M. LIBRI.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Sin,—As you have mentioned, some mouths ago, the sen-
tence by which M. Libri has been condemned 'in France to
ten years' imprisonment (in default of judgment) for having
stolen books from public libraries, M. Libri does not doubt
but your justice and equity will induce you to mention in
your valuable paper the curious and unexpected discovery
which has just been made in the Mazarine Library, where,
as it has been already stated by the Times of Saturday last,
the Stli ult., by the Athencem, and by the Daily Afetos of
the same day, the books M. Libri was accused of having
stolen are still in their places on the shelves of that library,
from which they have never been absent, and where any one
may go and see them, and verify the fact for himself.
such a discovery cannot pass unnoticed in this country ofc
justice and law. You will find the principal circumstances I
it related in the paper enclosed.
I have the hotwur to be, Sir, &c.,
• M. LIBEL

The document referred to fully corroborates the above
statement, and announces, moreover, that 111. Libri, as noon
as his health will permit, intends publishing some singular
statements in regard to this very extraordinary transaction.
