By HENRY ELLIS, F.R.S. Sec. S.A.
Keeper of the Blanuscripts in the British 31useum.

Jester, Will Somers, from an Illumination in that bloparch's own

which Prince Charles sent to the Parliament to save his father's
life; also from Autographs in the British Museum.
" Mr. Ellis has performed his task in a manner so satisfactory
and so able, that our respect for his judgment and intelligence, high
as it was before, has been greatly raised. The letters are chosen
with much discrimination, and not only throw strong lights upon
many interesting points of our national history, but in a remark.
able manner illustrate a number of political questions hitherto in-
volved in inexplicable intricacy."—Literary Gazette.

All No epoch in the History of Europe is so pregnant
with events of consequence to subsequent relations of society, as
the Reigns of Elizabeth of England and of Henry the Great of
France, contemporaneous in period, and rivals in the splendor and
genius of their respective Courts. Miss Aikin's elegant volumes
have introduced us to a close acquaintance with the policy and in-
trigues of the great officers who directed the councils of Elizabeth,
and those of the Court of Prance during the same period are recorded
only in the works of Sully, Prefixe, and the lighter productions
which develop the Memoires Secrets during the reign of Henry
the Great, and which form the basis of the present history of his
reign.
That the present work is ably written, and exhibits a spirited
narrative of facts, will be manifest from the extracts which follow.
The account of the massacre of St. Bartholomew is the fullest in
our language, and so curious that we have judged it proper to trans-
fer the entire article, for its own sake, as well as to exhibit the
talents of the author."—Monthly Mag.

formances, have never yet been witnessed."—Dibdin's Library
