MR. MIGNET, whose condensed _History of the French Revolution_ is best known to American readers in the cheap reprint of Bohn's Library, and which in Paris has passed through numberless editions--will soon have completed his History of Mary Stuart, which is destined, probably, to supersede every other in the French language. Mignet is perpetual Secretary of the Academy of Moral Sciences, and was for many years head of the department of Archives in the Foreign Office. As a man of letters and a sedulous inquirer, no French author enjoys higher reputation. * * * * * Lamartine has just published in Paris _The History of the Restoration, from 1814 to_ 1830, in eight volumes. The work has been composed hastily, and probably by several hands, for money. The poet has also published _The Stone Cutter of Saint-Pont_, to which we have before referred--a new book of sentimental memoirs: they pall after two administrations. * * * * * The _Histoire des Races Maudites et les Classes Reprouves_, by Francisque Michel and Edouard Fournier, publishing at Paris, with illustrations, has advanced to the twentieth number. The whole is to contain a hundred numbers, forming three volumes. * * * * * M. Michelet, the well-known professor of history in the College de France, has incurred a vote of censure from his associates on account of his lectures to the students, which, we infer from notices of them, are quite too republican and socialistic to be approved by the directors of affairs. * * * * * A new work, by M. Theophile Lavallee, entitled _L'Histoire de Paris et ses Monumens_ from ancient times to 1850, has just been published at Paris, with illustrations by M. Champin. It is warmly commended by the _Debats_. * * * * * MULLIE, of the University of France, has published in two large octavos, a Biographical Dictionary of the Military Celebrities of France, from 1789 to 1850. * * * * * A second edition of the new _Life of the great Chancellor D'Auguesseau_, by M. BOUILLE, has been published in Paris. The book continues to be praised. * * * * *
