LIBRARIES OF DEAD BOOKS.
MausoleumS at oxford University for
Works of Long Ago.

In his book on "O!d Oxford Libra
ries" Strickland Gibson describes the
old library of Jesus College, built and
founded by Sir Leonline Jenkins
about 1876, "as mausoleum for
books long since dead" says the New
York Sun.
For can any change of scholar
ship" the author asks, quicken old
Testatus and raise him from the
grave? Will any theologian, save out
of mere curiosity, ever pore again
over the sixteen folio volumes Of AL
fonso Salmeron? 1t is only by few
antiuuaries that the old books are
taken from their shelves. The un-
der-graduates never enter; indeed
some have never even heard of the
old library. 1t is elsewhere. in the
Undergraduate Library, that the pres
ent generation seeks learning.
But even this is not the deadest of
libraries, for Mr.. Gibson describes
less frequented one within the pre-
cincts of Christ church:
! DR.. Richard Allestree, regius pro-
fessor divinity, in 1880 conveyed the
whole of his books to the university
in trust for the use Of successive re-
gius professors Of divinity. The uni
varsity, by the deed of trust, was to
exercise the right of visitation, but
no money was left for the mainte-
nance of the library, nor has pro-
vision ever been made for it. In a Sc
cluded cloister, within a small cham
ter and a long narrow room paved
with red tiles, the books, unvisited,
pass their days in dusty desolation
and unbroken peace. Only the pro-
fessor has the right of entry, right
probably exercised but seldom by one
whose duty it is to interpret the
living word, and who may we'll hesl-
tate to explore the wastes of long
exhausted theological controversies.
The eighteenth century library
of St. Edmund Hall is worth visiting
for the sake of its picturesque ap-
pearance and its diminutive size.
It is situated above the chapel, and
is approached by narrow and tor
tuous staircase, on which, unless the
visitor follows his guide very closely,
there is some likelihood Of his being
temporarily lost. The library is the
smallest in OXford-a little room
with gallery running round. Or
iginally the books were all on the
walls, but recently some transverse
cases have been added, thus rem
dering perambulation difficult. 1t is
a library for the sedentary only.
