every city in the Union is as much interested In
that policy as New York itself But if the gentle
man will bring forward Tor any city a case like
this, where there is competition between an Ameri-

sustaining the American line For instance, We

tect our line against any competition that England
may bring against it,
But know OF no such case. II ia easy to defeat
an application of this kind by saying that if you
grant this you may grant others. Wait till they
come, and let us Judge of every case upon its own
merits. II turns out, upon examination of the pc
titions sent here, that twenty one cities of this
Union have petitioned in favor Of this nppropria-
ton; aud have not heard of more than one :
nonstrance against it, and that ia from the city OF
New York. have not heard the slightest objec-
ton to this allowance from any other city of the
Union. have no doubt that there is some oppo-
sition to II in the city of New York; but that OPP

Messrs LITTLE & BRowS: ! think you have laid
the profession under great obligations, in the re-
publication OF the English Reports in Law and
Equity" in this country.
The low price at which the volumes arc offered,
will enable the bar generally in this way to fur
nish their libraries with the current English Re
ports, Of which many OF them have heretofore been
deprived. They will thus have ready acccss TO
the decisions OF courts sitting at the fountain
head OF the law. whence have been derived for the
most part, the several systcns, more or Ices nodi-
fed, daily administercdSy the courts Of this coun.
try. And. however modified these systems may
be, IL is manifest that thcse decisions must shcd
great light upon the investigation Of most Of the
caees arising here.
Your plan, also, will furnish the profession in
this country with the cascs IMmrpIhTELY AFrEp
rHr PUsnCATIos IN EsoLArp. a CONDENSATION
OF the rissT InroRTAscE; for, If the Reports Of
cases decided arc OF any value, the sooner they
arc in the hands Of the profession tho better /
sincerely hope your cncoura cement from the bar
viii be commensurate with the merit Of the enter
price.
