IHEy LIBRARY OF CoNaREss.- The Lii
brary OF Congress was FIRST established du-
ring the administration of Jefferson. at his
suggestion and by his exertions. 1t atfirst
contained about two thousand five hundred
volumes, and was destroyed by fire when
the British burned the Capitol in l8l4.-
In the same year a resolution was intro
duced into Congress 70 purchase Mr., Jef-
ferson's private library, which was passed,
the books bought and brought to Washing
ton. and the library of Congress again or
ganized. Various valuable additions being
made from time to time, the library con
tanned, in 1851, $4,000 volumes. During
that year it accidentally caught fire, and
S5,OO0 volumes we're destroyed, and the
room very much injured. This accident
finally resulted in tho room being made
perfectly fire proof, by constructing the al
coves and shelves of cast-iron. Soon after
this fire, an appropriation of $4,000 was
made by Congress- for the purchase of new
books. This fund was judi iciously laid out,
and most excellent collection made of
standard and rare works. The library now
contains about $4,000 volumes, exclusive
of a large number of pamphlets, and about
$4,000 public documents; and the annual
appropriation to the library is $4,000 for
miscellaneous, and SO, 600 for law books.
