From The Boston Courier.
The entcrprising publishers have here presented
to the legal profession, as we judge, long felt
desidsraitDn-a prompt, cheap, and comprehensive
series Of reports Of all the decisions OF all the Eng
Iish courts. The series commences with the cases
of the November term, 1850; and we observe in the
first number decisions pronounced In Westminster
Hall on the 30th January, lS5l This 10 unparal-
leed 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 ne
executed on very useful plan, referring not only
to the and page of the volume, but containing
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 six large volumes, for the remark
ably low price Of $40 per anhuni. We trust both
editors aud publishers will receive ample rcmuner-
alton for the service they are here doing the legal
profession.
Such publication, think, cannot fail to be
useful Ia the profession and profitable to the pub

GODEY'S LADY'S BOOK FOR 1852.
Increase OF Reading Matters!

TINE LADY'S BOOK for the ensuing year will
Il 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-"toiling after him in vain''-are suf
cient to attest his brilliant success. The prompt
with which every new idea that he suggests is
adopted by others is sufficient reason for his not
being very explicit and exact in his promises of
what is yet to come He does not wish to lay out
plans for others to follow 1t lie 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 Lady's Book and Fami-
ly Magazine, will be introduced The useful and
the elegant will always be kept in view.

illusions of the master minds of Literature. II is

Godey's Lady's Book for January. 1852, will con-
tain in addition to the beautiful and numerous
engravings-htree 9f iDhich are colored-an add
tonal quantity Of reading by American authors
There Is question about the fact, and the tens OF
thousands Of notices that we have from the con-
temporary prcss will establish it, that it is the most
mag fcent periodical in the ,Dorid!
The publisher will give twelve numbers for 1852
that the London Arts Union would be proud Of,
and their price is ten dollars year.
il must be observed that the LApY's Book caters
TO the taste Of the American Ladies. IL furnishes
them with every thing that can interest "A Lady
