The attention, which she gave to the education of her children, was most edifying ; and they answered to her cares. The dauphin, in particular, promised to be a true imitator of the va- lour, the wisdom and the piety of St. Lewis : and he bestowed the same edifying attention on his own children. It was a custom in France, that, when a child, in the direct line of inheritance to the throne, attained a certain age, he was presented to the' curate, and his name was inscribed on the parochial regis...ter of baptisms. When the late unfortunate Lewis the sixteenth, attained the age, required for this ceremony, the dauphin presented him to the cu- rate, and the parochial register was produced.
