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 

 power," 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 :
