Montchesni, or Muncey Family.

—Can any of your correspondents inform us what has become of the Norman line of Montchesni, or Muncey, a family which, like those of Maldebauge and De Loges, held baronial rank in England for several generations after the Conquest, though it is now forgotten?

Epitaph on Voltaire.

—The late Sir F. Jeffrey, in a review of the correspondence of Baron de Grimm, quotes an epitaph on Voltaire, which he states to have been made by a lady of Lausanne:

"Ci gît l'enfant gaté du monde qu'il gata."

Has the name of this lady been ascertained?
