IlSTIRICAl STATISTICAL AM SFECCLITITE REVIEW F THE WESTIM. The Revolutionary Jnllsnsand the Ante Bell um Athemeum Liberies-What We Hare aud What We Want. Lancaster tun twice enjoyed the advan tages or a public library and there are traces of a third effort te found an Institu tion of the kind. The first was lit 1759, ' The Juliana Library, " the second and least known was the Lancaster Library company, for which an association was formed In 17U0, but which does net appear te have flourished. Tbethlrd, and the last known te living residents, was the Athemeiini, organized in 1858 and expiring in 1878. By a vete of city councils the rooms in the third story of tlie City halt were given te the Athentcutn library free or rent. Hen. K. C. Iteigart gave twcnty-llve hundred dollars, and II ve hundred dollars annually for three years. The Historical, Agricultural and Mechanics societies united with the Athemeum association and removed their books and museums te Its rooms. Hen. J. J. Llbhart prcsonted his nutural history collection; and with many donations, and a large membershlp at one dollar a year, the institution started with flying colors. But the gathering clouds of the civil war seen overshadowed this home of peaceful study. Pcople could talk or nothing but the pelitcal crisis, and with the eutlireik of the wur the decline of the library began Having no" strong support after the return of peace the directors finally, In 1878, trans ferred the books and property te the custody of the Yeung Men's Christian association, providing in their artlcles of transfer that the library association is net thereby extinguished, but is merely sus pended. Its future disposition is subject te the call of tlie rflrnctnrM- tlin irmln nlilepl being te approximate the aim of the founders, and also the act of Congress. In making it the depositary of the public documents for this congressional district. There are about six thousand volumes in tlie Athemuum library. The last be.irtLpr directors, elected Jan uary, 1870, were iron. A. L. Hayes, presi dent j Hen. Geerge Sanderson, vice presi dent; James Itl.ick, treasurer; Prof. Jehn D. Kevinski, secretary; Hen. A.

In 173!), the Lancaster Library company was organized with a membership of liny liny feur, and In 1703 it was chartered as the Juliana library with a membership of fccvcnty-snvcn. The annual dues wcre seven shillings sixciice. Lancaster then had about two thousand Inhabitants and less than five hundred houses. As Mr. F. It. DiircinlerH'cr remarks in the ske'.ch from which these facts are drawn, it does credit te the inhabitants of the old borough that fifty-four names could then be found whose owners weie ready te contribute for the founding of the third subscription library in tlie United States. Fraiiklln, who founded the first, writes that in Phila delphia lie "was net able with grout in dustry te find mero than fifty persons, mostly young tradesmen, willing te pay down for this purpese, forty shillings each and ten shillings per annum. This library was In existence, ter eighty-four years, and though it is net likely that it ever num bered mero than a thousand volumes, that would have been a line collection for theso days, when the famous Philadelphia library only be.istfd or five thetismd books. Mr. William Heitshit has a Biblethat was bought by his father at the sale of the lib rary in 1st'!. It Is a beautiful edition of the scriptures iu three folio volumes, wi h extended commentaries. On the cover of the first volume Is this Inscriptien: "The gilt of the Itr. Honble Lady Juliana Penn, te the Juliana Library of Lancaster." The volumes incasuie cloven inches by seven teen and a half, and the full Russian leather binding is very handsome. The location of the library was changed sevcrul tiines. A room was rented from Benjamin Price, en Ninth Queen street, in 1701. In 17the library was moved le the house of Judge William Henry, Ne. 8 East King street, he charging six pounds n year rent, and the same sum for bis services as librarian. 11 again shifted te Ne. 1 Fast King street, and thou te Ne. 21, North Queen street, where it remained in charge of floergo -Woltzel, and then ills son, until it was sold for rout in 1843.

The circulating library of the Misses Jerdan was opened In July, 1821, in a private residence en East. King street. As tlie ladies lived in the building, tlie library was accessible from ctrlit o'clock a. in. t' eight o'clock p.m. Tlie charge was three dollars a year, or a dollar a quarter. The Misses Jerdan had Inherited most of the books and when they died the collection whs old. The libraries new avail ible te the real iug public are the Mechanic's library mil the library ofthe Yeung Men's Christian association, The Mechanic's society, or ganized in 1K1, went te sleep in 181. mid was re.twakciiediii(l named the Mechanic's Library association In 183e. This library is open every Thursday evening for tne lean and exchange of books, and It is no longer confined te iiechanlcs. There are many old books iu thii collection, some having been bought at the Nile of tlie old colonial Juliana library. Tlie manage ment of this institution has been conserva tive and cautious, the officers preferring net te imperil their invested funds in any enterprise. The library of the Yeung Men's Christian association, composed in part of tlie old Athcmcum library, contains about eight thousand volumes readily accessible ut all times. Although managed as well us their means will allow these libraries in no way satisfy the wants of a grew ingand intelligent com munity demanding the latest and best pub lications iu history, fiction, art and science. Lancaster lias long ueededawelluppeluted public library liberally endow oil, centrally lecuicu, wisely managed, tsueii un insii tutieu would give new force and iutliiciice te the intellectual llfe that has here devel oped in splte of discouraging conditions. Our college would profit by it; the Cllo Clle Mphle, Liniia-au and ether societies would fieurish by its fertilizing power, the whole community would feel the iirect In the constant presence of a ready ininoef geed literature and sound learning. Hew te bring about the establishment of such a library is the open question. It has often been suggested that some citizen or former resident of l.uicister might make arrangements te establish a library by bequest, but as time gees en it is nlse" evident that "he mightn't." If any worthy gentleman really contemplates something of the kind lie is rcs(cclfiilly invited te ceiieldcr the-prepriety of doing it in his lifetime, In order that he may sce it well dene and also that we liny have a chance te thank hint. It would be pleasant te de this at any rate, und If the lienovo lienevo lienove lontly disposed party can't spare the funds until he is dead let him say mi frankly, and receive sincereand enthusiastic wishes for a long and happy life from a gruleful and patient community. There Is a movement in Harrlsburg for the establishment or u public library and Mr. James McCermlck lately gave the matter a momentary boom bv ceutrihu Ing a theukand dollars The project, how ever, docs net seem te strike the fancy of 36. ether moneyed dtisena and the local papers are already suggesting an appeal te the city councils for aid. In 187 the Leg islature passed a law permitting cities te appropriate money for the maintenance of libraries privately established. In some ether state free libraries may be estab lished by taxation, but the most healthy and progressive Institutions appear te be theso established by private benevolence en a liberal scale.

Burten Stanley's Company Plays "Mrs. Partington" te n Small Audlcnee. Last evening the comedy or "Mrs. Part ington was given in Fulton opera houee by the Burten Stanley company, which openod their traveling season here. The audience was by no means large and the rorfernianco was only rulr. Tne piece is weak and lacks snap.altheugh several geed people iu the company work hard te make it go. The audicuce became very tired during ttiefirst two acts, and it was little wonder. Mr. Stanley, who heads the company, is a very clever comedian, and he mukvs lets of fun as Mis. iVii tingten, the dashing and talkative widow. Gus Heckler, Jr., who is a mere boy, plays the part or Ike, a boy or Peck's kind, and docs It well. Miss May Douglas, once a Ijincuhter favorite in cheap opera compa nies, makes a pretty Curc Huttings, and slugs and acts well. Aunie Leaf is sprightly as .Vurdi. The best part ofthe entertalument by far Is the third uct, when a burlesque of " The Mascotfe" is given, and there Is some geed singing. The .act closed with a very pretty march by twelve ladies and gentle men Iu elegant costume. There are ether features that are peer. ST. JOHN'S CONGREGATION. They Will Worship at St. Jehn's Gor Ger man Reformed Church. At a meeting or the council or St. Jehn's Lutheran church en West Orange street, held last evening, it was agreed te sccure St. Jehn's German Reformed church at Mulberry and Orange streets, which can be hul, for the purpese of holding services, until a new church shall be erected. It is likely that farewell services will be held in the old church ou Suuday, Octeltcr 20th, although that Is net certain as yet. The old church will uet be teru down this fall but early in the spring. There are ever 300,000 brick and plenty of material in the old building, und if it was tern down new no place could be secured te protect the material from the weather during the winter. The cause of the weakness of the church building was the reef, which spread, but it has new been properly secured with heavy trusses and iron reds, which run across, se that there is net a particle of danger in occupying it new. here the new church building will le erected it is impessible te tell at present. A New J'ostefllce. A new postefilco has been established In the village or Fairfield, Drumere township, which will be known as l'u mess, called after ene of the early bottlers in the lower cud. Tlie present posteflice in the place is Green. Fairfield is ene of theso very long villages of the county and whenever a change is made in the postefilco there is growl. Under the Democratic administra tion the olllce was in the northern part of the village towards Chestnut Ixtvel and peeple of the ether cud were dissatisfied. When the Republican came in he took it te the extreme southern end. Te remedy this it was thought best te establish a new postefilco entirely, and it is iu the northern part of the village. The estmastcr is Ell weed Stubbs. J-micnKter'nCreinntery Ixst a Customer. There is the following clause in the will of Andrew J. Ot-lger, the wealthy and eccen tric Philadelphia lumber merchant who was found dead in his olllce en the 4th Instant : " It is my w ill and desire that my body be cremated in the crematory at Norristown, and my ashes placed iu an urn and niche in quality whlca my estate will warrant, in the mausoleum of the crematory company at Norristown, ir that company is net iu existence then cromate me at Lancaster and fellow the s.11110 directions us above with the purchase of u let iu Laurel Hill cemetery." Mr. Gclger, however, had told his nephew that he might 1m cremated in Philadelphia If it could tie done. The incineration took place at the Philadelphia crematory. Charged With Larceny of Cern Fedder. Jehn Mowery, who resides in Mauhelm township, has been charged before Alder man Piukcrten with tlie larceny of a let of corn fodder, by Mrs. Sarah B. Itndis. The accused was the farmer, en the shares, of Mrs. Ijindis' property. He was entitled te hair of the corn fodder, but Mrs. Lundis alleges that he took it all. He g:ti,e jail for a hearing.

Justice Mitchell Holds That m Publio Read Cannet Be Appropriated lly n Corporation Fer n Tell Read. Seme few or the many turnpikes which gridiron Lancaster county have been built en routes laid out for these reads especially and upon rights of way purchased and paid for by the corporations occupying them. But the greater number of loom have occupied Ter thelr reeds the line or the old township readr, with or without any authority te de se. Afore time, when legislative charters of whatever kind were se easily procured, it was the went of these Beeking te build turnpikes te get chartered authority te construct macadamized reads en certain established highways and te appropriate the old line te these new uses. But sltice the new con stitution and the laws regulating the grants of charters have Imposts I this duty and vested this authority In the executive the case stands differently. In 1881, when Hey twos governor, ad vertisement was made that an application would be presented te him ler the grant of a charter te lay a turnplke en the bed of the well known "old read" between the eastern terminus of the Horseshoe turn turn pleo and Bird-ln-Haud. The Intkm.kiks Intkm.kiks ekr, noticing the advertisement and detecting the stiake in It, printed a vigorous pretest against the project and denied the right of the state authorities te issue "such a charter. One of Its editors filed a pretest with Gov. Heyt against tlie granting of the charter and tlie sclicme was temporarily abandoned. It was, however, renewed In 1685, when Cel. L. L. BushaiidanumborefcapitalUtr, land owners, business ineit or Lancaster and ethers in interest organized and sought a charter for n turnplke te occupy the sumo Iiortlen of the old read. Dlflorenecs bo be bo weon theso who had formulated the schoine led te early opposition against It even by someof theso who at first had embraced the project favorably; and when the up- Cllcatlen for the charter came en te be heard efore Secretary or State Stonger the ro re ro menstrants,reprosontcd by Messrs. Brown, Hensol, B. F. Davis and H. M. Henser, succeeded in having him strlke from the certificate of the charter granted dlhor dlher wise as applied for all that portion or it which proposed te glve the turnplke com pany the right te occupy for Its purposes the " King's highway" or the " old read " leading from this city toward Intercourse. Although thus emasculated, the charter was held by the turnplke company te be BUfllcient warrant for taking the highway, ana acoeruingiy it was scizcu upon ami me turnpike built en its bed. The court had it inspected and Judge Pattorseu would have nermltted tollirates te be eroded. Judge Livingston, hewever,always holding that the company had exceeded its powers. The persons who were fighting tlie com pany then applied for an injunction te restrain it from ore:ttng tellgatcs en the read, "the said read being u publie hltrii way, laid out by operation of law, used as such for many years and under the control and direction of the suer visors of the rospectlvo townships through which it runs, and maintained and kept in order and repair by the said townships." The company answered that it was a turnplke lawfully constructed, with tlie right te take tells. The court appointed a master te hear testimony and recommend a decrce. Goe. M. Kline, thus appointed, heard the cusu und decided in favor of tlie company's right te take the read and te set up its gates. Judge Patterson alllrmcd his roert and thedocree was ordered; an appeul was takeu te the supreme court, the erection or the tellgntes being mcuutlme suspended. The cese was elaborately argued at a sie clal silting or tlie court by 11. M. North, S. H. Rey Holds, and I). McMullen for the company, and by Brown it Hensol, B. F. Davis and II. M. Heusor Ter the citizens. Following Is the text or tlie supreme court's opinion delivered by Justice Mitchell. THE OPINION. Groll'et. al., vs. Bird-in-Hand Turnplke company, July, ltteO, Ne. 12, uppeal from common pleas, Lancaster. The question presented In this case, whether a turnpike company by virtuu of a chaitcr under the gcueral corporation act of 1874, specifying tlie termini of its read, can appropriate an existing highway Is ene or very considerable imjiertauce. Eminent domain Is defined te be the sovereign power Investcd In the stute te take private property for the public use. The contention or the apiiellce Is that under the law or Pennsylvania any live persons, only three of whom need be clti- y.nilH. mnv cntihtihitn (linnmnl vp n rnrnnra- tien, take possession of any ntrille high way or tlie commonwealth, change it te a turnplke read, and thereafter charge tells ler ineir private proeriy. A claim which thus In effect completely reverses the definition of the power under which it is sought te be authorized may well challenge careful scrutiny Inte the cases en which it rests. It has been settled since the cases of Kensington plan, 2, Rawle 415, and Philadelphia t Trenten Railroad company, 0. Horteu25, that preperty devoted te pub pub leo uses, including franchise, is subject te eminent domain, mid may be taken for ether public- uses; but It is clearly settled, that it cannot be se taken without legisla tive authority, expressed iu clear terms, or by necessary implication. Whether this rule has beau correctly ap plied te the fucts in all cases Is a question en which Judgments may difle., and have differed sometimes In this court, but iu the long line or decisions from Steimfultz vs. Maner Turnplke company, 13 Pennsyl vania, 655, down te PittsLurg Junction rail rail reed's appeal, 122 Pennsylvriuia, 511, the rule Itself has never been questioned. The appcllee derives tower from a charter uuder tlie general corporation act of 1871. It is net claimed that its chatter gives It any express authority te take the public read iu question. Whether that act w euld autherize the issuing of any charter grant ing an express ewer te take public property or franchise except conditionally and te" such extent only as would net destrey or substantially impair the exist ing publie use is at least extremely doubt ful. The weight of judicial decision seems te be against such authority. Barber vs. Andevcr,8 N. II. ,398; Spring field vs. Connecticut It. R. Ce., I Cilsh., 71; coinuienwcath vs. R. R. Ce., 11 Gray, 03; Housateuic R. It. vs. I A- 11. It. It Ce.; 118 Massachusetts, 01 : B. ,t M. R. R. Ce. vs. L. It. It. Ce., 121 Massachusetts, 358; ro-ctitlen of B. ,t A. R. R. Ce., 53 N. Y., 574 ; ro-upplicsaleuofcity of Butl'ale, GS N. Y.. 107. It is net necessary, hew ever, te deter mine this point, as the present charter docs net assume te grant such authority. It gives the termini only, and makes no mention of the Intermediate route. "It does net," says the learned master, "grant the right by express words te take and oc cupy the old read for the pur)se of con structing the new one, neither docs It ex clude or prohibit this defendant company from se doing. " But this argument e or or leeks the settled rule that a failure te grant is iiseu an exclusion, emission is pro hibition. Although In this particular case further confirmation is unnecessary, the general rule is further com finned by tlie fact that the emission was intentional, It appearing that the executive icfuscd te grant a charter with such express qiewcr. We are left therefore te tlie consideration of the only ether ground en which the claim can test, that of necessary implica tion. The imperative ami ' inevitable ll iture of the implication requisite has in en laid down In all our cases, und new lit rj mero strongly than iu some of tlie most re cent and carefully considered. See Pittsburg Junction It. 11. appeal 122 P. A. 511; P. It. R. Cempanv's upiical Ul P. A. U0; P. R. R. Ce's appeal 115, P. A. 517. Stermfeltz vs. Maner Turnplke Ce., 13 P. A. 55.1 : Cake vs. P. A E. 11. It. Ce., 87 P. A. 307 ; Tyreno school district's appeal 32. W. N. CI 1. -ii The uppellee's charter gives only the termini of the proposed read, and is silent as te the Intermediate route. The charter does uet indicate the kj1 thai of the termini te the old read, nor is tne "master's report explicit as te this point, but It appears In the evidence that the starting place Is en that old read " at the terminus of the Bridgeport and Herso Shoe turnplke in East ljiuipctcr town ship "and tlie ending point is also en or near it" and ended at the township line between East Lampeter and Lcaceck town ships, near the village of Bird-In-Hand. " Assuming even that both termini are en the old read, the right te fellow the ceurse or that reed between the two would net be necessarily Implied. As already stated the right or the new corporation te scqulre an express authori ty under the act or 1874 Is doubtful and the right te create a necessity by its own act in lilting its termlnl is equally se. But passing that, as the case .does net appeal for IU decision, It la entirely clear that the ceurse of the old reed is net the only and net even the most direct route between tlie given points. Tlie master reports only that the line adopted for the pike, which Is the boil or the old Philadelphia reed, "Is rerv scurfy direct between the termini" and It ap pears in the ovidenco that a straight read Iwtwcen the termini would net have occu pied the old highway, yet It would -net have deviated far from it at any point. The Intervening country offers no physi cal Impossibilities te a new rnttte, either perfectly straight or deflected te either side, for it was the fertile plain or the Lan caster valley. Notwithstanding the find ings or the master therefore that " draft Ne. 2 and the evidence showed It te be the only feasible, reasonable and practicable route botweon the termlnl,"'tt is entirely clear from the evidence that this conclu sion does net rest en any physical difficulties in the way of another route, but en what Is the perfectly manifest animus of the appellee's whele case, the saving of tlie expense or putting a route through private preperty. This Indeed Is net denied. There is scarcely a suggestion of any ether ground en which the right claimed can be supported. Hew entirely Insuffi cient this ground is, has been declared in the Pittsburg Junction railroad company's appeal 122, P. A. 531, in terms se forclble and se iertliicnt iu the present case that I count net uope te improve upon mom "The claim ofderendant," says the preseut chief Justice, "is a matter or economy net or necessity. II can construct its' read and reach it terminus by another route ; It Is true It would be mera expensive but it is n mero question or money, and engineer ing skill. It Is net entitled te run through plaintiffs yard, and greatly Impair his lucllltles for handling his business merely te save money. Upen this point the Ian Ian guage oreur brether Gorden In P. R. R. Ce.'s appeal is se clear and forcible that I may well repeat it here : "It is true that a franchise is property and as such may be taken by a cor cer cor IKiratlen having the right of eminent do main, but in favor or such right there can be no Implication unless It arises from e necessity se ubsolute that without It the grant itself would be defeated. "It must also be a necessity that arises from the very nature of things, ever which the corporation has no control ; it must net lie a necessity created by the company it self for its own convenience or for the sake or economy. " This Isdocislveof thopresentcojio. There is no real ground set out except or economy, the master Indeed finds that the old read Is during Kirt or the year In bad condition te travel, that tlie turnpike is really a con tinuation or the same use in a better form, and that the change will net work an Irre- C arable Injury which should be enjoined, ut these conditions are merely make weights and of no validity. If the read Is in bad repair there is an adequate remedy te compel Us repair, but as It has been In use for a ceutury and ahalf thore is a strong presumption that it has met the public requirements. ' But hew ever bad it might be, Its con ditleu would be no Justification for taking it away from its owners; and the Kissibil ity te "substitute a better article at a mod erate price would net help the right claimed. It Is the necessity for the new use, net the Inadequacy or the old, that Is the basts for such a change. The rule as te only enjoining irrcparable Injuries has no application te acts, especially oerKnito acts, entirely without authority, for which there Is no adequate measure of damages at law. Such acts equity always enjoins. On the whele case it is (intliely clear that the a a nellee's claim rests upon no teal necessity, but only upon u convenience or Its ew n making, ami which lias regard only te ex pense. The right therefore arises neither from condition granted nor from any necessary implication from the charter privlleges.aud hence does net exist ut all. The Injunction prayed for iu the uppcal should be granted nndiiiade perpctual. The decrce reversed and record reuiitlisl for decree In uccordaure with this opinion. KITKCT OF Till: DIXlStOM. This ruling or the court destroys the theory cr the case advanced by the parties who tried te get the Injunction against the maintenance and erection or tellgates, und It forever prevents the turnpike ceniiny from exercising uuy rights upon the read, which it appropriated und piked, and leaves It us the company found It, a free public highway, a township read, uuder the con trol of the suK.'rvlsers of tlie res(octlve townships through which it passes.
