A Farm tor Sale.
The subssrlcer offers at private sale, the
plantation whereon lie nyw resides about nine

.'s-tiv.-'i Turnpike Koad, being-one of
the ¦>' ¦"'• of its size, of
;lny wi ' j.nie distance of sail cily—
xes. A
; progression so pleasing in its nature, and be-
! neficial in its effects, which the institution
has certainly accelerated, cannot fail of secur-
iiif, to it, a continuance of protection and pa-
tronage.
A Library, formed with a Av.a respect lo
Religion, and morals, which docs not exclude
works of genius, and amusement, which
contains the most esteemed writings of every
country, and the best books on the different
arts, and in every branch of science snd lite-
rature to whose ample stores, all persons
may have access at a trifling expence, must
rank amongst the most useful, and laudable
institutions in societv.
To select a Library, in conformity with
these principles, calls for the Union of diffe-
rent talents, and various information. It must
however be recollected, that although with a
limited annual sum, all valuable books cannot
at once, be introduced, yet, that in time and
successively, all of the greatest value, or im-
portance, which can be procured, may find
admission.
With such prospects, the Library company
of Baltimore, was instituted, and under the
influence of corresponding principles, it has
been uniformly and steadily conducted down
to the present hour. Believing it to be tho
wish of the members, to continue to society
the advantages of the institution, will it not
be considered indispensable >
1. That the directors should not be obliged
to apply any part of the moines now annually
expended in the purchase of. Books to any
other object ?
2. That the means be provided competent
to procure a lot of ground, in a suitable situ-
ation on wliicli may be erected, when it shall
become necessary, a commodious building,
for the deposit, of the Books of the Company ?
With respect to the first, The Directors
would lament the occurrence of any circum-
stance, that should abridge the annual supply
of Books, or the increase of the Library, up-
on this point, they fell assured they concur
in opinion with the great body of Stockhol-
ders.
With respect to the second point, they also
flatter themselves with a Concurrence, for
although fixed in their determination to retain
the room now possessed by the company, as
!oug(if permitted by its proprietors) as it will
serve to contain their books, yet, as the time
must come when it will be inadequate to that
purpose, the directors consider it prudent and
advisable, that the company should be provid-
ed against such an event.
A Let of Ground in a suitable situation,
maybe now had on reasonable terms. Should
the purchase be deferred, who will insure to
the company, that we shall be able to get a
suitable lot hereafter ? The probability is, if
we neglect to buy now, that we either cannot
be accommodated at market when we cannot
longer do without a lot, or must pay, for a '
convenient situation, an extravagant price
Acting under these considerations, the di-
rectors recently proposed to lire Company an
additional contribution of tixo dollars per an-
num, to be paid on each share,fot 8successive
years. This proposed contribution, so easy
and equal in its operation, which to each
member would have amounted to sixteen
dollars only, was unanimously agreed to,
at a meeting of the company, convened on the
26th May last, but at a subsequent meeting
(the concurrence of two being required for its
confirmation) from some members misconceiv-
ing (the object of the measure, & the necessity
of making the purchase, at this time, not being
felt, or but slightly felt by others, it was re-
acted by a majority of the few who attended
on that occasion.
The necessity of adopting the measure, still
pressing upon the directors with undiminished
force, they conceive it to be their duty, to call
he attention of the company again to "the sub-
ject, mere especially as they cannot permit
themselves to entertain a doubt that a revision
by men, *riend!y to the extension of the artsiaud
literature among us, will lead to a favorable
result. The f flowing proceedings were ac
irdingly had, at a meeting of their body, held
the 1st July initant:
