NORTHUMBERLAND AND DURHAM.

A SORT of public library has been lately opened at Bamborough castle, by the direction of the trustees for managing the eftates of the late lord Crewe. The library is chiefly a donation from the late rev. J. Sharp, grandfon of the archbishop of York of that name, and contains the most valuable parts of the library of that prelate (being a comprehenfive collection of books in all branches of literature, particularly theology, ecclefiaftical history, English history, the best editions of claffics. political pamphlets, &c.) with the addition of fome other collections. It appears, that the charitable inftitutions, which now flourish at Pamborough caftle, have received much of their progreffive improvement from the Dr. J. Sharp, first-mentioned, who not only raifed the great tower from a ftate of ruins, and converted it into a commodious manfion for him elf and his fucceffors, but provided that it might never want fufficient funds for future reparation. From 1758 to his death, he expended confiderable fums, for the benefit of these charities, with little affiftance from the trustees. The library is open to the public one day in every week.

The fum of 781. 15s. has been lately remitted to Berwick bank, by the bishop of Durham, the dean and chapter of do. and the trustees of lord Crew's charity, as the amount of their fubfcriptions (in thares of 201. 15s. each) for the relief of the French ecclefiaftics.

Alkaline falts, viz. different forts of chryftals, barilla falts, pearl afhes, &c. of the manufacture of Lord DUNDONALD, are now preparing for fale, in large quantities, at the works eftablished near Newcastle. It appears, from a letter, publifhed in the Newcastle papers, by Mr. W. Hind, druggift and chymift, of Newcastle, and a number of other letters and certificates from eminent manufacturers, that the fale of the above articles is already established in that town and neighbourhood, and rapidly encreafing; upwards of 3000 perfons having been fupplied with them in the course of a few weeks) that the faving of foap for domeftic pu pofes, turns out to be confiderably more than what has been ftated in the printed notices; that the ufe of the falts will, in all probability, become generally adopted; and that, on the whole, the procefs of lord Dundonald is one of the most important difcoveries ever made in this country.
