| Summary | "The Pennsylvania Journal of Prison Discipline and Philanthropy" is a scientific publication likely written in the mid-19th century. This periodical is produced under the direction of the Philadelphia Society for Alleviating the Miseries of Public Prisons and appears to focus on issues related to reform in the prison system, specifically discussing juvenile delinquents, mortality rates, and penitentiary conditions. The opening of the journal sets the stage for an exploration of various reform efforts in the American penal system. It provides a constitution for the Society, emphasizing a compassionate approach to prison discipline that aims to alleviate the suffering of incarcerated individuals. The content includes discussions on the classification of inmates, reports on institutional conditions, the potential for reformation among juvenile delinquents, and statistics regarding crime and mortality, all of which reflect a societal concern for the treatment of prisoners and the effectiveness of rehabilitative measures in the context of growing urban crime and poverty.
