,Sin—Under the appointment
had the Aka:tor- to at'your hands, I have
continued during- the present year to - vlsit the
prisons and almshouses of .the ilommenw,ealth.
It la grateying to beable to Oily that in some
localities efforts are being made, by the erection
of new ibuildinps/Vvith , modern - ,iinprovainerds
and appliiintei, -to better 'the 'condition and add
to the comforts of those- who may be driven,
through poverty and of to ask for public
to SI n tea tut;
The light that has dawned upon these counties
I regret too say has not yet penetrated the dark
ness which has Op long shrouded ':o then; the citi
zens wherebf appear not to understand that it is
their duty as Chrlstians to provide for the poor
and friendless. , , .., ,' i . , r ,
The means' adopted for the care of these unfor
tunates in some counties of the State would do
no credit to an uncivilized or savage people. No
house orligine?WprOVlded by the county where
their wants can be supplied; no well-appointed
hospital, where disease can be properly treated;
but all who aro unable to takepare of, themselves
are entrtifitid id thetender mercies of 'the -.Tem
./afar who bids the //mese for the _privilege of
board:rig them.
I do not charge that ail who are thus : `'sQlfl at
public outcry" to the loWest bidder are starved,
neglected, or abused, but I do contend that the
system is liable to great abuse, espeetallyas these
patients are scattered over the country and can
not be under the supervision of ,Ihe t direotors of
the poorin - rother officers appninted . for thatpur
pose, as they can be when provided' for- in the
hospital for, poor-house ot the county.
I Lied rhat the same, short,elghtedveonomythat
falls to provide hospitals and almshouses for the
unfortunate, prevails - in the gonatruction and
management of the prisons nt these Counties.` It
is in the•tells of theselalferable Bevels that . the
insane arocaufincd::,. - There being no other 'place
provide d for thenkihey are handed over to the
care of the county jailor, who, from want of ex
perience. cannot give them proper attention and
the treatment tlie,yrequire, which adds, to the suf- .

The evils resulting fronisuch a system, know
flout peeping i 'observation; aro great, and a
remedy *mild he ppplied. I believe that nothing
short ot .legislativs; enactment will ever reach
them, or effeet - refcrm. -
I would therefore respectfrillY call the atten
tion of *calf Excellency, and through , you that
of the Stater Legislature, to the great necessity
that exists for 'enacting laws to remedy these
evils by., 7 cOmpeilltig' these counties to provide
comfortable places for their femme and Imbecile
poor.
In some of the counties visited during the year
I found that a lively interest had been awakened
upon the subject .of prison construction and
prison diseiplin - C - When I visited the prison in
Hollidaysburg, in Blair county, in the year 1867,
I found sit' to be a dilapidated and worn-out
building,-teVer having been in any way suitable
for the purpotes of a prison. , Ricapes were fre
quent, and criminals could not be securely held
there unless confined in chains.
The sanitary condition was extremely bad, and
no order- or discipline could be maintained
among the prisoners.
I was &impelled to_speak of it as I found it, and
in my ndtes pronounced eta nuisance that ought
to be abated. Since that visit the county author
ities have taken measures for the erection of a
new building--one comporting more with mod
ern 'delta , of-prison crehiteetnre; and in order
that this might be done, they secured the services
of Mr. Edward Haviland,' the architect, to design
and superintend its erection..
_
The building Is advancing towards completion,
and bide fair to.he all that is dealred. It will con
tain twenty:night cells; that number being
deemed sufficient - for present use, ample room
being left for tuture,extension.
Each cell is'intended for a - Work shop, being
eight feet wide, fifteen, feet, lOng, and eleven feet
high, making room enough for the inmate to
s w ig o n rk ed at h * bri li . a t e NIT branch of in:dustry may be
These cells are well-lighted and perfectly dry;
each one is provided with a water-closet so trap
ped that it cannot be offensive. Water for drink
ing and Other purposes is introduced, and each
cell is effectually warmed and thoroughly venti
lated. The window-Bash is Bo arranged that it
can be opened or closed for the admission of fresh
air, at the will of the prisoner. A bell-pull placed
in each cell will enable the prisoner at any time
to call the keeper.
The building when finished will be a credit to
the county, and tbe authorities deserve the
thanks:of all who desire that offenders'and trans
gressors against the laws of the land may be se
curely held, and at the same time receive treat
ment that will tend to reform rather than to
drive them, deeper into crime.
The authorities of Lycoming county are about
completing the prison commenced in the spring
of 1867. 'it is a substantial, well-arranged build
ing. The warming and ventilation are of the
most approved kind. The commissioners expect
to have the premises ready for the reception of
prisoners by the first day of April, 1869.
The Balls County Prison has had a new block
added tolt, consisting of fifty-one cells. It was
finished during the, past summer, and is now oc
cupied by prisoners.
The convicts sent by the courts of Berks county
to the Eastern Penitentiary were, upon the com
pletion of these cells, taken back to Reading,
and are now confined in that prison.
The citizens of Northampton County seem to
be fully awake to the necessity of providing a
secure, and at the same time a comfortable
prison for the punishment and reform of their
convicts.
To thln end they secured the services of Mr.
Edward Haviland, an architect, who has made
prison construction a specialty. fits design for
the prison of Northampton county stamps him
as a proficient in his profession, and as a gentle
man who understands what kind of a building is
required in order to carry out perfectly the sys
tem of orison discipline peculiar to the State of
Pennsylvania.
This prison is being erected in the town of
Easton, upon elevated ground, adjoining the
court-house. It differs in some respects from
any other of the recently-erected county prisons,
yet the main features of the Pennsylvania system
are observed, and in the minor details many im
provements are introduced. The cell corridor,
instead of extending out from the keeper's resi
dence, as in other prisons, is placed at right
angles across the main entrance or passage. By
this arrangement the kitchen, bakery, infirmary,
manufactory, store-room, and other offices are
brought in close juxtaposition with the cell
building, instead of being placed at the end of a
loncorridor.
The fresh and foul air flues, instead of being
tin, are of cast Iron glazed on the inside. The
corridor. is one hundred and seventy feet long, fif
teen feet wide, and thirty feet high, open from the
floor to the arched ceiling, and wholly unob
structed.
The entire building is fire-proof, not only in the
cell wing but in the keepers' residence and
omees. The stairs and galleries surrounding the
upper tier of cells are of iron, so arranged as not
to obstruct the light or air. The ventilation,
sewerage, and the mode adopted for the warming
of this building are as near perfection us has been
arrived at In buildings of this character. A very
important feature in this prison is the introdue-
Lion of an infirmary; for, though the cella are
large enough for the treatment of ordinary cases
of sickness, yet hospital room is desirable In the
treatment of some dlsca , es, especially when the
attendance of a nurse is necessary.
Altogether this may be taken as a model for
country prisons, but this is even yet susceptible
of further Improvement, which, no doubt, will be
made in the next one erected in a county where
the authorities manifest the same interest in the
matter as those of Northampton county evidently
do.
In August last Ivisited the prison now, being
erected in Allentown Lehigh comity.
Mr. G. A. Ancbback is the - architect who de
designed . the building and ie superintending the
work. The resin features of this prison .are
strictly in accordance with those recently erected
in other parts of the Eftate,where the 'authorities
honestly intend to enforce the dLscipline called for
by the laws of the Commonwealth.
The ground upon which the building stands is
well chosen, there being ample space around it
for a free circulation of air and good ventilation,
with excellent facilities for drainage. The ma
terial used in its construction is of superior
quality, and the workmanship (especially the
masonry) of the most substantial character.
The commissioners of the county, under whose
direction this work is done, have shown gold
Judgment in adopting the design presented by
Mr. Anchback, and in employing him to super
intend the work, as he is evidently master ut his
profession.
I have in the foregoing pages given your Ex
cellency a brief account of my labors during the
past year, with a short description of some of the
prisons now In course of erection. In all herein
alluded to I have found great improvement over

The Insurrection In Cuba•
BevArra, Jan. 3.—General Lersandi held a
grand review to-day of the troops in and around
the city. The display was - very fine, and was wit
nessed by large cirowds of citizens.
No news lately have been received from Count
Valmateda, who, at last accounts, was on a line
between Nuevitas and Bayamo.
The Gaceta publishes an account of a skirmish
between the troops and the insurgents on the 26th
ult.,in the vicinity of Manszanillo, and claims a
victory for the Government No statement of the
losses:on either, side are given.
HAvdmt, Jan 4:—The newly-appointed Cap
tain• General of Cuba, Dolce, arrived this morn
lug from Cadiz: , He disembarked at noon, and
was conducted to the Palace, where he was in
stalled and took possession of the government.
None of the demonstrations which it was ex•
peeted would be made by both Spaniards and
Cubans 0111316 arrival look place. The ceremo
nies of reception were of a formal character, and
passed off quietly.
The Viceroy brings with'him a number of Gen
eral officers and civil employes. Ho was also
accompanied by Bishop Mortinez, of the Diocese
01 Havana, who was some time ago banished to
Spain by Lersundl.
Message of the Governor of LOOistitna.
The Louisiana Legislature met yesterday. A
quorum of both Houses was present.
No business was done in the Legislature except
the reading of the -Governerls message, a large
portion of which is devpted to the late election,
its issues and effects at large as well as in
Louisiana. The following paragraphs tom the
political portion of the message, are samples of
its tone
In many parishes the late election was the oc
casion of most disgraceful acts of intimidation,
culminating, in several instances, in scenes of
massacre chocking to the sense of civilized men,
and only finding parallels in the annals of savage
warfare.
These instances of savage cruelty, unprovoked,
but wilifnl and premeditated, seem to have been
instituted by the hostility of certain classes to
the laws of Congress, by which the government
has embodied the colored population into the
body politic, and vouchsafed to them equal po
litical civil rights. He states that in reply to ap
plications for troops, orders were issued which
might be construed to mean something in
Georgia, but which in Louisiana might be said
to consist only of words; that these orders were
made public, and served only to inform the law
less that they need have no fear from ths t quar
ter, and could prosecute their anarchical schemes
to suit their purpose.
He takes an encouraging view of the financial
condition of the State, the entire bonded debt,
exclusive of bonds held and owned by the State,
being $6,750,000, the floating debt nearly $200,-
000, which latter can be cancelled by the special
tax already levied, and a surplus half million
left. He believes aid will be extended by the
General Government towards regulating the
levees; has no doubt that the United States Mint,
in this city, could be obtained from the Govern
ment as a contribution for use as the State capi
tal: urges the Legislature to adopt a school sys
tem without di4inction of color; recommends
the revision of the charter of New Orleans. and
c.,oses with an appegl for forgetfulness and for
giveness for the past, and in the latter spirit
recommends the abrogation of the ninety-ninth
article of the Constitution—the disfranchising
article.
Feline Sagacity.
A. New Hampshire paper tells these stories:
"Last year Mr. Charles Edgerly, of Mere
dith, owned a cat which was a regular . hun
ter. He would often go off and bring in rab
bits. If any of the family went berrying,
Tommy would go too and devote his ener
gies to wild game. If he became separated
from the party, he would climb a tree and
ascertain the direction to head himself to
find them. He would catch birds on trees,
and the boys of the family, knowing the pro
pensity of squirrels to take to fences and stone
walls when in danger, would put him on a
wall and alarm the game. One afternoon
Tommy caught fifteen squirrels In this man
ner. He would wait any length of time
when nut down in a place and told to stay
there.
"One day he brought a rat and laid it at the
feet of Mr. Edgerly, who took out his knife
and skinned it. Pussy surveyed the operation
pleased at it. Mr. Edgerly said, 'go get another,'
with intense interest, and seemed highly
and the cat went off and returned at intervals
during the day with three more, which
were duly skinned under feline superin
tendence. Mr. Edgerly told the cat that he
would skin all the rats he could catch; and
henceforth pussy made it his sole occupa
tion to catch the rodents and see their hides
removed. The skins of the rats were
fastened on the barn at the distance of a
few feet from the ground. Thirty-seven
trophies were in time displayed on the barn.
One day this feline Nimrod brought in a rat
and laid it at Mr. Edgerly's feet. He was
busy at the time and could not gratify the
animal with the usual skinning operation.
The c•at laid it at his feet three successive
times, and was finally repulsed in such a
manner that Tommy went off with his back
and tail up in the peculiar stiff gait which en
raged animals have. From that day not a
rat would he catch, though other small game
continued to suffer as of old.
"Put now comes the wonderful part of the
tale. On the night of the day on which he
became so mortally offended, Tommy went
out to the barn and tore down the hides of
the thirty seven victims to show his resent
ment of the insult. Such a case rarely is beard
of, and so we record it for our readers,young
and old. Though he would keep all his old
habits, such as skating, (for he would slide in
the best manner be was able, on the ice,
wherever the boys went) he never again was
known to catch a rat to the day of his death,
which happened some months after by being
caught in a-fox trap."

Bismarckiams.
TOME1410:11 for the Cincinnati commerciil from the
Burnam; Book.) _
Bismarck's mother waa not a(noble - Tady - , -
but a commoner's thrughter; her name was
Louisa Wilhelmina Menken and she was a
daughter of Secret Cabinet ' Councillor Men -
ken, who served Frederick the Great,: his
successor, and„Frederiek Williatif i the Third,
and was lorikeenninti, thlt °time, as" it
Liberal, for which reason he was dismissed
by Frederick William IL, and replaced by
Bishofswerder. The daughter, who was a
little over sixteen years old when she married
Charles William Ferdinand, Yoh SBlSatiticks
Schoenhausen, is iald.to have hortfe a strorig
intellectual resemblance to her father, and
notto have felt at home in theist(' aristuaraey.,
From the very first she was desliOns 16 bite
her son,Otto,whci was bond on the Ist of April,
1815, enter the diplomatic, ,career, o hopes°.
she hoped that T he z would= make Misfortune
most rapidly in that direction. If,these ex
pectations were fulfilled, long after the,
mother's death (in 1839), it was owinglo'
mere accident;
Otto von Bismarck:was educated in Berlin,
partly in boarding-schools and partly at the;
Frederick William Gymnasium and the Grails
Kloster Lyceum. After studying law at
Gottingen and Berlin, and passing the state
examination as "Auscultator," he was
attached to the Berlin city court. - - . 4 , •
From that time dates the following anec
dote: Bismarck had to question a genuine son
of Berlin. whose, inmertinenctr irritated 7 hira
so greatly that he' exclaimed, 'at' last, "Shop
your impudence, or I , shall kick you out. "
The presiding Judge, who ho was present, said,
soothingly, "Mr. Auscultator, kicking out
here is my business alone." The examina
tion proceeded; but soon after Biel:nark was
again so exasperated that he sprang to his
feet and cried. "Sir, stop your impudence.
or I shall have you kicked out by the pre
siding Judge."
He never allowed his superiors to treat him
superciliously, especially not in their non of
ficial intercourse with him ; bureaucratic
haughtiness was then already exceedingly
distasteful to him, and as neither' a 'sharp
tongue nor a malicious spirit were wanting to
him, he generally got the better of those who
thought they could put him down by pre
sumptuoue and pompous conduct. Wnen
Bismarck was employed in the administra
tion, one of his superiors forgot one day that
the independent young man was present,
stepped to the window and commenced
drumming on the pane. Bismarck imme
diately stepped to the next window and
drummed there the Dessauer March. Tne
same superior, on s mother occasion, kept
Bismarck waiting for a whole hour in his
an te- rou m, apd to his abrupt question,' W a at
do you want?" Bismtrck replied, "I had
come to ask of you leave of absence; but
now I went to offer you my resignation."
Very agreeable to Bismarck was his sojourn
at Aix la--Chapelle, where be worked under
the then President, Count Arnim Boytzen
burg. At that fashienable watering-place he
got acquainted with a great many foreign
tourists whom ho acconipanied on their ex
ctueions. Unfortunately, however, this
pleasant life involved him in pecuniary em
barrassments which afterward caused him
much trouble, when he, it! COtijUDCtiOtt With
his brother, undertook the management 'of
his father's estates. At that time he was
even subject to fits of hypoeliondria; which
did not prevent him, however, from leading
a somewhat wild life at Kniephof, thaestate
on which he lived, to which he was indebted
for the nickname "Mad Bismarek.7, Koiep
buff was at that time called '° Knitephof.
(Drinking Farm.)
Alter his father's death, in 1845, Otto von
Bi-marek inherited, beside K. itephof, the
family -se i at, Schoenhausen , In Old Branden
burg, where he took up hie abode, and was
appointed "DeichhattPtniarin." 'His private
letters, especially those addressed at that
time, to his beloved sister' Malvin% indicate
very plainly that he longed for a field of ac
tion engrossing his whole attention, and
which would, at the same time, gratify his
ambitious spirit. At the same tine he showed
that be was tired of • bachelor life. His
wishes, in this respect, were fulfilled on the
28th of July, 1840, by his marriage to Miss
Johanna von Puttkammer, with whom he
had got acquainted at the house of his friend
Maurice von Blankenburg, the well
known leader of the Prussian con
servatives. Pious old Baron von Puttkam
mer, at Reinfeld, was not a little frightened
when "Mad Bismarck" applied to him fir his
daughter's hand. He was almost dumb
founded at what seemed to him a most im
pertinent proposal, and he felt strongly
tempted to send the young man home with a
point-blank refusal. But his daughter joined
her tearl ul prayers to those of lute then de
cidedly sentimental Bismarck, and the old
gentleman had finally to give his consent, to
get rid of their importunities, which he did
not without very serious misgivings as to the
fate which he thought awaited his poor, in
fatuated daughter. The young lady's mother,
however protested to the last against the
match, But afterward she became the Warm
est Bleed of her distingnished son-in-law.
On hie wedding trip Bismarck happened to
fall in , with King, Frederick William the
Fourth at Venice; the King immediately in
vited him to dinner, but I3ismarek had no
clothes fit to be worn at the royal table, and
he,had some difficulty in borrowing a suit,
which did not fit him, and in which he pre
sented a rather ludicrous appearance; bin.the
charms of his conversation attracted the
King's attention to such a degree that Fred -
erick William the Fourth did not lose sight
of, him anymore, and always . treated him
with great ditainction.
Few persons" are aware that Count Bis
inarck wears, among his many orders, also
the medal given only to persons that have
saved a human life. In the summer of 1842,
when he participated in the Manmuvres of
the Hargard•Land wehr lancers at Lippehne,
and was just standing on the bridge built
across the lake, his groom, Hildebrandt, who
was watering his horse in the lake, got be
yond the animal's depth and sank to the bot
tom. Bismarck jumped after him into the
lake and caught hold of him; but the unfor
tunate groom clung to him so awkWardly
that Bismarck had to go down with him to
the bottom before he was able to disengage
himself from his arms. Both the master
and his servant were believed to be lost;
but Bismarck had succeeded in free
ing' hitheelf from the fatal embrace;
he [emerged from the 'water, and
dragged the senseless groom after him. Hil
debrandt recovered rapidly, and Was next day
alreadrquite well. When the medal which
he received ;for this act of 4eroisoi.vras yet
the only one that adorned his breast, one day
a distinguished diplomatist asked him, per
haps in a 'sneering tone, what sort of order
that was. "I ant in the habit of saving hu
man liyes occasionally"' replied Bismarck,
promptly and very gravely.
The peasants, it is w,qll known, often put ,
eharacternitic phrases, which gradually be
come mottoes. into•itiernodthe of noble fam
dies. , For instance, in Brandenburg they say
that the motto of the Schulenburg family is
"Higher and higher;" of the Lzenplitz's,
"Straight ahead;" of the Alvensleben's, "I do
not ever and of Bismarck, "Not enough by
along sight."

The old journals of Congress contain some
curious facts on this subject of the division of
the Northwest Territory. By one proposi
tion gravely debated before the passage of
Mr:Jefferson's plan, on the 22d of April,
1784, the territory north of the Ohio and east
of'the Mississippi was to have been parti—

lines, after the block pattern of our township
plates. ` ''his, it was thought, would hsvo
