The Carnegie Institute at Pittsburg, Pa. — Twelve years ago Mr. Andrew

Carnegie founded a library for Pittsburg. He afterwards enlarged the foundation by a department of fine arts and a museum. To these objects he devoted the sum of £3,620,000. In the April of last year a celebration of this splendid foundation was held, with meetings, concerts, lectures, and a banquet. In this stately volume these things are recorded, and together with them the congratulations addressed by various learned bodies in the Old and New World.
