ENGLISH LAW AND EQUITY REPORTS.
To tho Legal Profession.

10 tho Lc8ut FrOIcsSlOn.
VNHE FIRST YEAR of the publication of the
i English Reports IN Lap and Equity closes
with the sixth volume Hereafter this series will
be published only IN uolumes, and the issue OF Sc
parate parts will be discontinued. Ii Ia found that
the second part OF each volume follows so rapidly
after the fit st. that the advantages OF publishing
by parts unimportant. Each volume Will here
after appear once in two months, in the same size
and style heretofore, and at the same exceed
ingy low rate of So pervolume to permanent sub
scribers.
The profession need not be reminded that this 10
the only series of Reports, either In England or In
this country, which attempts to contain ALL the
decisions Of the English courts. In this series
every reported case (eScept miss prts decsions) Is
given in FULL, without condensation or abridg-
ment, and the profession may rely upon having an
accurate republication of the English cases.
IL may be proper Lao 10 state, that in Engla
there no regular reporters, authorized by law,
as in this country, but that each series OF Reports
ID there conducted solely as private enterprise,
by private reporters. And it is believed that for
rRoMPTNEss, ACCURACY, CLEARNEss, and sREvIrY-
the essential requisites in any Reports-the Lag
Jour nal and the Jurist Seres not surpassed by
any rival series in England, and they have often
been found more correct. See The Late case Of
Crofts Us. Beae, 70 Eng Rep. 40S ,ohert the COM
paratipe accuracy Of the La,o Journal Report., and
the contemporaries reports g Manrirc = Gran

ttce9 the Conctn Pleas, observed: at Is clear that
He Jaee ~ nison Us. Kidman, as reported in Man.
1FAg. $40, is not correct. The plea, as ii is re-
ported in The Lao Journal Reports, just as my bro
tter Mauie supposes In addition TO the foregoing
points of superiority in these Reports, they will
be found to contain many valuable cases not
elsewhere reported, while 40 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 Fnne!ly's Reports in the House
of Lords E. F. Moores Reports in the Privy
Council; the Reports of Simons, Hare, Beavan, De
Co. and Small, and Macnaghtcn and Gordon, in
The Courts of Equity; Adolphus and Ellis Man
ming, Granger and Scott, and Wesby, Hurlstone
and Gordon, in the Common Law Courts; also the
Criminal Reports of Denison, Temple and New,
and f. w. Cox; the Admiralty Reports CT Robin
son, and the Ecclesiastical Reporto of Robertson
combination of legal reports entirely uncqualled
In any country.
Additional value will also be given to THE series
frcrn the fact that, hereafter they will be digcsed
in the annual volumes of the United States Digest.
The first six volumes will he contained in VOL V.
of the Annual Digest, now in press.
We also beg leave to refer the reader to the

The New British Ministry,

The Russell Ministry having at length
crumbled away, straight-out Conservative
Cabinet has taken its place. The new
Premier, Earl DERBY, better known by his
former title of Lord Stanley, is noble
man Of unblemished character, high toned
principles and respectable talents. He
has shown cOmmendable good sense and
appreciation of merit in confding the Chan
cellorship and leadership of the House of
Commons to Mr.. DIsRAELI, known to the
novel-readipg public as the author of WV
Ian Grey 'Conigsby,' &C., and decidedly
the most brilliant debater on his side of the
House. He has been the architect of his
own fortune, and his selection for this post
is a compliment to Literature which will
not be forgotten.
The appointment Of Mr.. G. f. YOUNG,
the most Jealous and interchangeable Pro-
tectioHist agitator in the Kingdom, with
that Of Lord Mas and others of the same
stripe. leaves no doubt as to the reaffrmance
Of the principle Of Protection by the new
Ministry cautiously, moderately, we pre-
sumo, for the Premier is polite states
man; but nevertheless decidedly. We an-
ticipate the proposal Of a fixed duty on
Wheat Of about five shillings per quarter,
OF some Is cents per bushel, in the plo-
gramme Of the new Ministry.
The 'Peelites,' or Conservatives who
aided in the overthrow Of the Corn. Laws,
seem to be wholly left out of the new Ad-
ministration-at least, we do not now re-
cognize the names of any of them in the
list. Their leader, Sir James Graham, cer-
tainly dees not figure there. Ii may be,
however, that his bitter hostility to the Ec-
clesiastical Titles bill was remembered in
this, as we note the absence also of his CO.
adjutor in that hostility, the Earl of Aber-
deem, formerly Foreign Secretary. Mr..
Eiadstone's name, ESQ honored BY its wear
er's exposure of the horrible atrocities and
tedious outcheries perpeuated by that sane
tuned villain, the King of Naples, does not
appear In the new Ministry, much to our
regret.
The absence of the names of the Duke Of
Wellington, Lord Lyndhurst, and some
other veterans, viii be remarked with a
pahg by British Conservatives. They will
doubtless give the new Cabinet q cordial
support, but Age has claims on them more
imperative than those Of Power.
Tn the whole, our impression is that the
