SOMERSETSHIRE. 
Mr. Hunt, undaunted by chains and 
dungeons, and by the absolute power con¬ 
ceded to gaolers, has displayed his wonted 
spirit by exhibiting charges of misconduct 
and cruelty against jBridle the keeper of 
Ilchester Goal, and in spite of obstacles 
which no ordinary mind could have sur¬ 
mounted, has succeeded in establishing his 
charges to the conviction of a commission 
appointed by ministers, and the gaoler has 
in consequence been dismissed. An active 
executive should always keep a watchful 
eye over prisons ; and we take it upon our¬ 
selves to say, that if the prisons of the 
United Kingdom were visited in the spirit 
of benevolence, half their present inmates 
might be liberated without prejudice to the 
public or any perversion of justice.

An individual stated to the Agricultural 
* Committee, that in his neighbourhood, 
Abbey Milton, 52 persons who farmed 
24,038 acres, have failed, and been reduced

of the country.
