MORTGAGES. A Treatise on the Law of Mort
cages, by r: II. Cootc, Esq. Second American,
r. Coote, Esq., with notes and references to Amer
lcancas vol. lvo., 800 pages.
Several years having elapsed since the last edition
Of Powell on Mortgages became out Of print, it was
thought that the appearance of new, greatly en-
arged, and much improved English edition Of
Coote on Mortgage presented an excellent oppor-
tunty for offering to the profession in this country
reprint of SO valuable and standard an authority.
With this object the book was placed in the hands
of an editor to whom was confided the preparation
Of American notes. This duty has been well done,
Upon some of the most important points the notes
are quite elaborate and all exhibit great care and
diligence in their preparation The title "as -
what will constitute mortgage" "who may re-
deem, and when,'s "as to what will and will
not constitute mortgage Of personal property. =

are ali examined carefully, and illustrated by re-
ference to large and valuable mass of authorities
We think the work will be found an important ad-
dition to every law library.

Ing valuable additions to the Legal Literature of
the day.

"We are happy TO announce a third edition of
this valuable work, very much enlarged. More
than twelve hundred new articles have been added
70 those contained in former editions, and many Of
the latter have been entirely remoulded.

tionaries. 1t would be about as well to dccry die
tionaries of the English language There is un-
doubtedly period in professional life after which
recourse would rarely be had to such works for in

ssIn conclusion, we can only hope that the work
will find a ready and extensive sale"
