Robinson SUBSChmE FOR The York Herald, $1,00 a year, In a few weeks the time will have ar- rived when the ratepayers of this county will be required to choose who shall have the management of their county affairs 'for' the coming year. The duty is a serious one, and on its proper perfor- mance depend, at the present crisis, not only the financial, but perhaps also much of the social and commercial well-being and prosperity of the county, and there- fore it behoves, now more than ever, to send such men to our respective councils, ,fis shall watch with a jealous eye both over the public chest, and the subjects of general legislation. The recent acquisi- tion by the county of the York Roads, and their proper management, especially cell forf men of unblemished integrity. The stéadilyinereasing taxation requires a thorough sifting. ' Add to this, that the removal of the county town to a more central situation will doubtless, as its importance demands, occupy the atten- tion of the next countycouncil to a very considerable extent, and it is at once evi- ;,dent how much depends on the approach- ing contest. I ' RICHMOND 'H‘lLL_ DEC. 8, 1865 ' We would suggest to the ratepayers, that meetings should be called at once in the various VVerds and Townships, for the purpose of ascertaining the views of the present councillors, and if necessary nominating their successors. Upon the ,question of removal especially, there should'be no misunderstanding, As we 1 have before pointed out, at the polls is the proper: plaice to, settle the question, , and a. great opportunity will be lost if it is not'made a test, and its support de- imanded as a prerequisite to election. 7 HOWever valuable a public servant, we 'eaunot afford elect an ' opponent of a. ,anea‘surc so necessary, and laden with so , many benefits; and especially so, as : inauy others may be found, haying in point of ability, in belligenoe and integrity, equal claims upon the electors, and wil- ’ ling besides, to give this much desired _> measure 'their‘hearty support. Such are the men for the occasion, and for such, when’they come forward, we bespeak a liberal support. In Ward N6. ,2, Markham, several candidatesfvkoes‘srs. Gormley, Marsh, Newberry, and Wilmot,‘. are mentionefl. ‘In Ward No. 2, Vaughan, Mr. Thomas Watson is going to oppose Dr. Langstnfi. A meeting or the electors has been called .at Bumble’s Tavern, Maple, to nominate :a fit and proper person to represent that Ward. From other districts we have no authentic information. \Ve have not space in the present issue to argue the merits of this separation ques- tion IOX‘ the benefit of those not already posted. Nor do we deem it necessary. Again and again we have demonstrated that by the present connection the county is seriously the loser financially, besides being hindered in its internal development and subjected to numberless inconveni- ' ences. Self interest and public spirit point out the remedying of this grievance asour first duty, while the coming con- test obviously offers itself as the mos' fitting and legitimate opportunity of seâ€" curing success by the election of a county, council pledged to urge the measure.

Municipal Elections. The Annual Report foi‘ the Inspector of Prisons and Asylums for 1864,Ahas been published, and abounds in interestâ€" ing and valuable information. Blue books are very frequently dry and unsa- tisfactory, dealing with subjects of tri- fling interest to the general .public, or dealing with them in such a manner as to deprive them of whatever interest they might otherwise ‘possess. But this volume is tar-pleasing .exeeption. , Com- piled by gentlemen of ability, experience and unquestionable integrity, its state- ments may be relied on, both for sound- ness of views and correctness of detail,‘ and should serve as authority on all‘mat- ters to which they relate. Since the i great social problems, with respect to the ‘causes and preventatives of crime and lunacy, are best illustrated by facts and figures, we shall draw freely upon those furnished, in attempting ‘to place before our readers a few of the most significant facts and conclusions, which demand the careful consideration of all interested in the public wellâ€"being. The total number lof' gaols for both Provinces is set down at. 94 g in Upper Canada 33, Lower Canada 21. During the last year the inmates of these were as follows : Men . . . .3,962 Women. .-1,985 Boys. . . .. 311 Girls. . . .. 103 Total excess of prisoners in Lower Canada over Upper Canada. . . . Excess of female risoners in Lower Canada over pper Canada. . . . Excess of male prisoners in Upper ' Canada over Lower Canada. . . . Excess of boys in Upper Canada over Lower Canada . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Excess of girls in Upper Canada over Lower Canada . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 294 759 381 .54 20 The total number of those commit-ted the first time only, 7255; previously committed, 5761, of which Lower Caâ€" nada furnishes 3493. The amount reâ€" alized from the labor of prisoners was, in Upper Canada, $693; in Lower Ca- nada, $3279 40, while the cost of main- tenance, including rations, salariespfuel, &u., was in the former $81,134, and in the latter $53,820â€"-total $134,954. Out of the total escapes, 42, 37 were from Upper Canada. jails. The daily ex- penses of rations per prisoner, ranges from 6 to 25 cents, but in inost instances is between 10 and 20 cents. In Toronto it is at the low rate of 5; cents, yet the total outlay s11m§,up to $14,755, an amount exceeded only by that of Mon- (real. The state of the jails generally, with respect to management, is reported as satisfactory, though in some instances the promiscuous association of prisoners is severely and justly condemned. To this fact, together with the absence of. hard labour, may be attributed much of the hardening and contaminating influ' ence of gaol life, especially upon the young criminal, and the utter failure of such sham punishment to produce deter- rent efi’ects, or create a wholesome fear of subsequent incarceration. How little the punishment is dreaded is told plainly enough by a return. of more than two-ihii‘ds of those imprisoned as old ofi'cnders. In fact; in the majori- ty of instances, goal life, regarded és a punishment, is a mere farceâ€"a time of elegant leisure; employed in the planning of more mischief, and rendered tolerably endurable by the assistance of jolly comâ€" pany, cards, and tobacco. Most of the goalers have no means of keeping pri- soners employed, and many have neither the nerve nor the will. UPPER CANADA. LOWER CANADA. TOTAL. But ten goals in both Provinces make any returns of the labor of. prisoners, and the sum realized in Upper Canada is only the paltry amount of $693. Steps have been taken to introduce cer- tain kinds of light work that will _ afford in-door employment; but after all, this fails to come Within the meaning of a sentence awarding hard labor, and as a punishment is useless. We doubt not that every one who gives the matter its due consideration will heartily support the inspectors in their unqualified condemnation of all this as flagrantly wrong, and demanding sharp and Immediate remedy. If the punishment that follows the Vlolation of aw be not sufiicient to inspire fear and respect, and to prevent, in most instances, the repetition of the crime, it is not salu- tory, and but brings the law into con- tempt. Its infliction to satisfy the de- mands of abstract justice belongs not to man : an exact proportion to tho ofl’ence l is’impossible: the past is irremediable: its true object is to protect the future, and if it fail in this, in so far it is useless. I The remedies proposed by the inspec- tors are such as should commend them- selves to the good sense of our rulers, Being justified by experience, and essen- tial to a Well conceived gaol system. They comprise :-â€"--First, the establish. ment of central prisons under the control Prisons and ‘Asylums. 6.361 3,571 2,744 257 83 c- Q7! 13,016 7,533 4,729 568 186 of the government, intended for prison- ers whose sentences are under threeI years, and exceed thirty days; the dis- cipline of these institutions to resemble that of the penitentiary, including the regular instructions of the prisoners, and the utilizing of their labor for the pubâ€" lic. Secondâ€"The substitution of “ seâ€" parateconfiuement” for the illusory sen- tence of “hard labor,” which cannot be carried out in one case in a hundred. Thirdâ€"A" uniform system of discipline enforced 'by a well considered code of1 Rules and Regulationssuitable buildings in which they may be carried out, a good stuff of officers, and frequent inspection. It has been further recommended that whipping be substituted for short im- prisonment, as having a greater deterrent ‘ effect, especially with young criminals. aThe benefits that would ‘flow from the adoption of these proposed reforms is un' questionable. Central prisons would admit of hard labor or solitary confine' ment being inflicted, of the prisoners being properly classified regularly’inQ structed, and perhaps partially reform ed, and of their labor being utilized. On the other hand the system of separate confinement in our common goals would prevent the giant evil of indiscriminate intercourse, which now renders them schools of Vice and crime, and the ruin of the young andeomparatively innoâ€" cent. To the subject of vagrancy, asylums. &c., of which the report treats, we shall take occasion to refer hereafter. Those of our readers who are not al- l ready aware of the fact, Will be glad to l notice from the advertismeut on another pge, that the first lecture of the course for the present season, will be delivered under the auspices of' the Mechan- ics’ Institute by the Rev. Mr. McCallum. of Aurora, in the Temperance Hall this evening at half-past seven o'clock. The generous policy of the Institute in mak- ing,r this lecture free ought to be fully appreciated, and will doubtless secure them in future a heagty support. Mr. McCallum’s abilities, as a lecturer, are ‘ most highly spoken of, and the subject: “ Astronomy,” in his hands is sure to be entertaining and instructive. Let there be a full house. The enterprise of the committee deServes every encouragement. The second lecture is to be delivered this day fertnight by Dr. Gckie, of Au- rora, and the third early in the new year by the Rev. Wm. Stephenson. of Toron- to. As the fee for membership is but fifty cents, and members of the Institute have the use of the vsiuable library pf the Library Association for twentyafi-ve cents a‘year, no inducement is wantingw to join. Season tieiiéts should be taken out at once, and may be had of the Se- cretary, Mr. Wm. Harrison, or any [member of the committee.
