promptness of the volumes already out, and at the
price mentioned, they will be great convenience
to the Bench and the Bar, and cannot fail to attrac\
their attention. take pleasure in recommending
them. .3 '.1 d" "' ''''' .""#'"@

WARRINGTON, January 26, 1852.
Messrs. LITTLE & BRowN- Gentlemen: By your
publication of the English Law and Equity Re-
ports, think an important benefit IL conferred on
the legal profession in this country. The fidelity
with which these Reports appear to have been thus
far made, their compact and convenient arrange
ment, their early publication, bringing down the
decisions of all the important Courts to period
far within those of any Court in our own coun-
try, together with their cheapness, ought to be
sufficient recommendations to insure their general
use. ..a.sA
