LEICESTERSHIRE. 
A correfpondent of the Leicefter Journal 
laments the neglected ftate of the Library in 
that town, and recommends to the governors 
of the free fchool, to examine it and reftore it 
to its ancient and original purpofe. This li- 
brary, commonly called the Town-library, 
contains, it is well known, a number of very 
{carce and Valuable books ; it was begun to 
Le ere€ted in the year 1632, at the fole ex- 
pence of the corporation, was completed in 
1633,. and gave free accefs to any one. Col- 
le&tions of books and money were made both 
in the town and county, to furnifh it, and ac- 
cording to a catalogue taken in 1775, the 
books amounted to rd00 volumes. “The laft 
donation made to it was hy the Rev. J. Har- 
ryman, re€tor of Pecleleton, (about 60 years 
ago) whogave, hy his will, upwards of go 
volumes. Inthe year 1676, Mr. Jacob Baut-. 
humley, at thet time librarian, publifhed a 
book, dedicate’; tothe mayor and aldermen 
of the Bosougls, which has the following paf- 
fage: <* Your Worhhips’ pious devotion te 
religion and learning is apparent to all men 
who love either.” It likewife_appears that 
formerly young gentlernen educated at the 
free-{chool., were accuftomed to examine and 
erufe the looks in this library.” This cor- 
re{fpondent further obferves (and reprehends 
the cireum {tance as not very creditable to the 
tafte and li terary attainments of the prefent 
day, that bout g years ago, a number of gen- 
tlemen, p art of the company of the Mayor’s 
feaft, dine d in the library, when fome hun- 
dreds of the books were unchained, removed 
from their places, and as a proof of inattention 
to learning and claffical infruétion, have lain
