Severalye having elapsed since the Last edition
of Powell on Mortgages became out Of print, it was
thought that the appearance Of q new, greatly en-
larged, and much improved English edition Of
Coote ON Mortgage presented an excellent oppor-

a reprint of so valuable and standard an authority.
With this object the book was placed in the hands
of an editor to whom was confded the preparation
of American notes. This duty has been well done.
Upon some Of the most important points the notes
quite elaborate, and all exhibit great and
diligence in their preparation. The title Gas /,
