Woman In France In The Eighteenth Century

BY JULIA KAVANAGH,

Author of " Madeleine, a Tale of Auvergne." In one neat vol., royal 12mo , extra cloth.

In treating other subjects of her gallery - as for instance those widely different personages, Mdlle. Aisse' and Madame Roland - Miss Kavanagh puts forth a pathetic power which gives depth and repose to a book that in other hands might have become wearying from its unmitigated sparkle.

The critic dealing with such an encyclopedia of coquetries, amours, vicissitudes, saffe rings, and repentances as the history of"Woman in France"must necessarily be, is fain to content himself with offering merely a general character like the above. Such is the fascination of the subject - such is the fullness of matter - such is its affluence of suggestion - that every page tempts him to stop for a gossip or for speculation of modes and morals.

Which among us will ever be tired of reading about the Women of France ? especially when they are marshaled so agreeably and discreetly as in the pages before us. - The Athenoeum.
