brains of the greatest thinkers and
writer's of all generations. Conse-
quently, the congressional library grew
and waxed strong, until it was finally
hampered for elbow room. Librarian
Spofford, for ten long years, begged the
congress to give him a new building.
At last, with the aid of two great men,
Senator Morrill,, of Vermont, and Sen
ator Voorhees,, Of Indiana, he succeeded
in securing the new building for the
congressional library. The congress,
like the people of this country, may be
slow; but the congress, like the people,
does nothing by fractions. When new
library building was finally projected,
the congress was liberal and sprodigal.
The congressional library is now being
moved into the most beautiful building
ever erected by mortal man. Not even
the hitherto peerless Taj-Mahal, of the
Upper Gauges, can vie with this new
building in magnificence and beauty.

The departure Of the congressional
library from the capitol building marks
ar epoch in the history Of that struc..
'ture, and it is an epoch which should
stand forth in future history. 1t is an
epoch which marks the growth Of this
great republic. ,E sssS Sss52' S.Es
Mark you! The capitol building is
the greatest and most magnificent leg
islative building in the world. There IS
no congress, nor parliament, nor reich
stag, nor other parliamentary body in
the whole world which has such a
palace. The congress Of the United
States sits in the most roomy as well
as the most beautiful building of :its
kind in the whole world. a[.s ~.
But the congressional library has
grown so that it must be taken out Of
the capitol building, and housed lin q
splendid edifice erected for that .pur..
pose alone. There is a lesson of pa.
triotism in this fact. rs!Es, 49,. I.
The proper place for the compression.
al library is in the capitol building,
where the congress convenes and as.
sembles. The congressional library
should naturally be placed in the same
building with the congress. Anybody,
even those who have never been in the
national capital, will see that this state.
ment is correct. For concreteness and
homogeneity the congressional library
ought to be close to- the congress, fo1
the use of congressman; and therefore
it ought to be under the same roof with
the congress. ~
Well, that was thought of by the
original architect of the capitol; and
he set apart spacious quarters for the
congressional library. AS a matter OF
fact, in that early day, the architect
was criticised for having devoted 50
much space to the library. But he was
man of travel and Of learning, as well
as one skilled in his profession, and be
foresaw the literary growth of this ma.
ton. He also knew that the library OF
congress would necessarily contain all
of the great works of the world; and 50
he set aside ample space for the library
But the world of letters grew more
rapidly than even that astute architect
could foresee. Moreover, Abraham Lin.
coin appointed librarian who was a
veritable book worm. He has read and
digested more books, than any other Ii.
brarian in the world. Therefore Ii
brarian Spoford has omnivorously
cullcd from the worlds literature the
