in my opinion very little deterrent effect for Chinese.

The number of Prison Offences during 1882 compares favourably with the previous year. viz:-

Cases Reported, discharged, Relieved, Punished Corporal

the previous years number in Gaol.

The Investigation was on 24th December last when there was a decrease by 50%. It seems to be that it will be sufficient if accommodation is provided in the first instance, instead of for 500 prisoners as recommended; provided that the plans are drawn so as to admit of further extension if necessary.

1881. 6557 - 1045, 8293,

1882. 3405 - 219. 898. 2510.

I have prepared two tabular statements which are intended to compare the quinquennial periods ending respectively with 1844 and 1882.

These tables exhibit the following results:-

Total number of persons sentenced to penal imprisonment

Averages for the 2nd period 714 3025 3195
