taken in this city ior years, but their cost
has denied them anything like general crcula-
ton. Their value, however, ID fully appreciated
by the whole profession, who, we have doubt,
will hasten to avail themselves of the opportunity
of possessing themselves of the republication of
MeesrS Little & Brown, which can be had at less
than one 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
desiderafun-a 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
Hal! on the 3Oh January, 1851. This is unpara-
lclcd 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 it,.
The page is large, fair white, and readable The
table OF cases and index seem to be prepared with
much care and diligence. The former strikes us as
executed on very useful plan, referring not only
also short abstract of the subject of each case.
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 elk large octave Volumes for the remark
ably low price Of $40 per annum. We trust both
editors and publishers will receive ample remuner-
alton for the service they here doing the legal
profession.
Such publication we think, cannot fail to be
useful TO the profession and profitable to the pub
fishers. PHILADELPHIA Legal Inteltgencr.

GODEY'S LADY'S BOOK FOR 1859.
increase Of Reading Matter!

TIME LADY'S BOOK for the ensuing year will
l. present many novel features suited to the ad-
vancing demands of the public TASTE 1t has ever
been the object of the publisher to take the lead
among the popular Magazines Of this country; and
the host of imitators, who have been constantly
following-"toiiing after him in vain''-are suffi.
cient to attest his brilliant success. The prompt
ness with which every new idea that he suggests is
adopted by others, is sufficient for his not
being very explicit and exact in his promises Of
what ia yet to come. He does not wish to lay out
plans for others to follow. tis sufficient, however,
to say that all the existing popular features of the
LApY's Book will be retained, and many new ones,
particularly attractive in a Lady's Book and Fam-
ly Magazine, will be introduced The useful and
the elegant will always be kept in view.
To the Magazines alone must look for the
illusions of the master minds of Literature. 1t is
useless TO publish list of names-suftice it say

tain in addition TO the most beautiful and numerous
engravings-Mrse 4f inhich are col0red-an addi
tional quantity of reading by American authors

thousands of notices that we have from the con-
temporary press will establish it, that it is the most
magnifcen periodical in the World,
The publisher will give twelve numbers for 1852
that the London Arts Union would be proud Of
and their price is ten dollars year.
II must be observed that the LADy's Book caters
TO the taste Of the American Ladies. 1t furnishes
