r. Coote, Esq., with notes and references to Amer
lean cases. vol. lvo., 800 pages.
Several years having elapsed since the last edition
ofPowell on Mortgages became out of print, il was
thought that the appearance of a new, greatly en-
larged, and much improved English edition OF
Coote on Mortgage presented an excellent oppor-
tunity for offering to the profession in this country

With this object the book was placed in the hands

Law Dictionary, adapted to the Constitution
and Laws of the United States of America, and of
the several States of the American Union: with
References to the civiland other systems of Foreign
Law BY John Bowler. Third edition, much
improved and enlarged.
The great improvements effected by the able edi
tor have rendered this edition far superior to
those preceding as to enable the publishers to place
it before the profession, with the strongest claims
upon their attention, as being decidedly the most
useful law dictionary offered for sale in the United
States.
From the Boston La,D Reporter, lS4S.
owe are happy TO announce third edition of
this valuable work, very much enlarged. More
than twelve hundred new articles have been added
to those contained in former editions, and many of
the latter have been entirely remoulded
at is sometimes the fashion to decry Law Die
tionarics. II would be about well to decry die
tionarios of the English language. There is un-
doubleday period IN professional life after which
recourse would rarely be had to such works for in
without one, isqute as erroneous as to suppose that
Yankee could find his way about London without
pocket map. Even the list of Authorizations in
Bouviers Dictionary is of great value to all law
students, who have no friends to ask questions Of
How else could a student learn what q stood for?
"ln conclusion, we only hope that the work
will find ready and extensive sales
