It U Mid that four-fiithi of the novol
reading in this oouittrjr, nt llic present lime,
ii achieved by ladies. Bo Iruo ii ihii, I lint
r.ullisliers cater almost xclusiyety for the
female taste, In their selcctien of works for
issue. The consequence ii that tlx market
is flooded with high wrought picture! of
t!li life, for on claw of these ladjr readers,
iiml high wrought pictures af low life, for
another class, while tlie lardc article-ihe
nriicli which finds it way lu'o the best
families it surcharged and iniictified bj
a sickly and alonder religious sentiment
(hat ii hardly 1cm enervating than the ster)'
which forms ita vehicle. Now this ii not
very com)liinetiiiirj to I lie Indies, wo ad
mil, b'lt wo arc not to hlame fr the fact,
(ind certainly take no delimit In staling it.
There ia a fact, however, connected with
Ilia matter, which in slightly compli'men.
titry to them, or their nature. They allow
signs of a surfeit, and those, hooks aro be
ginning to be a drug in the market. This
fact will serve, we hoi, as a warning to
publishers against ministering to an un.
Iiealtlij appetite and a alow standard of
l.nle. They Imva brought literature into
disrepute by dissipating, rather than cher
ishiug, a healthy literary appetite ; andii
will lake many montha fairly to recover
from the degeneration. Now if they will
t;ike as much pains lo crowd before the
public good as they have inferior onif,
good books, sooner or later, will regain
their ground.
Tbore Is aomething in tho position of
American women which exposes them pe
culiarly lo the influences of an unworthy
literature. They partake of the national
resllemnets of mind, they are all readers,
and there is a very large clsss, especially
in cities, whe lm;e nothing to do but te read.
This lack of regular pursuits unfits thnn
lor any but light reading. They have not
the habit of application, time hangi heavy
on their Lands, and they simply neck for
tlintkind of reading which eat) bo pursued
Willi tho slightest outlay of efTort. They
cannot subsist on this kind of Intellectual
aliment long at a time, hu live on it lung
enough to insure several monster editions
and to stimulate; production to a sickening
turf"it. Thcro is unother class perhaps
larger than this u class-living in the coun
try intelligent country girls mid womon
whi, lending a tame, and, to litem, a tnitO'
lose life, grasp cngorly at such literary c.v
citemeiit, its are pressed to their tnslo ; and
si learn lo live in an nriifioiiilulmospltore,
while moving among their dully Ji(ni.i of
duties. Thnro is still another class, scat
tered every whore religions women who
wish for amusement, and who, while con
demning novels generally, will swallow a
story eagerly if it only be' peppered with
pious lessons, und salted with a moral.
Amerieun women should be soniotliing
rroro than mero Hory sw.illowera. They
hiivo roversed ihc otdcr of tilings, nnd do
vated novel rending to a pursuit. Novel,
though an important department of litera
ture, do not form the highest or most Im
portant department. They are, or should
be, incident til and suhtidary, and when his
tory, biography, natural philosophy and
criticism have fud the mind, nnd built up
within it sound wives of life, a iruo compre
hension of tho relations of events, and an
insight into human character, tho choice
of novels, for relaxation or study, will full
upon altogether a dillerunt class from that
upon which wolmvo animadverted. These
Milled Htid silly Sctious have no charms for
a healthy mind, nnd aro cast ifidu as the
most unsatisfactory chalT.
Placing to tho account of tho w omen all
tho bluiiie in the prr-misra which belongs
to them, nnd to their position all its disad
vantages and temptations, wo still havo
room to chargo the trade with alack of con
scientious consideration, in tho pursurt of
their business. They occupy nil important
post ona of the most important and res
ponsible filled by nny body of men in the
world. Headers will very generally be
what tlay make them. In other words,
people must nnd will read j and titty ne
cessarily take what is provided for litem.-
They will not drink from evil fountain
when the fountains aro dry. Honesty is
the best policy in literature, ns well as in
other pursuits : and if no higher consider,
ations bear upon tho publisher, he may be
well assured that, in tho long run, tho best
literature will pay the best. A food which
destroys the appotito will, after a whilo
render the sloward'a oflioo unnecessary,
while a wholesjmo d!t honestly adminis
tered insures steadings of consumption, and
a regular increase f hoarder. Let them
publish good novels, nnd the disproportion
between male and fenmlu reader will speed
ily le diminished. One (-rent reason why
men do not eomo iu tl,eir la,i j, .cflu.',
they do not provid food for men. Sjiring.
