Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Report Committee on the Library: In Relation to the Donations Received From the City of Paris, With a Catalogue of the Reciprocal Gifts Exchanged Between the Two Cities, With the Names of the Donors; Together With the Proceedings of the City Government Upon the Subject of International E In the year 1843, the City Authorities received from the Municipal Government of Paris, through the hands of Mr. Alexandre Yattemare about fifty volumes of valuable hooks, and, in 1847, a further donation arrived, consisting of rare and useful works relating to internal police, general and local statistics and history, illustrated with engravings, and making a collection of nearly one hundred volumes. These noble gifts were, at the time, properly acknowledged by appropriate votes, passed in the City Council, which the Mayor was instructed to notice and forward in a manner suited to the dignity of the City he represented. But the government were desirous of responding to the generous munificence evinced by their transatlantic friends, in a manner more worthy of the high character and public spirit which Boston has ever manifested upon occasions of a similar character, and a few months since appointed your Committee to attend to this duty.
