
State, and under the Title of "A Visit to the philadelphia
prison &.<hi rend="superscript">c by Robert J Turnbull of South Carolina,</hi> first
published at philadelphia, afterwards viz Anno 1797, —
republished by Phillips, George Yard Lombard Street. This,
for any thing I have ever heard, is the most recent account
of that prison that has ever been to be had in England.

The ensuing particulars are extracted from a very
extensive Table, the Title of which is as follows — viz "Abstracts
"taken from General Statements of the Amount of Labour
"done by each Convict, and at what Occupation, in the
"prison for the City and County of philadelphia, for
"three successive Quarters commencing from 1.st October 1795,
"together with the Amount of Provisions, Clothes &c furnished
"each Convict for the Quarters during the same period, which
"General Statements are contained in three Quarterly Reports,
"made to the Board of Inspectors, by the Clerk of the
"prison, on the 1.st Feb: 1.st May & 1.st Aug. respectively. —
