“A few months back we had the pleasure of welcoming the Life of S. Francis de Sales. Here is the promised sequel:—the ‘Selection from his Spiritual Letters’ then announced:—and a great boon it will be to many. The Letters are addressed to people of all sorts:—to men and to women:—to laity and to ecclesiastics, to people living in the world, or at court, and to the inmates of Religious Houses. And what an idea it gives one of the widely ramifying influence of one good man and of the untiring diligence of a man, who in spite of all his external duties, could find or make the time for all these letters. We hope that with our readers it may be totally needless to urge such a volume on their notice.”—Literary Churchman.
