Boleyn's guilty relations with the King were formally denounced in more than one Papal brief, and the imputation was never denied. None of her contemporaries doubted her guilt, and it would be idle to pretend to disbelieve it now in the face of the evidence collected in this volume. Mr. Gairdner has not attempted to challenge comparison with his predecessor as an historian, and those long historical introductions which were a labour of love to Mr. Brewer will henceforth be discontinued. It must be confessed, however, that they were foreign to the proper office of a calendarer, and that their fulness could only be justified by the editor's special qualifications and devotion to the subject; but although it is an irreparable loss to historical literature that Mr. Brewer's commentary was interrupted at so critical a period, his successor has done his work so well within the limits prescribed to him that we need have no misgivings for the successful completion of the calendar. Prize Translations, Poems, and Parodies. Reprinted from the Journal of Education. (Walker & Co.) THE editor of the Journal of Education may fairly be congratulated upon having discovered an amusement which, as he says, "is at least as profitable as double acrostics." He has offered prizes for the best translations of certain French and German poems, and now reprints a selection from the most successful contributions. Speaking generally, those from the German are better than those from the French, probably from the closer affinities between the former language and our own. In none of the versions here given is the peculiar cachet of De Musset at all caught, although it must be admitted that Miss Shore's "J'ai perdu ma force et ma vie" is a creditable attempt. Nor have any of the writers at all reproduced the lofty scorn of Corneille in the "Ravages du Temps" (here unaccountably shorn of two of its stanzas), or advanced upon the excellent paraphrase of Mr. Frederick Locker, one verse of which has long seemed to us to be beyond improvement: "In days to come the peer or clown, With whom I still shall win renown, Will only know that you were fair Because I chanced to say you were." But if high praise cannot be awarded to the renderings of Corneille and De Musset, Mr. Donald McAlister has produced a really excellent Scotch copy of Béranger's "Mon Habit," and (save and except the absurd translation of faucille as "scythe ") Mr. Bourdillon's "Wild Flower" pleasantly re-echoes Gustave Lemoine. Mrs. Stracey's version of Charles of Orleans is also good. But why does this lady, as well as Mr. Bourdillon, entitle this form "Triolets" (sic)? No modern critic would call it a "Triolet," still less "Triolets." Strictly speaking, although there may be some confusion in the old Arts de Rhétorique, Charles of Orleans never wrote a triolet; but he wrote a great many rondels, of which "Dieu, qu'il la fait bon regarder" (we quote from D'Hericault's edition) is one. We must not omit to say a word for the clever parody of " De Profundis" at the end of the book. The epigrams, however, lack brevity and finish. On the whole, we hope the editor of the Journal of Education will give us some more selections from his "Parnassus." If the present samples cannot be wholly commended, they show abundantly that there is a great deal of literary facility stirring which only requires the stimulus of opportunity. THE Sacristy (New Series, No. 1, for April, Hodges), under the editorship of Mr. E. Walford, M.A., and Mr. G. G. Scott, M.A., enters upon a new life, which we trust may be long enough to enable it to throw much light upon the numerous topics, antiquarian and archæological, with which it proposes to deal. The illustrations comprise subjects of architectural interest, from the Oratory at Birmingham to the conventual Church of Sion in the valley of the Rhone. The articles touch upon fairy superstitions as well as upon brasses and purely architectural questions. There is a wide field of usefulness before the revived Sacristy, if it fulfils even but a portion of the programme set before us by Mr. Walford. the list of contents on the title-page it will be seen to AN advanced copy of Our Times has reached us. From how diverse a class of readers this new monthly appeals for patronage. IN view of the approaching debates in Parliament on the Irish Land question, we cannot do better than draw the attention of our readers to the series of pamphlets issued by the Irish Land Committee, 26, Great George Street, S.W. 66 Notices to Correspondents. ANON.-The evidence produced is a charter in Gale's Registrum Honoris de Richmond, which runs thus: 'Ego Willielmus cognomento Bastardus, Rex Angliæ," &c. To Mr. Freeman (Norman Conquest, ii. p. 581) this document appears "palpably spurious," and he goes on to say that "those who accept it allow it to be unique." That others gave William this designation is, of course, well known. Whether he gave it to himself must be decided by individual students of history, according to the weight they allow to the evidence offered. wife of Ruy Gomez de Silva, favourite of Philip II. K.

B.-We have seen similar statements elsewhere, and believe the facts to be reported correctly, so far as they relate to the existence of such a claim and such an association.

Those eminently Practical Sciences of Hygiene, House Management, Ventilation, Drainage, and Architecture, with their kindred Sciences, will be considered, while Inventions of all kinds will be Chronicled and Explained. In OUR TIMES will contain every Month a Record OUR TIMES the greatest Interest of the Country of Current Events, with a free and independent Criticism of those Journals which, in this Country, America, and the Continent, lead Public Opinion. OUR TIMES Magazine will take its stand on patriotism; pride, without insolence, in the past; hope for the future; and the maintenance of Institutions which have made this Realm of England great, will yet keep her great and make her greater. -Agriculture, will receive attention Month by Month; and every Month there will be a Letter to Friends Abroad, which may also be read by those at Home.
