AN article 10 this paper Of Thurs.
day last relating to books and the
public taste for reading matter, was
based upon expressions ventilated by
an intelligent and observant bookseller,
and while a rather unpalatable dose,
in mental sense, did not attempt to
take in the entire reading community,
nor was it as sweeping as some may
imagine. 1t was not altogether one
sided, either. There are many among
us who read books, and good ones and
there are some who have a taste for
select reading matter OF standard
character that cannot be obtained ex
cept through an order sent by some
book merchant to the publishers.
