ÏVom the Salem correspondence of the Oregonian we extract the * following interesting description, 4 of the new Penitentiary and 'its, management.“ The correspondent jufet’y acknowledges the large debt of gratitude due Governor Grover for the Penitentiary as it now is, and very properly estimates the valuable services of Superinten t dent Walkinds. We are glad to, note the fact that a bitter partisan < is capable of doinsr justice to polit ical opponents.’ It is an evidence of decided progress ip the right > direction : A visit to the Penitentiary will well repay those who take an in terest in such institutions. institutions. 1 ' The building is completed, tittle; more, than a year. It cost 1107,000 in tlian io / 4 cash; the convict labor was vab » ued at (57,000, ued; $57,000, making the total amount $164,000. The building^ I is of brick, made by the prisoners. The approaches, the grounds^ the finish, and the general appearance of the place are more like a gen tleman’s castle than a 'prison., TliQ: internal arrangements for the ac commodation, comfort, health, in tellectual and moral improvement ■ and safety of the prisoner« are al most everything that could be de > sired. The State owes a large debt of gratitude to Governor Grover for thiB institution. He took great interest in the plans^. construction and completion. .Mr*. W. H. Watkinds is the competent and efficient Superintendent. The discipline of the prison is almost perfect. The farm consists of 16Q # acres, and is being brought under, "h good cultivation by the prisoners. *•_ LJ The old Penitentiary buildings are being repaired aad fitted up for workshops for>the prisoners on an . extensive scale. A largo * ditch ii being cut by the prisoners, 5,600 foet long, twenty feqt wide at the bottom and twenty-eight at the top, to bring the water from Mill Creek to run the machinery of these Bhops. The water in the ditch will be four leet deep, having fifteen feet of a fall; - that will drive 175 horse-power by means of one of Laffers turbine water wheels. Wagons, buggies, wood< ware of all kinds, boots, shoes, clothes, leather, and a variety cf other useful articles, will be manu factured by the pinners. Gover nor Grover exercises the pardon^ ing power with proper discrimina tion. Superintendent Watkinds knows bow to encourage the well- disposed prisoners, and when tow be firm and decided with the tur > bulent and vicious. Provision ia made in the plan of the building for extending it when required. I There are eighty-six cells, with two beds in each. Some of the inmates have their cells ornament ed with pictures, and wild flowers gathered when working on the farm. Quite a number are great readers, and have access to. the prison library, consisting of 600 volumes, presented by the people ‘ of Salem. There; are ninety-six I prisoners in the Penitentiary at present; fifty-three of these com mitted their crimes when drunk; twenty-six from the indirect effects of strong driuk; six of them were; men of sober habits, and eleven of them arc Chinamen and Indians, committed for theft or burglary. Of the seventy-nine who com<. * mitted crimes from the effects of strong drink, either directly or in directly, twenty-eight were against * the person and fifty-one against tho 7 pro^rty. T q punish crime and . : í ■ reform the criminal is a gréât work to accomplish—for the• indi- f ■ vidiial and flak society; but to de < vise ways and means to jnreveni'. crim$ is a nobler work still..
