Many of the works in these various depots are scarce, and not easily procured at the present time. The library of the University contains a donation from the unfor- tunate Louis XVI., made during the Revolutionary war, all of which were printed at the royal printing office, and treat of mathematics, natural history, &c. The library of the Academy of Fine Arts contains a dona- tion from Bonaparte. The libraries of the Hospital and Alms House, contain the best works on medicine, sur- gery, and the sciences ; while those of the Academy of Natural Sciences and the Museum, are devoted to na- tural history and travels. The library of St. Augustine's Church, contains, we believe, the only complete copy of the " Fathers" in this country.

MILITARY.


SECOND BRIGADE.


The Second Brigade consists of the whole Militia and Volunteer force of the county ; but there is nothing to prohibit the Volunteer corps, either of the city or county, from attaching themselves to either Brigade .- As independent corps, this right belongs to them.


The Second Brigade is commanded by Gen. John D. Goodwin. Staff .- William O. Cline.


There are several fine Regiments, mostly consisting of country troops, attached to this brigade; but, as the general distance of their respective locations is so far from the city, we seldom, except upon occasions of great public excitement, are gratified with a visit from them. That part of the Brigade which resides within the city limits, consists of


Cavalry. Washington Cavalry, Captain Barras. Penn Township Troop, Captain Nixon.


Light Infantry.


Governor's Guards, Captain White.


Monroe Guards, Captain Streeper.


Northern Liberty Volunteers, Captain Goodman.


Penn Township Guards, Captain Lutz.


Lafayette Light Infantry, Captain Meady. Mechanic Rifle, a new corps.


The Washington Rifle corps, and several others whose names we are unable to learn, are but merging into existence.


Of the country part of this Brigade, that which has fallen particularly under our notice is the Holmesburg troop, solely commanded by Captain Breck. This may be considered as among the most superior of its kind within the limits of the state; their strength being from G

eighty to one hundred men, rank and file, and their superior horsemanship and discipline being of a kind that may be equalled, but not surpassed.


The Germantown troop, Captain Smith .- This is another of those whose horsemanship and skill far sur- pass expectation created by appearance.


There are, likewise, the Germantown Blues, the Frankford Artillerists, the Oxford Light Infantry, and a very superior corps now under command of Colonel Bomeisler.


The field officers of this Brigade, as far as we remem- ber, are Colonel Knap, Major Nathans, Col. Bomeisler. Brigade Inspector .- Colonel R. Bartle.
