LEICESTERSHIRE AND RUTLAND. 
It is in contemplation to eftablifh a {malt 
circulating library at Leicefter, confitting of 
plain practical treatifes on moral, religious, 
and other fubjects, for the ole ufe of the poor. 
This appears a laudable plan for enabling them 
to profit by the inftructions afforded primarily 
at parochial and Sunday {chools, which, other- 
wife, they are not likely to do, as books are 
too expenfive for them to purchafe. An of= 
fice is opened, where all who are difpofed to 
encourage this atterapt, may fend books, and 
where the poor, by applying on certain ap- 
pointed days, will have books lent them, for 
avery {mall acknowledgment. 
Seventy innkeepers in Leicefterfhire were 
laft week convicted in the mitigated penalty 
of rol. each, with cofts, for felling ale in un- 
ftamped meafures.

of ancient filver coin were difcovered in a 
tan-yard in Stafford, about a yard below the
