Since his confinement, he at first feigned insanity, but a few thorough trimmings by the officers, effectually cured him of his tricks, and he now readily performs his alloted tasks. Daily Routine Of Duty Performed At The ConNecticut State Prison By Its Officers. At daylight the bell is rung for the officers, who immediately repair to the guard-room. When it is sufficiently light, the deputy warden gives the signal for manning the walls, and the overseers take their keys, go to their several divisions, and again wait the signal, when they unlock, and march their men, with the lock step, to their respective shops. The convicts immediately commence work, and also begin at a given point in the shop to wash, which each man does in regular order before the breakfast hour. At 7 o'clock the bell is rung for breakfast, the convicts stop work, form into a line in their shops, and wait the signal of the bell, when they are marched into the prison yard, and form a line in front of their buckets. At the word right, each man turns to the right; the word Up is given, and each man takes his bucket upon his left arm, when they form into sections in close order, as marched from the shops; and at the word forward, they march in the same manner to the hall, where they are seated to hear the reading of the Bible and attend prayers. From thence they are marched around the cells, take their kids containing their breakfast as they pass the kitchen, and are immediately locked up. Each officer then reports the number of men in his charge to the deputy warden, who, finding it right, gives the signal of All's well; the watchmen leave the wall and repair to the guard-room; all the officers then go to their meal, except one in the hall, ..

Excerpt from Newgate of Connecticut The main design of the following has been to collect and embody facts relating to Newgate, the former prison of the State of Connecticut. There are many circumstances respecting the Mines, and also while it was kept as a prison, which are interesting, to those at least, who like the writer, reside in its vicinity, and who have noticed many of its scenes; and judging from the numbers who travel far to explore its caverns and the works which now cover its grounds, it will continue long to be an object of interest and examination - time will wear slowly upon its strength, and age will but add to its interest. Many inquiries are also made about it of those living near it when they travel abroad, and when it is known that they are familiar with its history. When Dr. Franklin resided in Philadelphia, having occasion to travel to Boston, and knowing the gift of many of the Yankees in asking questions, in order to satisfy their importunity and save time in his answers, he adopted the expedient of printing a number of cards, stating that he resided in Philadelphia, was a printer by trade, and on his way to Boston; these he gave to his questioners whenever they com-commenced their attacks upon him. This account, if it serves no general use, may at least, serve to answer many important questions. It is useful to record events in their day before they are forgotten, or are handed down as tales and traditions. If a record of the events connected with some of the monuments, castles and fortresses in Europe, or ruins in Central America, could now be obtained, it would be of vast interest to antiquarians, and would greatly assist historians to substantiate valuable history. When the aged in this vicinity are gone, and that soon must be, this prison fortress will doubtless remain; the traveller then will ask - Who built these towers? Why these huge grates, these trenches and these walls? How came these spacious caverns to be dug out of solid rocks, and why those rings and those fetters fastened to their massive sides? Surely the echo of these caverns cannot answer, nor the people who lived cotemporaneous with their use. Therefore, sufficient is said as an apology for these hasty sketches.
