To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Xever were so many persons reading anytltUKj before as now ui a few of the States of the Union. Wliole chisscs now read tliat once were wlioUy ignorant. Of course, when a State bci^-ins its iournev in tlu' worUl of literature, it takes the easiest patli ; reads tlie news 158 THE NORMAL SCfTOOL AND OBSERVATORY; of the claj ; is interested chiefly in pithy and sketchy methods of conveying information ; pre- fers monthly picture-books ilhistrated with read- ing to permanent works of genius ; and i...f it enters the domain of books, craves those which have grown out of the news23aper and magazine, and demand only an ordinary comprehension for enjoyment. Thus we should rather rejoice that so many have began to read in JS^ew York, than turn with disgust from much they do read. That this phenomenon of journalism in its pre- sent form is to be permanent, we have no belief. It is a sort of railroad to carry our people over from ignorance to a love for good literature, and is doing the work with as few accidents as could be expected.
