Messrs. LITTLE s. BRowN: In the prompt repub
lication of the "English Reports in Law and
Equity" you tender to the profession most i'm
portant service. The first volume of these Repors
includes cases decided in the House of Lords,
Privy Council, Courts of Equity and Common Law,
from and after Michaelmas Term, 1850; also,
"Crown CaseS Reserved, and Cases in the Ecclc.
siastical and Admiralty Courts" And the second
third, fourth and fifth volumes, which you have re-
published, include the cases decided in the above
courts in 1851.
These Reports, like all other works which pro-
coed from your press, arc executed in most sub.
staniial manner and do credit to the enterprise of
the publishers. l became a subscriber for them as
soon they found with the booksellers in the
West, and am convinced, that from THEIR CHEAP
NESS AND EXTENT OF MATTER, THEY MUST SUPER
sxDE, AT LEAST IN THIS COUNTRY, ALL OTHER ENG
LIsH REPORTS OF LATE DECISIONS.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
JOHN MCLEAN.

head of the law whence have been derived, for the
most part, the several systems, more less modi-
fed, daily administered by the courts of this coun-
try: And. however modified these systems may

Messrs. LITTLE .BRowN-- Gentlemen: BY your
publication of the English Law and Equity Re-
ports, think important benefit ia conferred on
the legal profession in this country. The fidelity
with which these Reports appear to have been thus
far made, their com pact and convenient arrange
ment, their early publication, bringing down the

try, together with their cheapness, ought to be
sufficient Recommendations to insure their general
