No 9 1, P. 41. "Few places of confinement can be under worse regulation
"than the New-Prison, . . . . The arrangement of the

No 10 2 Pp. 42,43. "Four years ago . . . . plan and estimate . . . . laid
"before the Court; the business, was postponed sine die, under the
"idea, that the County rate, already burdened in a great variety
"of ways, would be found inadequate without great inconvenience,

"who certainly feels, as much as any man, the importance of
"restraining vice, and of improving morals, to the welfare of society.ca*
