PoETzAIF GALLERT.-Ths suggestion recently made to
collect lkensssss Of worthy dEtrgnkhsd individuals a1d
entrs1 them to the care Of tho Historical Society to be
suitably arrsrgsd 10 their room the Capital meets with
decided approval. We have heard many gentlemen and

Then The idaa Ct exchanges admirable one and can
be happily carried through TIE sgsney Of tbs Sossy
If those who have portraits CT deceased relatives and
friends will incur but small expense for copies they may
promote this object Of the Soeisty. and few duplicates
will enable the Society to make exchanges for keneEss OF

less is greatly to be regretted insOmUca as the exc

The motive fer stealing the draft, Of Which the
Librarisn was tie custodian, will lie much dicuss-
