The state penitentiary, for the eastern district of Pennsylvania This institution known as "Cherry Hill State Prison" at Philadelphia, is the model prison of "The Pennsylvania System of Prison Discipline" or "Separate System" as it is called to distinguish it from "The Congregate." Each convict occupies a single cell or workshop, and is thus separated from all other convicts. The building was begun in 1822. The walls, 30 ft. high, 12 ft. thick at base, 2 ft. 9 in: at top, enclose a square plot of ten acres. There are 7 corridors of cells, capable of receiving 500 convicts. The average number confined annually is less than 300. Some cells are 11ft. 9 in. by 7 ft. 6 in. with yards attached, 15 ft. by 8 ft. Others are double this size, all lighted and warmed and ventilated.-Gas is introduced into the corridors. Heat by hot water thro' pipes. Water in each cell and other conveniences. The above is a bird's eye view of the buildings_ grounds and environs
