TIE NURSERY FOR FEBRUARY.-Among the ten
derest recollectons of childhood is the memory
Of the frequent receipt of primers, yeow-covered,
red-covered, superblv illustrated and containin g

falling into disuse. Still the little folks ought be
remembered. Mr.. John l.. Shorey's Nursery y

ers is calculated we think, at very cheap rate To
supply this want. The print is large and pleasing
