De M. L'Abbé Barthelemi. Paris, 1802. 8vp. The author of the travels of Anacharsis has here exhibited himself in the midst of his favourite pursuits; the precious remains of antiquity are described with an accuracy seldom equalled, and in a style which renders the description attractive, even to those who are not particularly conversant or interested in these topics.
Parties in Athens were, however, utterly unlike many of those that rent the peace of the Italian republics; nor are they rightly understood in the vague declamations of Barthelemi or Mitford; they were not only parties of names and men they were also parties of principles the parties of restriction and of advance.
Barthelemi it is stained with his blood it has been handed on, from one to the other it was all that Jacques Durant rescued when he fled from the Dragonnades it was given to me by my own dear father on his death-bed, with a charge to keep it from my grandmother, and not to speak of it but to guard it as my greatest treasure.
She outraged my mother, that angel; essayed to convert the antechamber and the office; put little books in the Abbe's bedroom.

Poor Suzanne, she is one of the Rotrous, an old race of Huguenot peasants whom my aunt always protected; she would protect any one, but these people had a special claim because they sheltered our great-grandmother, Lady Walwyn, when she fled after the S. Barthelemi. When the Edict of Nantes was revoked, the two brothers fled.

«§ 1062. A l'extrémité de ces rochers, on voit une grande ravine, ou plutôt une vallée ouverte du nord au midi, dans laquelle coule le torrent de St. Barthelemi. Cette vallée termine les montagnes primitives que je viens de décrire: au-del
