The largest isi.nnl contains the town of Z.iiffurnies, which up to six o'clock in the morning s is absolutely silent, the mills and suggesting a town which lias been descried after a disaster. There are not even dogs or birds. At six o'clock, however, at the thin tolling of the hell of Ea Uonquisia, a tower which is found nt the centre and summit of the island, the doors of the prison open, the stores and tile heretofore deserted streets suddenly become animated. For ten minutes there is life in the streets, the prisoners seiuterlng in every direciion, then they disappear and the town again looks like a dead oily. The life, however, has been transferred to the taverns ami the hovels; the looms of the prison are empty, but the wine simps are full, each group of prisoners having its favorite tavern, although many have not attaiued this degree of discrimination and visit ull Impartially. Upon reaching the tavern many prisoners install themselves in a corner from which they do not move until it is time to return to the prison. PRISONERS WITH LIBERTY. There Is no doubt Unit tbis Island Is the paradise of criminals. Here the prisoners have absolute liberty to devote themselves to sloth or drunkenness, they limy promenade freely in the open air, play at cards, talk, drink, assault or even stab one another. Some few work, carrying water, performing a crude form of masonry, etc., while not a few of them manifest by their yawning that they ure extremely bored. It is needless to say that every lazy, quarrelsome, drinking gambling individual couhl easily accommodate himself to such a life, for here he is iu his element. ,Vt Zaffai-iuehe does not have to buttle for subsistence since he Is clothed, nourished nud lodged at the expense of the state, which does and not interfere with his actions leaves him free to act as he pleases. A single liberty is denied the prisoner and that Is to leave the lslund; but this Is little desired. The boarders of Zaffariues Lave also a douro in the bottom of their pocket, and for those who are not satisfied with the infected mess served hy the prison there Is always the table d'hote at which many feasts take place. CARRYING OK ARMS COMMON. The carrying of urtus is au almost are few universal practice, and tlu-rprisoners who have not In their linen bolts a large knife. This hitter Is not the traditional nuvuja which bends in the middle and opens with a spring, but a large, solid, pointed knife, and a man w ho has i.ot his berramitjiito is not a man at all. Although tqiou bis entrance Into the prison the criminal Is searched, the confiscation of a knife is a rare occurrence. It Is possible that at the moment of crossing the prison threshold the criminal lias not his knife, but It Is certain that he does not go to sleep without his armed friend. Tue question naturally arises, Where are these weapons obtained? The answer is easy; they are obtained from the keepers themselves. Authority In the prison of Zaffariues Is merely a fiction, the true masters of the place being the prisoners, to whom everyThe captain of thing is subordinated. the place, if lie had to live oil his salary, could not exist, therefore he In stalls a tavern ami the prisoner make him rich. Iu this tavern there are sold, beside liquors of all sorts, knives, revolvers, cartridges, etc., the captain being the one chiefly interested iu the multiplication of thefts, for the product of these goes to swell Ids bank account.

One of them married the (laugh ter of a criminal, his sou is an otilccr, and his dnugbter Is about to marry one officer of the place.
