the fact that we have a library in our midst
ofsomc scycn or eight hundred volumes,
and rapidly increasing which is accessible
to every one diSpo 'cd to read its books. BY
the contributions Of citizens, and taxes on
its members, the Literary Association have
been able to collect books to the number in
dicatcd, which Lave been arranged in cases,
and are now open to the members and the
public at the room of Dr. HARRIS, over Ne
.Arthur's drug store on La Sale st. Mem.
bcrs have the reading of the books free of
charge, but persons not members are charged
the small fee of IS cts. a quarter. There
arc also 100 volumes, to which large addi.
tons are contemplated, adapted to the read.
ng of youth, and which are loaned at % cts.
quarter. If the library is supported by
the public as it deserves, arrangements will
be made TO be regularly furnished with new
publications of value, as they issue from the
press.
