THE Law of Husband and Wife, by a Solicitor, is an awful work. If a man wants to put awaY his wife, let him read this book : if a woma is discontented with her husband, and is tool; ing elsewhere, the means are here. If there IS property and it should unhappily be the cause of dissension, it may here be seen how it maY he made matter of litigation : if a husband should wish to imprison his wife, this book will teach him bow far he has the law on his sidc and if she should wish to do something ver wrong in return, the hook has all kinds 0, cases in point—and out of point. In short, this work is the Morbid Anatomy of Marriage:. when the breath that animated the sacred connexion is gone, and the feelings which led to its union are extinct, then haul the bodY on to the dissecting-board,—the Law of llto. band and Wife is the Connubial Anatomists Manual.
