PRINCIPLES OF THE LAW OF REAL PROPERTY. Intended as a First Book for the use of Students in Conveyancing. By JOSHUA WILLIAMS, Esq., of Lincoln's Inn, Barrister-at-Law.

"Decidedly superior to any of its predecessors. . . . A Work with which no Common law Student should neglect to provide himself at the outset of his Pupilage."-Warren's Law Studies, pp. 560, 766.

"The want which the Student has felt, of an Elementary Guide to the Law of Real Property as it exists, and as it is practically important at the present day, Mr. Williams (who was already favourably known to the Profession by an edition of Watkins's Treatise on Descents, published in 1837) has endeavoured to supply by his present work, and, we think, with eminent success... He has developed his plan with great clearness of method, in a lively and agreeable style."-Jurist.

....

"In many important respects, a decided improvement upon its predecessors; and when the names of some of these are remembered, we think, that, in expressing this opinion, we are passing no slight praise upon Mr. Williams's book."-Law Magazine,

"Of considerable use and merit..... It appears to us written in a pleasing and agreeable style, and well calculated to make a favourable impression on the Student."-Law Review.

FACTORS AND BROKERS.

A TREATISE on the Laws relating to FACTORS and BROKERS; with an Appendix of Statutes, Rules, Orders, and Regulations, &c. By JOHN A.. RUSSELL, B.A., of Gray's Inn, Barrister-at-Law.

Critical Notices of the Work.

"This is a well-executed and useful Treatise upon an important branch of commercial law, and will be found of great service to mercantile men, as well as to our own profession. Without trusting implicitly to its pages, or dispensing in cases of difficulty with the assistance of a professional adviser, there must be occasions when the merchant, factor, or broker will find advantage in being able to refer to such a work. The principal portion of it is devoted to the consideration of the duties and powers of factors and brokers, and their rights and liabilities, both with respect to their principals and to third persons; and this is written in a clear and intelligible manner, and reflects much credit upon the author."-The Jurist, No. 369.

"It is singularly free from technicalities and recondite meanings-a recommendation of no ordinary importance to the unprofessional reader, while the general execution of the work, and the easily-understood solution of many doubtful questions of every-day occurrence, shew the intense labour and professional knowledge bestowed on the subject by its author. In a town like Liverpool, celebrated for the magnitude and weight of its business transactions, where disputes must continually arise, where factors and brokers form an increasingly numerous and responsible part of the community, and where the interests of so many are affected by their contracts, this work must be regarded as an acquisition exceedingly useful and acceptable. We therefore give it our cordial recommendation."-Liverpool Mercury, No. 1719.

"An exceedingly useful Treatise. The subject is of vast importance in itself, having repeatedly occupied the attention of the Legislature; and mercantile men in particular will find it advantageous to become familiar with the pages of such a work, seeing that their interests are so intimately affected by the laws here brought under consideration. The Treatise consists of Four Parts; the first of which is devoted to the consideration of the nature of the employment of factors and brokers, of the persons who are qualified to fill those offices, and of the modes in which they may be appointed; the second, of their duties and powers; the third, of their rights and liabilities; and the fourth, of the means by which the relation subsisting between them and the principal may be dissolved. The author's style throughout is clear, concise, and intelligent. A work of this nature was much needed, particularly after the Factors Act of 1842 came into operation; and this Treatise appears to present strong claims to having supplied that want in a creditable and satisfactory manner. The subject is logically analysed and copiously discussed; and the doctrines and opinions are fortified by a host of authorities, which shew at once the judgment and discrimination of the author, and the amount of minute and laborious research he has brought to bear on its elucidation."— Newcastle Courant, No. 8870.

"We think it highly creditable to the professional zeal and ability of the author, and likely to prove eminently useful to the large class of persons affected by, or otherwise interested in, the important commercial law of which it treats. It is a work which could only be produced after years of application and labour, and we trust the reward of the author will be commensurate with the ability and time expended on it. The Treatise, with its appendix and index, extends to 370 pages."-Glasgow Citizen, No. 64. A.2

A TREATISE on PRESUMPTIONS of LAW and FACT; with the Theory and Rules of Presumptive or Circumstantial Proof in Criminal Cases. By W. M. BEST, A.M., LL.B., of Gray's Inn, Barrister-at-Law.

"Mr. BEST's work is an useful and able summary of the Principles of Presumptive Proof as they are applied in English courts of justice. He has, moreover, illustrated his arguments by many very apposite citations from the writings of the civilians and from the Roman law. His work displays abundant proof of no common research, as well as of a mind thoroughly imbued with the importance of his subject, and anxious to extricate the real principles of the Law of Evidence from the mass of heterogeneous matter under which they are too often buried."-The Law Magazine, or Quarterly Review for December, 1844.
