 And for Sale by Booksellers generally in the United States. 



THE following books are particularly adapted for family reading, and we 

 do hope, as our political troubles are ended for awhile, that our friends will 

 now settle down to their " sober second thoughts," and as " knowledge is 



wer," and "information capital," that instead of being satisfied with the 

 periodical trash of the day, they will store their minds with something 

 more solid, and for that purpose make a selection from the following list :
