the Gaol, and the Magistracy together, ss a matter of prime convenienco, se consideration of the transfer of the Gaol upon such grounds is a subject which may be considered. It might pay to move the Gail, or it might no-nost probably not; and if it were praved that it would not pay, then it ought not. to be moved.

Of one thing the Colonial autho rities at Home may rest assured, that this community entertain so strong a feeling on this point of Gaol constrúe- tion, that they will, if we do not very musli mistake them, use every influence at their command to prevent the wilful waste of publia money that would be Becessary to erect a model prison for the criminals of Southern Chino
