In the evening I went with Count Circourt, and made my first visit to Thierry, the author of the admirable history off. About a dozen gentlemen were there, of whom I knew only Tourgueneff and Count Circourt. He knew I was coming, and when my name was announced received me frankld disagreeable. December 30.—I took the whole of this evening to go with Count Circourt all the way to the Bibliotheque de l'arsenal, to see Charles Nodier, who i Paris. The bad part of the matter, however, was that we did not see Nodier. Circourt had warned me beforehand, that when his daughter and her husband chance to go as we might have been. The best of the matter was the drive of two hours with Circourt, who, at my request, related to me in great detail, and with picturesque effec

Mr. Ticknor's second return from Europe resembled the first in the happiness it brought, and in the warmth of affection with which he was greeted bhis city, a work which has obtained great success in England as well as in this country, and which is beginning to be known in France and Germany. Our friend Count Circourt published an elaborate review of it lately in the Bibliotheque Universelle, giving it great praise; and Hallam, Southey, and others of the best judges in Englm we are all very fond. Mrs. Ticknor desires her kind regards may be given to Mrs. Milman and yourself. Very faithfully yours, George Ticknor. To Count Adolphe de Circourt, Paris.

are permitted to rule, by the weak tolerance of men who know better, and are stronger than they are. In a society where public opinion governs, unsound opinions must be rebuked, and you can no more do that, while you treat their apostles with favor, than you can discourage bad books at the moment you are buying and circulating them. . . . . To Prince John, of Saxony. Boston, U. S. A., July 30, 1848. My dear Prince,—Your kind and interesting letter of the 14th of May, with one from Count Circourt, written after he had been at Dresden, have kept you almost constantly in our thoughts of late. Indeed, it is difficult to think of anything else but the changes that are now going on, like a solemn drama, in Europe; not only because the fate and fortunes of so many of our personal friends are put at hazard by them, but because they involve so deeply the cause of Christian civilization and the paramount interests of our common humanity. We feel, to be sure, comparatively safe oursel

We think and talk a great deal of you, and long to see you. Always yours, G. T. To Count Adolphe de Circourt. Naples, March 27, 1857. my dear Count Circourt,—I received in Rome your very kind letter, enclosing one for Count Goyon, and your little note introducing Mrs. Gaskell and her two daughters . . . . . We enjoyed very much our acquain two most agreeable days; and he afterwards went for a day or two to Gurcy, the country-place of M. d'haussonville, where he once more saw the Due de Broglie. In a letter to Count Circourt, written a few years later, after the death of Mad. de Circourt, and immediately on receiving news of the death of the Duchesse de Rauzan, Mr. Ticknor sketches his experience in his four visits to Paris:— As you say truly, the traditions, even, of that old society which once made Paris so charming are

British pluck will, I think, stand the ministers in good stead on this occasion, as it did in the war with Russia. I came home before two, and wrote to you and Circourt till four, when I made a very agreeable visit at Holland House, where I went into the old library and turned over a good many curious books, the very positions of which I remembered, so that when Lord Holland mustered up a knowing person and sent him to me,—for I went to the library alone,—I found him useless. Lord and Lady Holland were receiving a good many friends, and I lounged with them some time, after which I made a visit to Macaulay, who lives near, and with whom I had a long and in
