Beard of Ten Governors. ‘Tho Board met ut the Penitentiary, Blackwell’s Island. Present, Governors Townsend,§(in the chair,) Duke, ‘Nieman, Taylor, Henry, Dugro and Smith. Frem the weekly summary we learn that thereare 5,818 persons in the institutions, being a decrease of 27 since leat week. There have been 38 deaths on the Inland during the week; 1,208 discharged, and 98 sent to ‘Btate Prison. Gov. Duano denied the statement made in some of the papers that he bad offered a resolution to lower the ‘wages of carpenters. All he had said was, that the Board was paying more than outside employers. “Gov. Tomax read what purported to be an affidavit of Mr. Stearns, of Randall's Island, in which he acknow- edged to being interested in the transfer and sale of pro- perty en Randall’s Island.
