THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.
To the Editor of the Glebe.
Sir,— No doubt the Public Library has much to commend it to the citizens and visitors of this city, but one cannot help thinking that the Board of Governors have lately carried their parsimony t"> the extreme in discontinuing the London mall, and thus depriving the frequenters of the public reading-room of a dally London paper, more especially when European affair* are exciting so much attention, and cannot but prove highly 1: teresting to an English community. It certainly says little for the management to find similar Institutes in the smaller towns of the colony bett-r supplied In this respect than that of the Cathedral city ; also, the Continental towns, Tnrkiah cafes, and tho more important towns of both Americas, whore a traveller at least will always find a copy of the London “Times,” together with other leading journals. Yours, &c., TRAVELLER. August 31st, 1882. !
