taken in this city for years, but their cost
has denied them anything like a general circula-
ton. Their value, however, is fully appreciated
by the whole profession who, we have no doubt,
will hasten to avail Themselves OF the opportunity
Of possessing themselves Of the republication OF
Messrs. Little x Brown, which can be had at less
than one-fifth the expense of the original works.
From the Boston Courier
The enterprising publishers have here presented
10 the legal profession, we judge, a long felt
desiderGtlfm-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
feat number decisions pronounced in Westminster
Hall on the Both January, 1851. This is unpara-
leed despatch in the history of legal reporting.
Westminster is here brought two years nearer TO
us than our court house. The style in which
the work is issued reflects great credit upon the
publishers, editors, and all connected with IT,.
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 as
executed on very useful plan, referring not only
to the and page of the volume, but containing
also short abstract of the subject of each case.
referring to American decisions, and still more to
the valGe Of the work. The publication is to be
continued in monthly parts or numbers, making
each year six large octave volumes, for the remark
ably low price of $40 per annum We trust both
editors and publishers will receive ample renuner
alton for the service they are here doing the legal
profession.
Such publication, we think, cannot fail to be
useful TO the profession and profitable to the pub
hshers.- Philadelphia Legal Iateiiigenca.
