Ins-Tlu- Collection to be Othcrwlno Undis
turbed. To the Stockholders of the Philadelphia Li
brary Company: Tho committee appointed on
the, subject of the bequest of tu lato Dr. James
Hush respectfully report:
That without going into tho consideration of
points about which there is a Krcut diversity of
opinion among the stockholders, they hvo en
deavored to reach conclusions that would prove
satisfactory.
To this end, and In order to guide them In
their labors, they, by correspondence and con
ference with Uenry J. Williams, Esq., tho ex
ecutor of L)r. Rush, have sought for such Infor
mation as would enable then to determine accu
rately what were his views as to the administra
tion of so much of the trust as is placed in his
charge, and what cstato and income would pro
bably lie left to be applied by tho Library Com
pany when they should come to act as trustee.
From Mr. Williams they have obtained tho
following Ftatcmcnts. First, that the present
cash valuo of the estate, as appraised by Mr.
' Thomas Craven, is one million and sixty-seven
thousand dollars. Second, that the net annual
income, not including any rental for tho man
sion on Chesnut street (which is valued at one
hundred and forty thousand dollars), is a little
above forty thousand dollars. Third, that the
site selected and purchased for tho proposed
library building, is the lot of ground on Broad
Btreet, bounded on the north by Christian street,
on the south by Carpenter street, and on tho
east by Thirteenth street; being 1(00 feet front on
Broad street by .W7 feet deep on Christian and
Carpenter streets. Fourth, that the building
will be of tho Greek Doric order of architecture,
about 80 to 100 feet front by 140 to UK) feet in
depth, with wings of !i0 to 30 feet in width, and
nn opening in the centre of the edifice of 20 to
25 feet in width, for light and air.
One of the main points on tho part of the
committee was to ascertain from Mr. Williams
w hether the question of tho site was so open to
discussion as that it might be changed t j a dif
ferent location within the limits originally se
lected by Dr. Rush.
His reply ns to a change of site is emphatically
In the negative. Ho states that the lot was
bought for the purpose, by Dr. Kush himself, for
$ 130.000, and that he feels bound in consequence
thereof, tu placo the building thereon, in order
to comply with tho directions of Dr. KukIi.
Ho states, further, that ids own judgment as
to the selected site concurs with that of tho
testator, and therefore declines to entertain any
proposition for a change.
As to tho building itself, ho says that while
the measurements were suggestcd'to him by Dr.
Bush, and accord with his present views, yet ho
is at liberty to change them, and will freely do
so iff in 'his judgment, it shall be necessary.
The material of the building will be either
granite or white Ohio sandstone.
By the terms of tho will, very largo discre
tionary powers are given to Mr. Williams, and
from his well-known character and long connec
tion with the Library Company as a director, it
may safely bo concluded that if the company
accept tho bequest, they will b : met in a liberal
spirit.
The munificent provision mado by Dr. Rush
for tho formation of a great public library, the
confidence reposed in the company by him, in
making them tho trustees of hU residuary estate,
and tho fact that a fire-proof building for the
reception of its literary treasures will bo
secured, should all combine to procure our
co-operation to carry the plans of tho testator
into effect.
At present the executor considers himself
bound to regard tho company as strangers, be
cause he is not advised of their acceptance of
the provision of the will, or, indeed, of any such
action on their part as would enable him to
determine whether he shall erect a building
suited for tliein and for tho llidgway branch of
the Philadelphia Library, or whether he shall
found and endow the Hidgway Library.
After a careful consideration of tho whole
case, the committee think that, in fairness to tho
. executor, the company should decide at once
whether they will accept or reject the bequest,
and thereby relieve him from all embarrassment
so far as they are concerned.
If tho company accept, they will at once place
themselves in such relations with the executor
as to be able to iulluence to tho fullest extent
practicable all his plans, and thus secure the
erection of a building adapted for their use and
the reservation of us large a fund for the pur
chase of books and the payment of current ex
penses ns tho terms of the will may permit.
It must bo borne in miud that the views of the
munificent testator were not limited to the pre
sent time, but are to extend over all time, as
independently of the provision- for tho lot,
building, expenses, etc., all tho principal of the
annuities, as it falls in, will become available for
the purposes of tho library.
It cannot be doubted that our company is bet
ter fitted than any other corporation or any new
one that might be created, lor tho accomplish
ment of what Dr. Rush had at heart.
Our collection of the kind of books he favored
is already large, and will form a good foundation
on which to build hereafter, nnd tho modifica
tions of our charter which he insists on fes pre
liminary to clothing us with tho care of Lis es
tate aro in tho main judicious.
Nor do the committee perceive any difficulty
in making arrangements for the convenience of
tho stockholders and tho public, in keeping up a
library on our present site or one more generally
accessible, of tho character used for circulation
and for ordinary use in a reading-room.
Indeed, tho testator, by diracting that his
money shall be applied to the purchase of books
for the Ridgway branch of the Library, lias left
to tho discretion of the comimnv tho disnosition
of its other property in such way as may bo most
bcneuclal to tuo public ana tue stoeiiitoiacrs.
Tho committee, therefore, see no ditliculty In
carrying out tue plan tnev propose tor tuo adoi
tiou of the stockholders, which, In their judg
ment, will be in harmony with the intention ot
Dr. Rush, as gathered iroin a fair and liberal
construction of his will, aud with other duties
and trusts which rest upon the company; and
with which, doubtless, Dr. Kush was quite la
miliar.
We think it may bo assumed with great cer
tainty, that Mr. Williams will be Induced, by the
favorable action of the company, to adopt such
plans and make such arrangements as will put
up tho proposed building at such cost as will
leave about MOO,000 for the payment of the an
nuitics and tho constitution of a fund for cx-
. peusL'S and purchase of books.
When the nunuitics have all fallen in, and of
course this will be a work of time, the capital of
tho fund will be nt least the amount above
named; but it must bo recollected that the estate
consists mainly of real property, situated in the
city oi I'luiuaeiphla, anil daily increasing in
valuo bv the, irroHlh of the cltv. so that a urn
vision of iriiOO.OOO, as tho foundation, will soon
be largely augmented.
Dr. Rush line undoubtedly had this In view
when he provided so strictly against any hasty
alienations of his real estate.
Everything, therefore, concurs, in the judg
ment of the committee, to make it advisable for
the compuuy to become the trustee of the
estate
Tho plan of tho committee is, first, that the
Library Compauy shall become, by the accept
ance of tho bequest of Dr. Rush, tho trustee of
his residuary estate, aud apply it to tho estab
lishment ol the Ridgway branch of the Phila
delphia Library, in the building and on tho site
selected by the testator and his executor, in this
wuy securing all the objects of Dr. Kush in a
inoro am pit) mauuer than they would bo by
merely founding and endowing the Ridgway
Library, nnd leaving it to bo determined in tho
luture wueuier it win bo uroncr to ulace the
whole library of the company in the RiJgwuy
building.
Second. That avrangomcnts shall be mado as
early as practicable for tho erection ot a lire
prof building on our present Kite, or some other
equally convenient place, of siilllcleut size
and with such accommodations as will be
required for a library such as lias been hitherto
kept for circulation and for ordinary use In the
rending room.
Third. That a committee shall bo appointed
for tho purpose of consulting and advising with
tho executor of Dr. Rush, as to the best and
most economical plans for carrying out the pro
visions of tho will, and for procuring such legis
lation as may bo needed.
Appropriate resolutions for carrying those
views into effect are herewith submlttod.
Tho committee cannot leave the subject that
has been intrusted to them without rocomtnond
ing also that in tho letter which shall communi
cate to the executor of Dr. Rush tho action taken
by the company on the munificent bequest mado
by his will, tho strongest assurance shall bo given
of the appreciation of tho stockholders of the
confidence reposed in them by tho testator, and
of their cordial willingness to unlto and co
operate with the executor in securing tho most
perfect and beneflcUl execution of the philan
thropic intentions of tho testator.
livsolvvd, That the stockholders of the Phila
delphia Library Company do hereby accept tho
legacy of Dr. James Rush according to the terms
expressed in Ills will.
Ji'e.-olved, That so much of tho present collec
tion of books and other property of tho company
us may by tho Directors bo deemed expedient,
shall be retained in the present or somo other
central position for general use and circulation.
llenuloed, That a committee, to consist of
three stockholders and three directors, shall be
appointed for the purpose of consulting nnd ad
vising with tho executor of Dr. Rush in carrying
out tho provisions of the will, in procuring such
legislation as may bo needed, and also for carry
ing into effect the second resolution, by taking
measures for securing tho erection of a fire-proof
building for tho reception of those parts oi tho
library so to bo retained at such time and in
such placo as said committee may determine.
linKolvcil, That a copy of the foregoing reso
lutions bo transmitted to Henry J. Williams,
Esq., tho executor of Dr. James Rush, ns the ac
ceptance of this company of tho bequest mado
by his will, nnd that the letter transmitting the
same shall acknowledge tho high appreciation
by the company of the confidence rcposod in
them by Dr. Rush, and of their cordial willing
ness to unite in carrying out, in the most heneli
cial way, his philanthropic inteutions.
By order aud on behalf of tho committee

THE PHILADELPHIA LIBRARY.
J e the Editor of the Evening Tehyraph.
. On Tuesday, tho 5th of October, the share
holders of this important institution aro to
assemble to decide whether they will accept or
reject tho legacy bequeathed to tliem by the late
Dr. James Rush, clogged with the condition
that tho library pliall bo removed to the corner
of Broad and Christian streets a situation more
than a mile, in a straight line, southwest of its
present position, and about a ile and a half by
the shortest route through the streets. I desire
to present some reasons why tho legacy should
be rejected.
It my judgment, it should be rejected, first, on
account of the great imbecility of mind dis
played in the will by the testator, aud, .sworn,
because the proposed new location would be in
convenient now to niuetccn-twenticths of" tho
shareholders, nnd would become inconvcuieut
every year to a still larger proportion of them.
The imbecility of mind displayed in the will is
so great that it would be disreputable to the
Library Company io accept anything under it,
and this imbecility is displayed in several points.
Dr. James Rush considered it inconsistent for
a library to contain pictures and statues, and
yet he directs that the proposed new building
shall be the depository of his corpse, of that of
his wife, and, if possible, of that of his father-in-law
! Pictures and statues, according to him,
should bo excluded, and dead bodies brought In !
lie thought tho mingling of book with paint
ings and statues improper, but not the combina
tion of books and skeletons. If the legacy is
accepted, aud the Legislature is appealed to for
some new provisions, one of them should be that
tne title nercaiter snail ue "tuo ruiiauoipiiia
Library aud Cemetery Company."
Besides being a bone-house, t lie library bulgi
ng is to bo a publication ollice, where are to
issue, from time to time, at the expense of the
corporation, editions of the Doctor's works in
proso and verse. I have never read any of them,
ana can, tiierclore, express no opinion ot tueir
merits, but it they are ot value 1 tuiuit the book
sellers would discover it, and would save the
library company the expense of getting out
these new editions. According to the lioetor it
s inconsistent, for a. lihrarv coirmanv to own
picture! nnd statues, but not inconsistent for it
to turn booK publisher, i nc name win navo to uc
still further enlarged, so as to read "The Phila
delphia Library, Cemetery, and Publication
Ollice."
Dr. James Rush goes out of hia way to heap
abuse upon newspapers nnd reviews. The news
papers can take care of themselves; us for the
reviews, it will be sutllcient to say that tho best
scholars of Europo and America write for them,
and that the writings of Sydney Smith, Macau
lay, and Carlyie will be read with pleasure long
after tho productions of Dr. James Rush have
suuk into neglect, even if aided by hot-bed edi
tions from the corner of Broad and Christian
streets.
In ids will, Dr. Rush leaves some petty annui
ties to females, to be forfeited if they marry or
go to Europe. How childish this appears!
Vhat objections Dr. James Rush had to "the
holy estate of matrimony" I cannot diviuc, but
it is very certain that tho law of England, and
our own, as derived from it, consider restraint
upon marriage to be highly demoralizing. As
to visiting Europo, I never knew any one in
jured by it. All travelling enlarges the mind,
and I have known instances, as I suppose that
others have done, of Americans who have re
turned Jrom abroad with an increased affection
for tho institutions and manners ot our own
country. If Dr. James Rush had spent the
last years of his llfu in foreign travel, his mind
would have enjoyed a healthier tono, and somo
of the Imbecilities which diuflgure his will would
not have appeared in it.
Having exceeded tho bounds which I proposed
to myself in discussing the first reason for re
jecting tho legacy, I must postpone tho con
sideration of tho inconvenience ot the intended
site until to-morrow. W. 1).
