diet, instruction, treatment, and correction of
the prisoners therein, and generally to pre-
scribe all such rules as may be necessary for
the good discipline of any public Gaol, and
the safe custody of the prisoners therein.
And whereas, by an Act of the General
Assembly of the said Colony, intituled "The
Secondary Punishment Act, 1854," it is enacted
that it shall be lawful for the Governor
from time to time to make such rules and re-
gulations as to him shall seem meet for the
employment, safe custody, management, and
discipline of the convicts under sentence of
penal servitude, and to enforce the observance
of such rules and regulations by solitary con-
finement as in the said Act provided, and by
such other prison discipline as may be pre-
scribed in that behalf: Provided always that
no rule or regulation awarding any such pun-
ishment as aforesaid shall come into operation
