STEPHEN. LECTURES ON THE HISTORY OF FRANCE;

By the Right Hon. Sir James Stephen , K.C.B. LL.D., Professor of Modern History in theUniversity of Cambridge . Second Edition. 2 vols. 8vo. 24s. cloth.

** These masterly Lectures by Sir James Stephen , successor to the lamented Professor Smythe in the University of Cambridge , although they take rather new ground, will be found to cast a flood of light on the external and internalhistories of the French people, discussing as they do fully and with consummate ability, as was to be expected from the

author of Ecclesiastical Biography, the monarchical, judicial, and economical institutions of the Great Nation.The

present Lectures are at once profound [imdl discriminative. They are written in a style of singular fascination, and evento the general reader they present historical truth in the attractiveness of romance. We indulge the hope that they willattain a large circulation, especially among those classes who are so latetudinariun as to ignore the painful but palpablefacts of ecclesiastical history. Eclectic Review.
