Tlie penitentiary is governed by a board of three dirccti)rs, one being nominated every year, and the term of service being three years, so that there is always a change going on in the direction, or at any rate tlio opi-ortu- nity for a change arises, without such violent disruption as migiit be feared if all the directors could be changed at one time. The system observed in the penitentiary may be brieny stated ns foUows: Every prisoner must wear prison clotliing, and sub- mit to the operations of the state barber; he is then instructed aa to the rules enforced in the penitentiary, with the penalties that will follow any transgression, and the rewards that attend upon full compliance. Every cell has necessary articles of furniture, to which the prisoner may add other prescribed articles, when he has earned the means to do so within the walls by actual labor. Cleanliness is strictly enforced, and silence is peremptory. There must be no communications between prisoners on pain o£ certain deprivations, should a discovery of any breach be observed. Books
