ENGLISH LAW AND EQUITY REPORTS.
To the Legal Profession.


rINHE FIRST YEAR Of the publication of the
l. English Reports in Lam aud Equity closes
with the sixth volume. Hereafter this series Will
be published only in voi,nes, and the issue OF Sc
parate parts will be discontinued. II is found that
the second part of each volume follows 30 rapidly
after the fret, that the advantages OF publishing
by parts are unimportant. Each volume W VI mere
alter appear once In two months IN the same rlzc
and style as heretofore, and at the same exceed
ingly low rate of y pervolumc to permanent sub
scIibers.
The profession need not be reminded that this is
the only series of Reports either in England or In
this country, which attempts to contain ALL the
decisions Of ALL the English courts. In II ID serlcs
every reported case except nisI prius dccsions ID
| given in FULL without condemnation or abrldE-
mcnt, and the profession may rely upon having ala
accurate republication of the English cases
! 1t may be proper LAO to state, that in England
| there regular reporters, authorized by law,
in this country, but that each series OF Kepor'a
is there conducted solely as private enterprise
by private reporters. And 1t ID believed mat Ioi
PROMPT Ess, ACCURACY, cLEARNEss, aud BREVirY-
the essential requisites in any Kcports-th Law

any rival series in England and they have often

points of superiority in these Reports, they VIII
| be found to contain many valuable cases not
elsewhere reported, while NO Gaze IN ANY other
other series will be omitted in this. Arrangements
have been made whereby this series will contain
all the reported cases in the Jurst and Law Jour
nal; in Clark and Finnclly's Reports in the House
of Lords; +. T. Moore's Reports in the Privy
Council; the Reports of Simons, Hare, Beavan, De
Gex and Small, and Macnnghten and Gordon in
the Courts of Equity; Adolphus and Ellis, Man

and Gordon, in the Common Law Courts; also the
Criminal Reports Of Deniaon Temple and New ,
and T., w Cox; the Admiralty Reports Of Robin
son, and the Ecclesiastical Reports OF Robertson
a combination of legal reports entirely unequalcd
in any country.
Additional value will also be given to this series
from the fact that, hereafter, they will be digestcd
in the annual volumes Of the United States Digest.
The first six volumes will be contained in Vol. Y.
Of the Annual Digest, now in press.
We also beg leave to refer the reader to the an

will hasten TO avail themselves of the opportunity

than fifth the expense of the original works.
From The Boston Courier.
The cnterprising publishers have here presented
TO the legal profession, as we Judge, long felt
desiderat,l@ 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
first number decisions pronounced in Westminster
Hall on the Both January, 1851. This is unparai-
eled despatch in the history Of legal reporting.
Westminster is here brought two years nearer to
US than our own court house. The style in which
the work is Issued reflects great credit upon the
publishers, editors, and all connected with 1t.
The page is large, fair, white, and readable, The
table of cases and index seem 10 be prepared with
much care nd diligence The former strikes us
executed on a very useful plan, referring not only
To the case and page Oft the volume, but containing
also short abstract of the subject OF each Gaze.
The editors notes scattered through the volume,
referring to American decisions, and still more to
the value of the work. The publication is to be
continued in monthly parts or numbers, making
each year six large octave volumes, forthe remark
ably low price Of SO per annum. We trust both
editors and publishers will receive ample remuner-
alton for the service they are here doing the legal
profession.
Such publication, we think, cannot fail to be
useful 10 the profession and profitable to the pub
lishers,- Philadelphia Legal hateiiigencr.
