The gaols at Hamburgh were also nearly empty and in some other respects commanded the appro bation of their inspector ; but he found that in the case of refractory criminals, there w r as an excess of severity employed, which admitted of no justifica tion, even in that age ; and which he heartily denounced. In a prison of this city called the But- tuley, the felons were heavily laden with fetters ; while in some instances the most barbarous tortures were resorted to, to make a suspected offende...r con fess his crime. " Amongst the various engines, " says Howard, " of Torture, or the Question, which I have seen in France, Italy, Germany, and many other countries, one of the most excruciating is kept and used in a deep cellar of this prison. It ought to be buried ten thousand fathoms deeper !" It is said that the inventor of this horrid instrument was the first to suffer by it ; a sort of retribution which has frequently happened to those who have given to the world the results of their demoniacal ingenuity.
