Ii will be pero eived by the enumeration of titles,
that the volume comprises subjects of every day
occurrence to the practitioner. In themselves, they
furnish so many comPendious treatlses upon the
actual state of the law. Ii Is like Mr.. Smiths
Leading Cases, III plan, and mode of annexation,
and extends this method 70 other titles not en-
braced IN Mr. Smiths volumes; and is, in effect,
continuation OF that work. Those who are familiar
with the last preceding American Editions Of

This volume by Nj. Hare is no less satisfactory
than its predecessor by Mr.. Wallace Ii is fully
equal il in every point ofview The Select Decisions
thirty in number; chosen with great judgment
and annotated with discrimination and the most
ample learning.
We arc satisfied that our friends Messrs. Wal.
lace and Hare, will receive the hearty thanks OF
the profession for this second joint contribution &c
our standard law books The science of law is
only 10 be adequately learned through the medium
of adjudicated cases, and when the student has,
IN the book before US, important and leading ones
only pointed out 70 him, but fully and carefully
considered, with ample and thorough notes, ambi-
ton has additional incentive and Incidence
ceases TO have a excuse.
il has long been part Of the practical instruc-
ton at the Dane Law School al Cambridge, q
point out and comment important adjudiosted
cases; and MIR Smiths Leading Cases has become
textbook for the purpose. We do not entertain
a doubt but that Messrs. W allace and Hare's wOrt
will receive, as il deserves, the attentive con
sideration Of both the professors and the students
of that important and Influential school Of legal in
structon.
