_Montaigne, Select Essays of._--
"Essays selected from Montaigne, with a Sketch of the Life of
the Author. London. For P. Cadell, &c. 1800."
This volume is dedicated to the Rev. William Coxe, rector of Bemerton.
The life of Montaigne is dated the 28th of March, 1800, and signed
_Honoria_. At the end of the book is this advertisement:--
"Lately published by the same Author 'The Female Mentor.' 2d
edit., in 2 vols. 12mo."
Who was _Honoria_? and are these _essays_ a scarce book in England? In
France it is entirely unknown to the numerous commentators on
Montaigne's works.
