The enterprisng publishers have here presented

desiderGtlnn-a prompt, cheap, and comprehensive
series of reports of all the decisions of all the Eng
lish courts. The series commences with the cases
of the November term, 1850; and we observe in the
first number decisions pronounced in Westminster
Hall on the 30th january, 1851. This Is unparal-
leled despatch In the history of legal reporting
Westminster is here brought two years nearer to
than our own court house, The style in which
the work is issued reflects great credit upon the
publishers, editors, and all connected with t.
The page is large, fair, white, and readable. The
table of cases and index seem TO be prepared with
much care and diligence The former strikes
executed on very useful plan referring not only
to the case and page of the volume but containing
also short abstract of the subject of each case.
The editors notes scattered through the volume,
referring to American decisions, and still more to
the value of the work. The publication is to be
continued in monthly parts or numbers, making
ably low price of $40 per annum We trust both
editors and publishers will receive ample remuner-
alton for the service they here doing the legal
profession.
Such publication, we think, cannot fail to be
useful TO the profession and profitable to the pub
