Born in Paris, 12 Dec., 1823; died at Versailles, 13 March, 1872. He took an early interest in economical and political questions and contributed articles to the “Annales de Charité” and “Le Correspondant”. In 1850 he was elected vice-mayor, and in 1853 mayor of the tenth district of Paris. His publications won for him membership in the Académie des sciences morales et politiques (1864). He was at that time prominent among the “Liberal Catholics”, an ardent friend of Montalembert and Lacordaire, and was supported by his party for the office of deputy of Paris. He received 6000 votes, but his democratic opponent won by an overwhelming majority. Among his many religious, pedagogical, and sociological works we may name: “Essai sur la vie, les méthodes d’instruction et d’éducation, et les établissements de Pestalozzi” (Paris, 1848); “Lettre sur l’état du paupérisme en Angleterre” (Paris, 1854); “Progrès de la science et de l’industrie au point de vue chrétien” (Paris, 1854); “Abolition de l’esclavage” (Paris, 1861), crowned by the French Academy; “Quelques mots sur la vie de Jésus de Renan” (1863); “Condition des ouvriers français” (1862); “Espérances chrétiennes” (posthumous publication).<\/p>\n
