We do not often find leisure TO read what is
called Light Literature" We are therefore
compelled to rely upon the kindness of friends
who have more taste and leisure, for reviews Of
the various works of that kind which are pla-
ced ON our Book Table. An evening or two
ago, whilst confined to sick room, we took up
the September number of Graham's Magazine.
The names of Mrs. Sgourney, Alfred B. Street,
and W. Gilmore Sims. amongst those Of host
of capital writer's, was sufficient guarantee for
the entertaining character of the reading matter
of the number. We need not say that the couch
of sickness was relieved of much Of its weari-
ness by the pleasure we derived from the peru
sal of the pages of the Magazine.
In addition TO the interesting reading matter,
we are presented in this No. with two beautiful
cngravings-"Six Months before Marriage"
and The Family Pet" las well as a Fashion
plate for the Ladies.
