THE CONVERSATIONAL Library.

IL CONGRESSIONAL
The mass of books has accumulated SO
rapidly that there is hardly room to move
about among the treasures of the Con-
gressional Library, and the greater part
of the more than 300. 600 volumes in the
collection are useless. The neglect Of
Congress to provide for the erection Of a
suitable structure for the preservation Of
the library is much to be regretted, and
the demand will be general for the APP
preparation of money for the purpose
soon after the beginning of the next SEES.
sion. While condemning the wasteful
appropriation of money from the Treasury
for many public buildings. says an East
ern journal, the people arc by no means
unwilling to pay whatever may be neces-
sary to provide such structures as are
really needed, and the opinion is general
that the building to be erected for the
Congressional Library should be planned
to accommodate the grandest library in
the world. There will be no disapproba-
ton of an appropriation for q fireproof
structure of proper dimensions and
architectural excellence, if only the work
is entrusted to men OF integrity and
ability. Intelligent persons recognize
the fact that the Congressional Library
can and should be made the greatest in
stitution of its kind ON the globe.

that she had c~ontrabsnd goods on board,

refusing to do so they obliged him to re-
turn with the vessel to this port and pro-
cure from the Mexican Consul q certificate
that there wal NO c~ontraband goods on

Mr.. Keely has completed m invention
which will supersede the use Of heated

CHIEF JUsrlCE COLERlDeE.


Lord Chief Justice Coleridge Of En-
gland is about to visit the United States
in response to an invitation from the bar
Of this country. In anticipation of his
arrival the New York Herald says very
sptly:
In meeting for the first time the lead
ing representatives of the American
Bench and Bar, Lord Chief Justice Cole
ridge will not lind himself . stranger,
nor among strangers. Not only has his
general fame as an advocate, orator,
iurist and judge preceded him to this
country, but he will everywhere meet
professional c~o-laborers whose business it
has been to study his judicial opinions,
aud whose labors ON the bench or achieve
ments at the bar have in turn made their
names familiar to him. Hence the greet
ing which will be extended to him at
every point by his professional brethren
will be the cordial welcome of sincere in.
tcrest and esteem rather than the merely
formal reception due the Lord Chief
Justice of England.
This fact 10 not surprising when it is
considered how much there is common
in the study, practice and judicial inter.
probation Of the law in the United States
and in England. In every American Law
school the English text writers and com,
mentators--the latest ~ we'll a. the
earliest-are . prominent and essen
tial feature Of the course Of study, while
no American law library, public or pri.
vate, is considered complete without the
English reports and treatises. The
names not only Of the great early author
ities-such as Bacon, Coke, Hale and
Blackstone-but also of all the latel
standard writers-Phillipps, Starkie, Ad
Olson. Russell, Benjamin. Byles, Jar
mon, Stephen, etc.-are as familiar I,
the legal profession in this country as il
England, while the opinions Of on
Courts as well as the briefs of our law
yers bristle with citations Of English de
~cisions. For obvious reasons American
authorities are not 30 commonly studiet
or quoted in England A. English authori
ties are in this country. But while thi'
is true it is also true that the. names o
Kent, Story, Greenleaf, Parsons, Wash
burn, Wheaton, Redfield, Sedgwick
Cooley, Bishop. Wharton, etc., are wei
known and their works extensively uset
in England; while the opinions Of tn
American Judges, Federal and State. ar
often cited with approval by the Englisl
Courts.
