who died in 1803; both these ladies were eminent actresses: and subsequently heentered the bands of matrimony a third time.

PIGAULT LE BRUN. Lately. At Paris, aged 83, M. Pigault Le Brun, author of the inimitable history of " 33.66 Jerome; Monsieur Botte;" "Mon Oncle Thomas; ""The Barons de Felsheim;" "Nous les sommes tous," and a score of other unrivalled novels.

Pigault Le Brun was the French Fielding; he possessed the same humour, the same truth to nature, the same graphic powers of description, the same occasional coarseness, and a far greater richness of imagination. In his delineations of low life-for he rarely attempted to pourtray, except in ridiculing, the manners of the higher classes-he stands unrivalled and alone. The rigid moralist may, perhaps, condemn many of his works, and prudery affect to blush at the homeliness of many of his expressions and characters; but take him for all in all, the good man's "failings leaned to virtue's side."

His

was the kindly satire and the laughing reproof which are often found to be more effective in putting vice to shame than the more elaborate and more bitter denunciations of natures less philanthropic. In all the novels of Le Brun we neither find a complete hero nor a complete villain-nothing either above or below the standard of humanity. He was an observer too exact and too patient ever to destroy the charm of his characters by departing in the least from the reality of nature. It is now sixty years since Pigault began to write. He was the best novelist of the day during the Revolution, and in his own peculiar department the best after it. Unmindful of the warfare of politics, and the dethronement of kings, he has pursued the even tenor of his way, scourging folly wherever it was to be found, and narrating, in simple and unaffected language, the loves, the sorrows, and the frailties of the poor. His Mademoiselle Javotte, in the amusing "History of Jerome the Foundling," is, notwithstanding all her errors, a creature whom it is impossible not to love-as sweet a creation as ever was pourtrayed by the imagination of a poet. Corporal Brandt, in the "Barons de Felsheim," is in nowise inferior, and quite as good in his way as the inimitable Caleb Balderstoun of Sir Walter Scott.

Aged 70, the Rev. John Watson Beadon, Rector of Christian Malford, Wilts, and Farley Chamberlain, Hants, Precentor and a Prebendary of Wells, and Precentor of Brecon.
