Six hun dred men unmanaclcd, unchained) out side nf the prison walls, with nothing te Indicate that they were prisoner except their striped felons' stilts, working away with a will, performing an honest day's labor nnd apparently proud of the result of their tell, is a sight te the visitor totally unexpected. Men who never In a free state did an honest day's work forgers, burglars, high wayman, murderers vie with each ether te sec who can de the most, nml strive te nnd de accomplish ns geed work ns that turned out hy free skilled labor. These men nre of nil ages, from u youth of sixteen te men bowed down bv three score years and ten men whose sentences range from one te titty-five years, while ethers have been sentenced for life. What is still mere remarkable, the "llfetimers," as they nre called, are said te be the most contented and licst workers, and these vv he in a free state are lazy, indolent and averse te labor of any kind are the most reliable and Industri ous. The secret of all this is the fact that the quality and service of their feed and the limited privileges they enjoy are dependent upon their be havior and the amount nml quality of the Inlier they perform. The eating depart ment of the prison Is divided fnle three grades, and is designated hy the prisoners ns the "liciin tnblc," "mill lieer nnd "mutton chop." The dining room for the "bean table" Is fitted up with tables consisting of a Blngle beard nlmut ten inches wide, upon 'which, about every three feet, is securely nailed n tin dlsli containing pepper and salt. The beans and ether rough feed nre served en tin plates, and knives nnd forks nre net pro vided. The feed is wholesome, but it must lie eaten in the most primitive style, nnd the prisoners arc net allowed te speak te one another during meal time. All new prisoners are placed at the "bean table," and it is net until their excellent conduct and industry commend there te the management that they are pro moted te the "bull-licef table."" Here the fate Is mere varied, the prisoners are seated at tables furnished with whole some beef, vegetables, etc. This is quite u step in advance of the "bean table, and manv prisoners never get beyond it. 'The "mutton-chop table" Is the height of the prisoner's ambition. Here he is seated nt a regular dining-table; he has a full complement of dishes, though all are of tin; he lias a knife and fork ; the table Is furnished with casters; he has a mutton stew, stewed beef, meats in variety, vegetables in seasenTar.dhei allowed "te converse freely" with his Tel"., lows. It Is a distinction he is proud of, one that he has worked hard te obtain, nnd one that lie will maintain no matter hew hard the struggle. The prisoners, me treated kindly; the "mutton-chop" men are shown great consideration by the etllcers, and from this class little or no trouble is ever experienced, for an infrac tion et the rules sends them te the "bean table," from w htch they nnd it difficult te again obtain what they have lest.
