Fourth Edition, with very considerable Alterations and Additions; incorporating the Statutes and Reported Cases to the time of Publication.

By G. M. DOWDESWELL AND J. G. MALCOLM, ESQRS.,

BARRISTERS-AT-LAW.

"Fortunately for the Profession, the new edition has been intrusted to gentlemen, of whom one is well known, not only as a ripe and accomplished lawyer, (doctrinâ malidus,) but as a judicious editor, knowing how to withhold as well as how to apply his hand. Amid the present plague of reports, mere industry is not sufficient to qualify even a second-rate editor.

"It is evident that the editors have not been blinded by their respect for the author, but have altered, corrected, and amended, wherever they have seen occasion. Such a course could not be pursued safely upon a small stock of learning or of judgment; and, in our opinion, it has been pursued, not only with safety, but with manifest advantage to the book; so that the fourth edition of Starkie is to the existing law, what the first edition was to the law in 1824.

"We wish we had some means of identifying Mr. Malcolm's portions of the work. As it is, being hitherto unknown in authorship, he must be content with the praise of having borne a part where all was good."-JURIST, 18th December, 1852.

"It is also the only work of which a new edition has been brought out at such a time as to render it possible that it should apply to practice, with any degree of consideration and accuracy, the modern changes in the law.

"We think the editors will have gone far towards restoring the admirable work of Mr. Starkie to its original character of the best work on the Law of Evidence, which has yet been produced."-LEGAL OBSERVER, Nov. 27, 1852.

"We remark, as a matter that first engages attention, and which is by no means inconsiderable in the practical usefulness of a book, that the facilities both of reading and reference are preserved, and even increased. The additions to the text appear to be 76 pages. And the table of cases has an addition of five* pages-an apparently small increase, but importantly so when it shows that nearly 600+ further cases have been worked into the references. These matters will sufficiently show that very considerable attention has been bestowed upon the present edition, both mechanical and mental.

"In conclusion, we recommend this work to the practitioner as a complete book, and one that will warrant his confidence, and furnish able assistance in all matters relating to the sale and purchase of estates; and we think no better book can be read by students, for the purpose of giving them a condensed view of the subject, and enabling them to see the application of those principles and rules with which a general study of the law has furnished them."-LAW STUDENTS' MAGAZINE, April, 1852.

*The actual increase is upwards of eight pages.

+ The actual additional cases are about 1100.

"The work is short, readable, and very accurate.

With these quotations we

will close our notice of a work which is obviously prepared with great care, and will, we think, become a standard text book."-JURIST, 2nd March, 1851.

"Its plan is well arranged, the cases are carefully collected, the law is clearly expounded, and in every part of the treatise there is a great deal of learning. The style is singularly compact."-LAW TIMES, 8th March, 1851.
