Mr. EDWARD J. TRUSTRAM, of Messrs. Hal e, Trustram, & Co., of 61, Cheapside, E C., has been appointed a Commissioner for Oaths. Mr. Trustram is the Returning Officer for Parliamentary Purposes of the borough of Deptford and Vestry Clerk of the City Parishes of St. Maryle-Bow and St. Pancras, Soper-lane. The following appointments have been made by the Council of Legal Education for the year ending the 10th of January, 1899: Constitutional Law (English and Colonial) and Legal History-Reader, A. T.

GENERAL. either country, equality of treatment of all creditors. It was stated that up to the present only a formal acknowledgment of the letter had been received. 46 At Bristol, on the 29th ult., before Mr. Justice Hawkins, says the Times, Roger O'More was brought up for sentence. On the 27th ult. the prisoner pleaded guilty" to uttering counterfeit coin. His lordship said the prisoner had pleaded guilty to uttering counterfeit coin by passing a gilded shilling as a sovereign and two gilded sixpences as half-sovereigns. It was the prisoner's first fraud of this description, but he had constantly been convicted ever since 1879. The judge read out a list of convictions, which included five years' penal servitude for demanding money with menaces, passed on the prisoner at the Gloucester Assizes in 1890. After this the judge said he was shocked to find that the prisoner was brought up in February, 1896, before the Dursley Petty Sessions on six charges of indecent conduct. Whether the prisoner pleaded guilty to these charges or was convicted by the magistrates after hearing the evidence against him his lordship gaid he did not know, but he was convicted. Then followed. the shocking and unaccountable fact that the prisoner was sentenced to three months' hard labour for each of these offences, the scutences being; ordered to be consecutive, so that the prisoner had no less than eighteen months' hard labour awarded him by a bench of magistrates sitting at petty sessions. The judge said he never had heard, and he hoped he never should hear again, of such a course being taken by magistrates. In his opinion magistrates had no power to pass such a cumulative sentence, and. he was quite sure that no judge of assize would ever adopt such a course as the magistrates had taken in this case. WARNING TO INTENDING HOUSE PURCHASERS AND LESSEES.-Before pur-chasing or renting a house, have the Sanitary Arrangements thoroughly Examined, Tested, and Reported Upon by an Expert from Messrs. Carter Bros., 65, Victoria-street, Westminster. Fee quoted on receipt of full Mr. Henry Terrell, QC., one of the newly-created Queen's Counsel, has particulars. (Established 21 years.)-[ADVT.] elected to take his seat and practise in Mr. Justice North's court. The treasurer, Mr. Gates, Q.C., and the benchers of the Inner Temple on Tuesday entertained over 300 members of that inn at a smoking concert in their hall. It is stated that Sir Frank Lockwood, Q.C., M.P., who has been confined to his house through indisposition for some time past, is now much better. It is stated that Mr. Justice Hawkins sat in court at the Bristol Assizes on Monday last from 10 o'clock in the morning until 11 o'clock at night, which may be considered a tolerably good day's work for a man of over eighty years of age. Mr. S. Pope, Q.C., is expected to presido at the dinner to be given by the Northern Circuit to Mr. Justice Bigham at the Hôtel Métropole on Saturday, the 18th of December, in celebration of his recent elevation to the bench. The Lord Chief Justice and Lord Justice Collins are among those who have accepted invitations to be present. The Paris correspondent of the Daily News says that the Paris Court of Appeal has decided that Mlle. Chauvin could not be admitted to take the oath as a member of the Paris bar. It was remarked that her speech was close and sober. The court paid her back in her own coin. I have seldom read a closer judgment. The court does not admit the distinction Mile. Chauvin made between admission to the bar which gives a mercantile value to the licentiate's diploma, and practising at the bar. There is no ground for such a distinction. The court has nothing to do with the kind of practice or morals of barristers. They are subject to the discipline of the Council of the Order, but the court is not a simple office of registration charged to give a visa. It has to see whether the candidate for admission to the bar is duly qualified to take the oath. Now the law makes the legal profession a male one. The legislator who, early in this century restored the order of advocates, entirely took for his model the old organization of the order of advocates by the Parliament of Paris. According to the ancient rules no woman could be admitted to practise as an advocate. Moreover, there is a great affinity between the bar and the bench. Should judges from any cause be unable to sit on the bench members of the bar can take their place. It is impossible to hold that in the actual state of legislation a woman can sit as a judge. The court is not called upon to ray whether it is desirable for women to practise as advocates. concerns the Legislature. That At a meeting of the Council of the Bradford Chamber of Commerce, held on Wednesday, Mr. Henry Sutcliffe presiding, it was stated that a letter relating to the German bankruptcy laws had been forwarded to the Foreign Office. The object of this letter was to draw Lord Salisbury's attention to the provisions of the German bankruptcy law so far as they affect the rights of trustees in English bankruptcies in regard to assets of the bankrupt in Germany. By clause 207 of the German Bankruptcy Statute of February 10, 1877, it is enacted as follows: "If a debtor, on whose estate abroad bankruptcy proceedings have been opened, has assets in the country (ie., in Germany) compulsory execution is permitted on the said inland assets." That is to say, the German law does not recognize any title to German assets on the part of a trustee in an English bankruptcy. Consequently, any creditor of an English bankrupt has, notwithstanding the bankruptcy, a right to seize the debtor's German assets in satisfaction of his debt. The chamber urged that, in the interests of English creditors and of the mutual trade of the two countries, steps should be taken with a view to obtaining a decree of the German Chancellor modifying the German law, thus securing, in a bankruptcy in Date.

THERE IS no rule without an exception, and the rule giving to counsel exclusive right of audience in the High Court found its Mortgages Guaranteed on Licensed Properties promptly, without exception last week in a case tried before BRUCE, J., at the Liverpool Assizes. On the second day of the hearing both counsel for the defendants were absent, the leader engaged in the Crown Court and the junior in London, and under these circumstances the judge gave the defendants' solicitor leave to appear for the purpose of cross-examining the plaintiffs' witnesses, and afterwards, by further leave, he addressed the jury. The leave was given after the solicitor had explained that he had been assured of the leader's presence. Possibly incidents of this kind have occurred before, but we are not aware of a precedent for the course adopted by the judge. Some years ago we believe a solicitor, on failure of both his counsel, conducted his case in Court of Appeal No. 1 and won it, but there he was himself the party and so had a right of audience. Whether, however, there is a precedent or not, the judge could not, without hardship to the defendants, have deprived them of the only legal assistance that was available. WITH RESPECT to the cases of Reg. v. Lynch and Reg. v. Jones, reported in last week's issue, a doubt arises as to whether in either case, but particularly in the case of Reg. v. Jones, the decision can be regarded as the decision of a properly-constituted court for the consideration of Crown Cases Reserved. The jurisdiction to decide questions of law arising in criminal trials established by the Act 11 & 12 Vict. c. 78 was vested in the judges of the High Court by section 47 of the Judicature Act, 1873. By section 15 of the Judicature Act, 1881, that jurisdiction may be exercised by any five or more of such judges; provided that the Lord Chief Justice of England shall always be one of such judges," unless he is prevented from being present by illness or otherwise. Now Reg. v. Lynch was argued last summer before the Lord Chief Justice, POLLOCK, B., and three other judges. Mellor, The Right Hon.
