The Justices' Note•Book. By W. Knox Wigram. Third edition. (Stevens
and Sons.)—Justices' justice, however much it be de- spised, affects every one, and makes advances, like everything else. We are, therefore, very glad to see a third edition of this excel- lent book. Old articles in it have been recast, papers on fresh subjects have been added, and an excellent index has been provided. Even as improved, justice sometimes wears a comic look, as on p. 128, where we learn that, "No person may part with, or cherish, the Colorado beetle alive, in any stage of existence. Penalty for every -offence of omission, or commission, £10; half to the informer."— .Alter the statute of 1882, a new edition of Griffith's Married Women's Property Acts (Stevens and Haynes), was called for. Mr. S. Worthington Bromfield, of the Inner Temple, has made the necessary alterations in this, the fifth, edition.
