ALBANY, March 10, 1809. ‘The report of the special committee to inquire fito the affairs of State prisons, appointed at the last session of the Legislature, will appear to-morrow. ‘The report embraces about 120 pages, and is under- stood to have been written by William D, Murphy, of Albany, under direction of the comanttee. A reformation in the prisons of our State was the great object in view in the appointment of the com- *mittee, and no doubt, if acted upon by the Legisia- ture, the suggestions and recommendations offered will be of incalculable benefit to all our penal institutions, An entire change of our present system of prisons to what is known as the Irish convict system is urgently recommended. Also the establishment o’ another prison in the State, to relieve the present State prisons from their present over crowded condition. An entire abolition of all forms of corporeal panisement is also recommended. ‘This 18 probably the first time ever such a thorough cane in the discipline of the penal mstitutions, in this or any other country, as been recommended; but the reasoning by which the committee enforce the theory that yoo eam control convicts more suc- cessfully through moral than mere coercive means, is, certataly, very conciusive. In this connection there is a law seggested making, of marks, modelied after the 1 system, the fength of the term of every convict depend im a great measure upon his conduct while in prison. There is also recom- mended an entire abolition of the contract system, and the substitution tn place thereof of State em- ployment, which, for the present, however, is only recommended for Clinton aud Sing Sing. At Au- burn it is proposed to work tue convicts upon con- tracts until we shall first have had a brief ex- perience of the abolition of the system at the other two prizons, With these improvements it is claimed that the prison will not only be rondered self-nus- taining, bat bata pay a handsome revenue into the treasury of the St ale.
