I apprehend it will be but flat ; I have taken little trouble with it ; I am to make some kind of speech, along with others. The thing seems really as if it were taking life. * Carlyle's speech was indeed a real success, and so was the meeting. The speech is so characteristic, and so full of sensible remarks as to the purpose and scope of the London Library, that it should be read in full as reported in the newspapers. We read in the Examiner of Sunday, June 28, that the meeting of Wednesday, 2...4th, at the Freemasons' Tavern was * Nezv Letters, i. 19S. 62 CARLYLE, ETC. " crowded to overflow, " and was attended by persons *' of literary and political distinction. " Lord Eliot, Lord Monteagle, the Rev. H. H. Milman, and Lord Lyttelton made clear and practical speeches, insisting on the necessity of books being taken from a library for any serious study, whilst the ordinary circulating libraries mainly contributed ephemeral literature. Mr. Carlyle was received, says the report, "with loud cheering, " and his characteristic speech is reported in full.
