What the People Read.

PUBLIO LIBRARIAN'S INTE RESTING STATEMENT A library and reading room in cod* ntction with the. Bonny bride Public Halls near Edinburgh, ware opened recently by Mr Hew Moriaoo, prin cipal librarian, Edinburgh ifrecEublie Library, who delivered an address ion r What ihb People Read. J> Iff t«B6, he saidj the number of poblio librariei Was 133; to-day there were 340, of which 86 <were,iin §oct;iand. The greaj reading was' no ?el rjbrdiog, and he pro^» eeeded to deal with ibe Hie of the novel toiits present enormous propor tions. When m 1880 Sir Walter Scott was in the middle of the [Waver* ley-Novels* the,B?mb«r of Works of fiction which isiiaed from the Britiih Press that year wai 26, wbiUt the year before laat the number of novels, including new editions, aatfrpfa^, to 2179. II han«o«d tofe >rt6fhi« work qaite recently to examins tfeit stock of north fa th« KdinbWßh Lib rary to determine which of them should, on account of befog worn oat and soiled, be replaced, and no part of his work fora loa^ time back afforded him more instruction. In the case of many of the new novels the first part of the book wu mach fingered,, and bore traces of some* what careful perns*!. This was followed by, a li>ng centre space qaite clean, the end chanter being again as mach soiled as the first. The books to which he referred were in many cases the productions of the men and 1 women of to-rdiiy, whose names were household words. The readers in a public library fell into their cLwi»tJß ai readily and irt distinctively at did the travellers io * railway train. The reader of books on- philosophy Occa sionally coDd^econded to read * novel. 1 but he made it piaiii, that that was be* cause some friend of hit or some other body whoo be knew, or-'in whom b& had an interest, wu goioajj * third class'also, Ever, among novel readers themselves there were- dhtinot classes each following hiß own path. They ranged themselves more on the matter of authors than of subjects, A Marie Ooreili reader deupised an Annie Swan devotee ; while the admirer of George Meredith elmnned and heartily pitied both of them. Statistics as to reading in public libraries were more reliable when applied to the readers than to individsbl bocks. As an example of this, he gave his own ex rience with ons of Sii Walter Scott's novels. He did not think-there were many, if any at alj r - wbo regarded •Count Bobert of Parts' as Sir Walter Scott's beat and mobt popular novel. The reverse was the opinion which was generally entertained, but still 'Count itrbert 1 held the record of the Waverley^ Novels, so f»r as beicgoitenest borrowed from the Edinburgh Public Library was concerned. How was that to be ac~ oounted for and explained? Although' they had six full sets of the Waverley in circulation, readers could rarely find 'in the one they wantdd. Resolved to have something of Sir Walter Scott's, they tock anyone, and the one mpst freqaenty 'in' was 'Count Robert.* He was very much afraij that it was not read nearly so often as it was borrowed, but that after rfading a few pages it waa promptly returned by the dissatisfied borrower. They found that the novels least in demand were those which dealt with shades of religions beliefs and with tbe exceptional cir cumstances of life. The novel most in demand was that which was founded in the greatest measure npon human experience. Othors might for a mom ent throw it into the shade, bet it ever kept on its s beady fiow.t-,. It *ai the old love story which Burns had so well epitomised in his song of "Duncan Gray."

Driven around in a snow blizzard off the cost of loeland on Marh 23rd, tbey were compelled, owing to the continu ance of the gfcle, to take up their quarters on the bridge, whence they were subsequently washed out, and had to barracade in the cabin. On tbe gsile moderating they walked ashore waidt deep, to find them selves in a lonely part of Moroyland with nearly 800 mile* to travel to Reykjavik, which with every assistance from kindly; Icelanders, they finally reached on April 1, and were even tually taken off by a mail boat. gANDEB & Sobs Eucalypti Kxtbaciv- Under the distingnlihed patronage of Hiß Majesty the King of Ktriy, awarded Diploma ill the International Exhibition, AautenW acknowledged by Mcdioal oHnie» sod Uni veraltie* all over the j{lob«.
