ENGLISH LAW AND EQUITY REPORTS.
To the Legal Profession.

INllE FIRST YEAR Of the publication of the
Il English Reports IN LaD and Equity closes
with the sixth volume. Hereafter this series will
be published only in ool,imes, and the issue OF
parate parts will be discontinued. 1t is found that
the second part Of each volume follows rapidly
after the first, that the advantages Of publishing
by parts are unimportant. Each volume will here
alter appear once In two months, in the same fize
and style as heretofore, and at the same exceed
ingly low rate OF 81 per volume to permanent sub
scrlbers.
The profession need not be reminded that this il
the only series OF Reports, either in England OF IN
this country, which attempts to contain ALL the
decisions Of ALL the English courts. In Il is ser ns
every reported case Except nsi pyius dccsions)
given in FULL, without condensation abridg
ment and the profession may rely upon having IL
accurate republication of the English cases.
II may be proper -.so to state, that in England
there are no regular reporters, authorized by law
as in this country but that each series of Reports
is there conducted solely IA a private entcrpri se,
by private reporters. And it 10 believed that for
PRoMPrNEss, ACCURACY, cLEARNEss, and REvITY -
the essential requisites in any Reports-the Law
Journal and the Jurist Series, not surpassed by
any rival series in England, and they have often
been found more correct. See the late case IF
Crotts Beale, 6 Eng Rep, 40S, tohere the com
parafiDe accuracy Of The La,D Journal Reports and
the cOntemp0rdnfOus reports of Manning g. Gran
ger, as TO the true pleadings in Jormer case, ,urs
directly inUoired. In that case jeruis, the Chit Jas
tice Of The Common Pleas, 0bseroed: 'H is clear that
ne plea ~ Sison Us. Kidman, as reported in Man
~
ported in Tie LaU Journal Reports, just as my bro
Mer Maule supposes r" In addition to the foregoing
points OF superiority in these Reports, they will
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
nall in Clark and Finney's Reports in the House
of Lords; +. f. Moore's Reports in the Priyy
Council; the Reports of Simons, Hare, Beavan, De
Gex and Small, and Macnaghten and Gordon in
the Courts of Equity; Adophus and Ellis, Man.
ming, Granger and Scott, and Welsby, Hurstone
and Gordon, in the Common Law Courts; also the
Criminal Reports of Denson, Temple and New,
and f. W. Cox; the Admiralty Reports of Robin
con, and the Ecclesiastical Reports of Robertson
combination OF legal reports entirely unequalled
in any country.
Additional value will also be given to this series
from the fact that hereafter, they will be digcsted
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.

GENTLsnEN: In reply to your letter, can with
great sincerity say, that ] entertain a very high
opinion OF the recent Exchequer Reports. In my
judgment they not cxcelled by any contempo-
raneous Reports, in learning, ability, or general
utility and interest. The cases decided are dis
cussed with great care, and cxpoundod with un
common force. ! scarcely know oil any volumes
which deem Of more importance or value fora
professional library. JOSEPH STORY
