-It appears by the report of the keeper of the Ken tucky Penitentiary, that of the convicta in thatinstitution, thirly-eight are married, and one hundred and lioenty five ore bachelors. Of the men over twenty-one years oíd in tbis etate,probably four are married for onc single. So that of the whole population there are more than thirteen single for one married man convicted of crime. Does not thia fact show the vast importance of the instituí on oi marriage? There is not one married woman jn the penitentiory.
