BY AGNES STRICKLAND.
`• We take this opportunity of expressing our thanks to Miss Agnes
Strickland for the tenth volume of her Lives of the Queens of Eng-
land, and especially for her memoir of Mary of Modena. Miss Strick-
land has made a very judicious use of many authentic MS. authori-
ties not previously collected, and the result is a most interesting ad-
dition to our biographical library."—Quarterly Review.
.` There is certainly no lady of our day who has devoted her pen to
so beneficial a purpose as Miss Strickland. Miss Strickland is, to our
mind, the first literary lady of the age."—Morning Chronicle.
