_Voltaire, where situated_ (Vol. iii, pp. 329.433.).--The inquiry, "Where is Voltaire situated?" was answered in a late number, and reference made to the _Essays of an Octogenarian_, a privately-printed work, and therefore not generally accessible; but the subject will be equally found elucidated in the _Gentleman's Magazine_ for July, 1846, p. 25. No such place ever existed, as there made clear; for it is the simple anagram of his patronymic, Arouet l j (_le jeune_), framed by himself though by Condorcet and other biographers, ignorant of the fact, supposed to be a landed property. Voltaire loved not his paternal name, as will be there found, and gladly changed it. The article embraces various particulars of Voltaire's life, in refutation of Lord Brougham's errors; some of them strange enough, and not inconsiderable in number, so as to excite surprise in so accomplished a person. J. R. _Children at a Birth_ (Vol. iii., p. 347.).--See _Quarterly Review_, No. xxix. vol. xv. p. 187., where Southey quotes _Hakewill's Apology_ as authority for an epitaph in Dunstable Church to a woman who had, at three several times, three children at a birth; and five at a birth two other times. A. C. _Milkmaids_ (Vol. iii., p. 367.).-- "May 1.--I was looking out of the parlour window this morning, and receiving the honours which Margery, the milkmaid to our lane, was doing me, by dancing before my door _with the plate of half her customers on her head_."--_Tatler_ for May 2, 1710. R. J. R. _"Heu quanto minus," &c._ (Vol. iv., p. 21.).-- "Heu quanto minus est cum aliis versari quam tui meminisse," is the end of an inscription at the Leasowes "to Miss Dolman, a beautiful and amiable relation of Mr. Shenstone's, who died of the small-pox, about twenty-one years of age," in the following words. On one side: "Peramabili suæ consobrinæ M.D." On the other side: "Ah Maria puellarum elegantissima Ah flore venustatis abrepta Vale! Heu quanto minus est," &c. Shenstone's _Works_, 1764, vol. ii. p. 356. C. B. This quotation is Shenstone's "Epitaph on his Sister." J. O. B., however, has given it incorrectly: it should be-- "Heu quanto minus est cum reliquis versari quam tui meminisse." Moore has done something towards giving the force of this strikingly concentrated sentence, thus:-- "Tho' many a gifted mind we meet, Tho' fairest forms we see, To live with them is far less sweet, Than to remember thee."
