Mr. Grove, Q.C., whose name is so closely connected with

the principle known as the " correlation of forces," i. e., the real equivalence of physical, chemical, and vital modes of force, has• been made a puisne judge in the place of Sir Montague Smith, removed to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. Rumour says, we do not know on what authority, that Mr. Grove also is to be translated to the Judicial Committee, but of this there is as yet no proof. He is probably almost the first great scientific man who has sat on the Bench. He is an admirable lawyer, and in patent cases his judgments would have a unique value.
