MEMOIRS OF THE COURT OF MARIE ANTOINETTE, 
Queen of France; by Madame Campan, First Lady of the Bed-Chamber to the Queen ; 
uniform in size and style with "Secret Memoirs of the Empress Josephine," in 2 
vols., with a Portrait. A new Edition, with three additional chapters, post 8vo., 
Cloth, extra gilt. $2 00. 
"As a picture of manners during the latter years of Louis XT., and the entire 
reign of his successor, it has no superior: it is at once more decent and more vera- 
cious than the 'Life of Dubarry,' and the thousand other garbled memoirs of that 
period. A large number of notes, explanatory and otherwise, accompany the volume, 
and add materially to its value. Mr. Hart has published the book in a style of 
great elegance, and illustrated it with portraits, on steel, of Marie Antoinette and 
Madame Elizabeth. It is a book that should find a place on every lady's centre- 
table." — Saturday Gazette. 
MEMOIRS OF THE HOUSE OF ORLEANS ; 
Including Sketches and Anecdotes of the most distinguished characters in France

Biography of the Age of Elizabeth," &c, with Portraits, 2 vols., 760 pages, cloth, 
extra gilt. $2 50. 
"Then, too, we have, to complete the picture, Henrietta, sister of Charles the 
Second, and her daughter Maria Louisa, Queen of Spain, both of whom died by 
poison; Elizabeth of Bavaria, the coarse, plain-spoken, but witty successor of Henri- 
etta; the infamous Berri, daughter of the Kegent; the chaste wife of the fifth duke; 
and many more. In a word, the Memoirs abound with all the interest of the 
highest wrought romance, and that without departing from the strictest veracity ; 
they form, indeed, a moving panorama of the principal personages of France, of 
both sexes, for the last two centuries."— Keal's Gazette.

"There is no more romantic chronicle in history than the story of Anne Boleyn, 
aa we trace her progress up to the throne and then down to the scaffold. We know 
no work which gives us a better view of private ami domestic life in England in 
that day, and can confidently recommend it as a delightful piece of biography, 
valuable fur the information it imparts, and narrating adventures which keep up 
the interest to the end." — Albany lieyister.
