This little volume will prove n ore
of a revelation to the innocent No
lie than to the gentlemen of the
legal fraternity. The latter know
how they are given TO amHse ment
and fun, TO fro les and fo0lishnes>,
to poetry and rhyme, snd to the
brighter and lighter things Of life
generally; while the uninitiaied and
aweSstricken multitude regard law
yers as deIv.ng only in sheep-bourd
volumes, and scheming how they
can make others uncomfortable
without thought 'of their own en-
joyment. Mr.. Croke has collected
thee hundred pages CT law songss
that is to say, Of songs by lawyers
and relating TO law; and they en-
brace all grades Of the profession,
every branch of the Practice, and al
classes of iterature-good, bad, in
d fferent. grave, gay and ridiculous.
The collection will be enjoy ed both
in and out of the profession.
