"A Bride Bush, or a Wedding Sermon, compendiously describing the duties of married persons. By performing whereof, marriage shall be to them a great helpe, which now find it a little hell. London, 1617. 4to. On Eph. v. 23." I believe a copy of the sermon may be found in the Bodleian Library. Two propositions contained in this sermon led to Whately's being convened before the High Commission, when he acknowledged that he was unable to justify them, and recanted May 4, 1621. (See Wood's _Ath. Oxon._ by Bliss, vol. ii. col. 638.) JOHN. I. DREDGE. _Louis Napoleon, President of France_ (Vol. vi., p. 435.).--Modern history furnishes more than one instance of the anomaly adverted to by MR. RELTON. After the murder of Louis XVI., his son, though he never ascended the throne, was recognized by the legitimists of the day as Louis XVII.; and on the restoration of the family in 1815, the Comte d'Artois assumed the title of Louis XVIII. In this way the revolutionary chasm was, as it were, bridged over, and the dynasty of the elder Bourbons exhibited on an uninterrupted line. So it is as regards the Napoleon dynasty. The Duke de Reichstadt, Napoleon's son, was in the same predicament as the son of Louis XVI. He received from the Bonapartists the title of Napoleon II.; and Louis Napoleon therefore becomes Napoleon III. A similar case _might_ have occurred to the House of Stuart, if the Pretender's son, who began by taking the title of Henry IX., had not extinguished the hopes and pretensions of his ill-fated race, by exchanging his "crown" for a cardinal's hat. And to-morrow (though that is perhaps a little too soon) the same thing may happen again to the elder branch of the Bourbons, should the Comte de Chambord (Henry V.) leave a son of that name to ascend the throne as Henry VI. HENRY H. BREEN. St. Lucia. _Chapel Plaster_ (Vol. vii., p. 37.).--For an explanation of the word _plaster_, on which your correspondent has offered so elaborate a commentary, I would beg to refer him to White's _Selborne_ (vol. i. p. 5; vol. ii. p. 340., 4to. edit.): "In the centre of the village, and near the church, is a square piece of ground surrounded by houses, and vulgarly called _The Plestor_. In the midst of this spot stood, in old times, a vast oak.... This venerable tree, surrounded with stone steps, and seats above them, was the delight of old and young, and a place of much resort in summer evenings; where the former sat in grave debate, while the latter frolicked and danced before them. "This _Pleystow_ (Saxon, Plegstow), _locus ludorum_, or play-place, continues still, as in old times, to be the scene of recreation for the youths and children of the neighbourhood." _Chapel Plaster_ is, I believe, an outlying hamlet belonging to the parish of Box; and the name imports merely what in Scotland would be called "the Kirk on the Green"--the chapel built on, or near to, the playground of the villagers.
