If such an article can he procured,for less than one cent for each working day of the year, we are not aware of it. A family newspaper should contain a carefully prepared summary of all the news of the day, both religious andsecular; and if arranged so that the two departments may be separated and read by two individuals at the same tlVhe, so much the better. The family newspaper should have attractive reading and information for the various members of a household. Some portion of the paper should be devoted, every week, to religious and moral improvement, to current secular news, to agriculture, commerce, markets, finance, to general literature, &c., with a special department for the young.
