would be filled in about ffty-four wears from
the present time. Meantime the surplus space.
amounting to probably 1000 square feet of
floor, might be occupied for other offices of the
Government. AS required by the law these
plans were made for a building complete and
entire in design and arrangement, and there
fore incapable Of economical enlargement. Its
cost as limited by law will be 81 600. 900, in
creased by the available balance Of the pre-
vious appropriation, which is estimated to be
100000, or grand total cost of $4,000, 900.
WHICH SHALL 1T BE?
building constructed upon the original
plan adopted by Congress Slightly modified as
described above) will cost SC 900 900; will ac-
commodate at first 1,6Os00 volumes; will
furnish at first extra space of $1,000 square
feet; will accommodate ultimately 1857 900
volumes, and will be filled with books in
ninety-six years, and with the courtyard ad.
ditions, which can be made as described, in one
hundred and thirty-fOur years.
A building constructed on the reduced plan,
in compliance with the act of October 2, 1888.
will cost $4, 100000; will accommodate at first
1.16S. 900 volumes; will furnish at first extra
space OF $4,000 square feet; will accommodate
ultimately 2,215,000 Volumes and will be filed
with books in fifty-four years, but will not
permit of any addition except at the expense of
architectural effect.

ing for the purposes of the library of
Congress that the limit of cost will
permit, without sacrificing the digni-
fled and monumental character demanded
by its object and location. To this end the ex-
terror retains the same degree of finish that
was contemplated in the old design while the
interior enrichment is to be confined almost
entirely to the main stair hall and rotunda
The arrangement, dimensions and general
character of the design are also in harmony
with the suggestions of Librarian Spofford,
contained in letter of November IS. 1883, in
response to one sent him by Gen. Casey. An
appropriation of 81 ,0OO, 900 is asked for use in
the spring of 1889.
CAPACITY.
Book alcoves, stacks and shelving are pro-
vided for 1,16S,00O volumes, occupying the
reading-room, three magazines adjoining the
second-story and the east 'front.' At the pres.
ent rate of growth of the library 80. 600 vol
umes year, this shelving would be filed in
about nineteen years, or about thirteen years
after the completion of the building, the con-
struction of which will occupy some six years.
The remaining space not absolutely required for
administration and for display of engravings
maps, current periodicals. &C., will accommo.
date .047 900 volumes more. making an ultimate
total capacity of 2,215 900 volumes This space

the original plans, have been submitted to the
Secretaries Of War and Interior, and when APP
proved by them Gen. Casey
WILL PROCEED WITH THE CONSTRUCTION
of the building unless Congress in the mean
time having become satisfied by the chief en-
gineer's estimates that the building can be con-
structed practically as originally planned with
ont costing fabulous unreasonable sum,
should authorize him to construct a library
building which would answer all future as well
as present needs. The $4,000. 900 building will
occupy and utilize q considerable part of the
cellar excavation and drainage system, all of
the concrete foundations for the rotunda and
the center building of the west front. and also
minor parts of the same for curtains of the
west front. already prepared for the original
building. The front walls will be of light
colored granite and the remainder of the
building chiefly Of brick and iron-fire-
proof construction throughout-as small quantity
only OF plain cut granite being used in the court
yard walls. The construction of the building
is to be solid and substantial and generally
plain in the interior. excepting the rot,,nda or
reading-room and the main stair hall or vesti-
bule. which will be suitably enriched in mar
bic, iron and stucco. In the preparation Of the
plans and estimates special pains were taken to
secure the largest and most appropriate build

body Of the plan and materially reduce the
cost. The total cost of building erected,
substantially in accordance with the plans
herewith marked d, would be 90, O03, 40, esti-
mated in the same manner as above for the
new plan, but allowing for a somewhat more
highly finished interior"
THE ORIGINAL PLAN,
as adopted by Congress, contemplated four
octagonal projections from the main central
building. These General Casey omitted from
his estimates as well IS the northwest. north
east, southwest and southeast magazines.
These changes" says the report. would do
away with the crowded arrangement of book
magazines in the courts-darkening each other
and converting the courts into wells-and give
instead OF ten small courts or wells, four large
court yards. open, light and airy, and which
may at any future time, If necessary. be occu-
pied by low pyramidal book-magazines. con-
nected with the reading-room and constructed
so as not to obstruct to any serious extent the
light and air to the main walls. As repre-
sented in this set of plans. the books would at
first occupy only the alcoves in the reading
room and the stacks in the magazines adjoin-
ing it north, south and east"

assortment. articles of table furnishing that
fairly, confess 1t, turned me green with envy.
Dainty table-covers of linen, the te xture around
the edges drawn into exquisite cobweb-like
patterns, with small, square d'oyleys to CORES

the money. More novel, if not so substantial,
are doyleys OF sea-weed; they are made Of
natural sea-weed. and either colored or white
