There In certain Individuality aJxmt public ltfMiMlea which In nometlmes very Impressive. They em to partake of the Intellectual peculiarities of the people conducting or frequenting them. There M, for instance, an atmosphere of perfect repose About the Philadelphia Library which la In harmony with the well-lalaneel characteristics of the qniet elliwns who thread its fralleriee with decoroin mien. Once within ita walls, your foot falls lightly on the clean wooden floor, and your voice instinctively irors to a whisper which cannot drown the solemn Ik-king of the Protector', clock, whose tireless lands have measured witti unerring truth the lapse f time and the progress of humanity from Crom well's day to ours. The hereditary librarian sits calmly before the time-honored desk of William i'enn, but rises with the perfect courtesy of a gen tleman of the olden school to unswer the Inquiries which suoh surroundings naturally suggest In the latter part of the last century it happened that Benjamin West was visiting Inn friend, the Rev. Samuel Preston, an English clergyman residing at. Clicvening, in Kent, who possessed a line collection of works. While examining the choice editions in Sis friend s lilirary one morning West, said in a familiar manner, which their close Intimacy permlt :"Ry the w;iy, Preston, you have no children; what Is to be done with these volumes when you are gone V "It has never occurred to nie to make any disposi tion of them,'' wus the reply. "Then, my friend, leave them to our library in f hlladelphla; for, strange ns It may appear to you, wo have there a respectable army ol authors, ami your gift would be highly prized.'' The suggestion was adopted, and upon the reve rend gentleman's decease his rare and costly books were torwanled to the library company. We must not forget to pay our tribute of respect, hi passing, to the genius and virtues of James Imuran. As founder of the Logauian Library he is intimately associated with our present theme. Distinguished as a scholar not less than as a statesman, he was the friend and patron of ingenious men, and constantly exerted himself to procure for merit its deserved ap plause. Dr. Franklin experienced his protection and friendship lu his early career. Of the many interesting reilcs scattered abont the Philadelphia Library we can only select a few. Among the pictures we must call attention to a curiously prophetic, one, painted in 1702, by S. Jeti oings, a pupil of Benjamin West, which represents the Genius of Ainericau Liberty Teaching the Blacks. The writing-desk of William I'enn, within the en ciiKure, was at Ms manor of l'ennsbury, on the Delaware. From Its gee-ret drawer the Librarian takes a variety of interesting memorials; among thers an original pitcher portrait of Washington. On the wall near at hand hangs an accurate copy of the cast taken by Houdon from Washington's face in life. The original was formerly iu the possession of Dr. John Redmond Coxe. From where we now stand may be seen above In the gallery a colossal bxst of Minerva, six feet In height, which was lie hind the Speaker's chair when the first Congress wns held in Philadelphia. A foreigner, a man of letters, who was in l'hlladelphia iu the tall of the year 1748 thus speaks of the condition of the library which was then, according to the oflicial minute, in the "upper room of the westernmost olllce of the state House," the use of which had been lately granted to the company by the Assembly: "On one side of this building the State ITouse stands the Library, which was lirst begun in the year "i74'J(it was founded in 1 till) on a public-spirited plan, formed and put in execution by the learned Mr. Franklin. For he persuaded first the more sub stantial people in town to pay forty shillings at the cutset, and afterwards annually ten shillings, all in Pennsylvania currency, towards purchasing all kinds nf useful books. There is already a tine collection of excellent, works, most of them Knglish, many French and Latin, but few in any other language. The subscribers were so kind to me as to order the Librarian, during my stay here, to leud me any book which I sliould want without requiring any payment. Besides the books, several mathematical and physical Instruments, and a large collection of natural curiosities, were to be Been in It. Several little libraries were founded in the town on the same footing, or nearly, with this." An examination of the list of shareholders of the library Company discloses the fact that the eorpora tien embraced a large majority of those who were tlNtlngulshcd In Philadelphia by learning, fortune, or high social posillon. At the death of .lames Logan in 1767, he bequeathed to the city of l'hlladelphia, with a liberal endowment, the classical library, worth at that time f 10,000 in gold, which still bears his name, and has greatly increased in value, lu 179'J, at the Instance of James Logan, a son of the preceding, the Legislature of this .State passed an act vesting the property of the Logauian Library in tne Library Company of Philadelphia. At present the Loganlan collection embraces between ten and eleven thousand volumes, many of them very rare, Mime, In fact, unique. The following facts concerning the history of the Philadelphia Library have tieeu gleaned from the original iniuutes of the company: In 1712 "a noblo present of anUent medals" was recede I, through Mr. Peters, from Mr. (irey, mem ber of Parliament from Colchester. In 170J the celebrated John Dickinson, author of the "Farmer's Letters," was elected a member 0! the Hoard or Trustees. Iu 17!9 the Uimn Library Company was united to the l'hlladelphia Library Company, and in 17V 1 another junction was formed with f.h Association Library. In 177.1 the books were removed to Carpenters Hall. Two 1111 nuocessful efforts were made in May and June, 1770, to convene the members to authorize the directors ''to remove the books out of town should the British army approach it." It docs not. appear, however, that the company sustained any loss from those composing that, lorce. On the contrary, it is a pleasure to be able to say that the Knglish olhVers, without exception, lull deposits and paid hire for the book borrowed by them. In 1777 tho library-room was occupied by sick soldiery. By the will of tho Hon. William Logan, the Libia ry received the same year a very haudsome bequest of works of ancient authors. At a general meeting held June 1, 1781). over which Bishop White presided, it was (.etermined to erect a suitable building us soon s one hundred new members could be procured. The list having been completed, the corner-stone of tne present edidce now standing on the corner of Fifth and Library streets was laid with appropriate ceremonies. By the SOth of December, 17U0, the books were all removed to their new home. In 1792 an additional building, immediately in the rear, was erected by the Philadelphia Library Company lor the accommodation of the Logauluu collection. The inscription on the corner-stone of the present build ing declares that the library was instituted "at tin instance of Bcnjumln Franklin." The total number of volumes is about W'2,000, and in this enumeration each volume of pamphlets is counted as one tmiJk inly. If tie system nursued in some famous collec- ions was resorted to, the figures would have to be iargely increased. The present Board of Directors is composed of the iiiiiuwiiig gentlemen: George W. Norris, Peter MeCall, Alexander Middle, Henry Whartou, Henry Cramond, Henry J. Williams, Charles Willing, David Lewis, J. I. Claik Hare, S. Morns wain. In addition to the Directors of the Library Com- any, tr.cre are three hereditary Trustees of the oganian Library (to be succeeded for all time, or as long as any of Logan's descendants exist,) namely, (iuKtavus (Liorge Ixgau, John Dickinson Logan and John Jay Smith. , Dkowned Man This morning, an unknown man. apparently forty years of age, whs found drowned in the Delaware at Almond street wharf.
