PREFACE.

The favourable reception accorded to our first introductionof Madame Guizot's Tales to the EnglishPublic, leads us to hope that our youthful readers willwelcome with pleasure another volume from the penof that talented writer.

This new series will be found in no respect inferiorto the former; one of its tales, certainly, has even adeeper interest than anything contained in that volume,while the same sound morality, elevation of sentimentand general refinement of thought, which so strongly recommendthe "Moral Tales" to the sympathies of theParent and Teacher, will be found equally to pervadethe present series.
