 We have also received from John K. Randall, Wa ter street, volume 9th of the series of Biographies of lhe Queens of England from the Norman Conquest, with anecdotes of their courts,' by Agnes Strick- land.

 This is very instructive series of historical por traits-not merely dry summaries from previous his tories, but narratives djesed from masses of mate rals now first brought to light from collections of original manuscripts and official records. They are not merely pleasant biographies, but valuable con- tbutions to history.

 The subject of this memoir is Mary Beatrice of Modena, wife of James II, woman of whom histo- " has said little, and whose name has been undis- tingushingy passed down to insignifcance amidst the iumuts of that eventfnl era-yet of all Queens who ever occupied the throne of England, she s one of the most amiabe and unspotted, as one of the most unhappy. Mrs Strickland has drawn faithful history of her life, conduct and sufierngs principally from original French materials, to which she has had access through the kindness of the pre- sent prime minister, Mir. Guizot Many suffering years of her life were passed at St. Germa ns, and French memoirs and darles of that time abound in the state paper offices of France Out of these ma tsrals and the manuscripts of the record office m England, Mrs. Strickland has made delightful vo- iime. sf
