State Penitentiary. One day last week, while in Raleigh, we madu a visit to our State Penitentiary, and will now give our readers an account of what we there saw and heard. As we nad not been there in seven years, of course much work had been done and many im provements made in that interval. We first inspected the shoe and tailor ing department, of which Mr. W M. Wil son is the efficient superintendent, and to whom we are indebted for his polite atten tion. There are ten men employed in mak ing shoes, and twelve (all white) in making clothing. They were all busily engaged anu are turning out good work. At the hint J$tate Fair a lot of their shoe were on exhibition and received the Premium. Twenty pairs ol shoes aud fifty suits of clothes are made every day, and all en victs (including those at work on the rail- I road) are thus supplied.

The number of convicts at the penitenti ary on the 1st of December, was 349; at work on the WeHtern North Carolina Hail Hoad, 592; on the Western Kail Road, 99; on the Chester & L"noir. 48: and on the Georgia & North Carolina, 28; making a total of 1110. The expense of the support of the Peni tentary was $121,200.55 for the fiscal year ending September 30th, 1868, as stated in the Auditor's Report, when thero were only about 800 convicts, and yet now whn there are nearly 1200, the exense for the fiscal year ending September 20th 1878 was $118,666 64. This is very creditable to the present Board of Directors, among whrm is our esteemed eountyman, George W. Thompson, Esq. They are trying to re duce the expenditures to the lowest practi cable point. The Superintendent of the Penitentiary is C1. W. J. Hicks, who has proven himself to be a most efficient aud faithful officer. It may truly be said of him. "he is the ngut man in me nm nlace."
