Mane do Commes, Miw Dorothea Baird. Louis XI., King of France, has been a v favourite character with novelists and dramatists. ..Walter Scott has immortalised him iv Quentm Durward" and Victor Hugo ia "Notro Dame do Park." Cruel, cunnmg, and unscrupulous, Loui* XI., by his genius as a monarch, succeeded in uniting 1* ranee under hiß rule. Afc his accession ho found himself confronted with a number of turbulent vassals, at the head of whom waa Charles the Bold, Duko of Burgundy. By his statecraft Louis succeeded in destroying tho power of those vassal Lords, and the defoat and death of Charles the Bold of Burgundy play a prominent part in tha drama. Ia the last years of his lifo Louis became a prey to the terror of death, and it is in tho cruelty and suspicion of his' last years that tho dramatist has cho6en to portray him. Hib cruelty Was shown | by the lite-long imprisonment of an unfaithful Minister in an iron cage, his superstition by the image of tho Saints, which ho carried in his cap, and whoso forgiveness for the crimes ho had committed he was in the habit of invoking. Louis XI. was contemporary with Henry VI., Edward IV., and "Richard 111. in England, and ho figures a» a, character in the third part of Shakospeare's "King Henry VI."
