-ers, a space little if at all inferior, to the space herein requested
for a number which is expected to be 3 or 4 times as great in a few years.
Two thousand used to be the number of males alone in the Hulks
only: to say nothing of those who for want of room in the Hulks,
or from other causes, are consigned to New South Wales, to Newgate,
& to so many other Town as well as County Prisons —
Mr Blackburn's demand was such as admitted of reduction: but
after reduction of 70 or 80 per cent, the remaining allowance, for a number
still unlimited, will, it is presumed, not be deemed excessive.
