Messrs. LITTLE & BRowN: In the prompt repub
| lication of the English Reports in Law and
Equity" you tender to the profession a most i'm
porta mt service. The first volume of these Reports
includes decided in the House of Lords
Privy Council, Courts of Equity and Common Law,
from and after Michaelmas Term, 1850; also,
"Crown Cases Reserved, and Cases in the Eccle-
siastical and Admiralty Courts" And the second
third, fourth and fifth volumes, which you have re-
published, include the cases decided in the above
courts in 1851.
These Reports, like all other works which pro-
coed from your press, are executed in most sub
stantial manner, and do credit to the enterprise of
the publishers. ! became a subscriber for them as
soon they were found with the booksellers in the
West, and am convinced, that from THEIR CHEAP
NEss AND EXTENT OF MATTER, THEY MUST SUPER
sEpE, AT LEAST IN THIS COUNTRY, ALL OTHER ENG
LIsH REPORTS OF LATE DECISIONS
Very respectfully, your obedient servant.

WAsHINsToN, January 26, 1852.
Messrs. LITTLE & BRowN: think you have laid
the profession under great obligations. in the re,
publication Of the "English Reports in Law and
Equity" in this country.
The low price at which the volumes offered,
will enable the bar generally in this way to fur
nish their Libraries with the current English Re-
ports, of which many of them have heretofore been
deprived. They will thus have a ready access to
the decisions of courts sitting at the fountain
head of the law, whence have been derived, for the
most part the several systems, more or less modi-
fed daily administered by the courts of this coun-
try. And. however modified these systems may
be, it is manifest that these decisions must shed
great light upon the investigation of most of the
cases arising here.
Your plan, also, will furnish the profession in
this country with the cases IMMEDIATELY AFTER
THE PUBLICATION IN ENGLAND, A CONSIDERATIONS
OF THE FIRST IMPORTANCE; for, if the Reports Of
cases decided of any value, the sooner they
are in the hands Of the profession the better. !
sincerely hope your encouragement from the bar
will be commensurate with the merit of the enter
prise.

SAMUEL NELSON.
WAsHINaroN, January 26, 1852.
Messrs. LITTLE & BRowN- Gentlemen: BY your
publication of the English Law and Equity Re-
ports, think an important benefit is conferred on
the legal profession in this country. The fidelity
with which these Reports appear to have been thus

decisions of all the important Courts to a 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

GENTLEMEN: A publication like that in which
