people,"—the " bustling Botherbys of society," as
they have been called.
It is impossible to do more than give the names
of Mrs. Trollope's other novels, " Tremordyn Cliff,"
" The Robertses on their Travels," "The Blue Belles
of England," " The Ward of Thorpe Combe," " The
Attractive Man," Petticoat Government,"" Father
Eustace," "Uncle Walter," " The Clever Woman,"
" The Three Cousins," " Mrs. Matthews, or Family
Mysteries" (1851)," Gertrude, or Family Friends"
(1855), " Fashionable Life in Paris and London"

(1856), &c.
Trollope's writings are characterised by
great ability, but this ability is marred sometimes
by a too ready habit of mocking and sneering, and
a somewhat unfeminine style. But she has deser-
vedly a high reputation, and, in exposing vice,
hypocrisy, and injustice, she has done much good.
She has gone to her rest at the good old age of 84,
but she had long passed out of the mind of novel
readers as a "living celebrity," one of the " Women
of the Time," though her last work was written on
the verge of 80.

Two of Mrs. Trollope's sons have distinguished
themselves in the world of letters. Mr. Anthony
Trollope, the author of " Barehester Towers,"
" Frawley Parsonage," "Doctor Thorne," " The
Kelly's and the O'Kellys," " The Three Clerks," &c.,
is as prolific a writer as his mother. ?Ir. Thomas
Adolphus Trollope, educated at Winchester and at
St. Alban's Hall, Oxford (under the headship of the
illustrious archbishop whose death we record this
day), has written two volumes on Brittany, " The
Life of Filippo Strozzi," "The Girlhood of Cathe-
rine de Medici," "La Beata," and other works.
His "Tuscany in 1849 and 1859" made some noise
at the time of its appearance in consequence of its
containing texually the orders of the Grand Duke
of Tuscany to fire upon his people, the existence of
which had been denied by the friends of the de-
posed kinglings in the House of Lords. Mr. Thomas
Trollope's wile (nee Garrow) translated into Eng-
lish Niccolini's world-renowned "Arnaldo di
Brescia," and has communicated to the Athena um
some valuable papers on the social aspects of the
revolution in Italy.
