THE ATHENAE UM.
? TO THE EDITOB OF THB EVENING POST. Srs— The Athenaeum Committee's balancesheet shows that the subscriptions of members are in arrear to the tune of .£lO7 12s 6d. How is this? I 3 not this mismanagement with a vengeance? What right has the librarian to issue tickets of membership without receiving the subscription? The rules are distinct that an individual wishing to join the institution must pay the quarterly, half-yearly, or annual subscription. What possible excuse i 3 there for the librarian or the committee permitting any person to enjoy the privileges of a member until he has actually become a member in the manner prescribed by the rules? I ask, sir, does anyone believe that a single sixpence of this JBIO7 12s &d subscriptions in arrear will ever be collected ? I am, &c, FINAKCE.
