ENGLISH LAW AND EQUITY REPORTS


VJNHE FIRST YEAR of the publication of the
l. English Reports in La,o and Equity closes
with the sixth volume Hereafter this series VIII
be published only IN polumes, and the issue OF Sc
parate parts will be discontinued. II 10 found that
the second part Of each volume follows SO rapidly
after the first, that the advantages OF publishing
by parts are unimportant Each volume will here
after appear once in two months, in the same szc
and style as heretofore, and at the same exceed
ingly low rate Of y per volume to permanent sub
scrbers.
The profession need not be reminded that this is
the only series of Reports either in England or IN
tbis country, which attempts to contain ALL the
decisions OF the English courts. In Il ia series
every reported (eScept nisi pTius declsons) 10
given in FULL, without condemnation or abridg-
ment, and the profession may rely upon having an
accurate republication of the English cases.
1t may be proper '!so to state, that in England
there are no regular reporters, authorized by law
iii this country, but that each series OF Reports
il there conducted solely private enterprise,
by private reporters. And it is believed that Tor
PRoMPrNEss, ACCURACY, oLEKnHEss, and BREviTv-
the essential requisites in any Reports-the Law
Journal and the Jurst Serie7, not surpassed by
any rival series in England, and they have Often
been found more correct. See the late case Of
Crofts Beale 6 Eng Rep, 1857 ,chers the CON.
paratioe accuracy Of The Lao Journal Reports. and
the contempoyanr0is reports Of Manning y Gran
ger, to the true pleadings in a former case. ioas
directly inU0lped In that case, Jevpis the Chit JUS
ice Of the Common Pleas, observed: ''H is clear Hat
the plea IN Sison Us. kidman, az reported in Man
ported in The Lao Journal Reports is just asmy bro
Mer Mauls supposes s." In addition to the foregoing
points Of superiority in these Reports, they viii
be found to contain many valuable cases not
elsewhere reported, while NO CAsE 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 Jurist and Law Jour
nal; in Clark and Finnelly's Reports in the House
of Lords; E. F. Moore's Reports in the Privy
Council; the Reports Of Sinons, Hare, Beavan, De
Gex and Small, and Macnaghten and Gordon, in
the Courts of Equity; Adolphus and Ellis, Man
ming, Granger and Scott, and Welsby, Hurlsone
| and Gordon in the Common Law Courts; also the
Criminal Reports of Denison, Temple and New,
| and E. w Cox; the Admiralty Reports Of Robin
son, and the Ecclesiastical Reports of Robertson
a combination of legal reports entirely unequaled
in any country.
Additional value will also be given to this serics
from the fact that hereafter, they will be dgestcd
in the annual volumes Of the United States Digest
The first six volumes will be contained in Vol "
of the Annual Digest, now in press.
We also beg leave to refer the reader to the an
| nexed recommendations.

GENrLEMEN: My engagements here have not
! permitted me 10 examine particularly your rcpub

But. as far as have been able to look into them
they appear to be correctly and well executed
! And II they continue to be republished with the
promptness Of the volumes already out, and at the
| price mentioned, they will be great convenience
to the Bench and the Bar and fail to attract
their attention. take pleasure in recommending
! them.
