Made instantaneously with boiling water, a teaspoonful to a Breakfast Cup, costing less than a halfpenny.

COCOATINA A LA VANILLE is the most delicate, digestible, cheapest Manilla Chocolate, and may be taken when richer chocolate is prohibited.

STEPHENS' SCARLET INK FOR STEEL PENS.

This new Ink supplies the demand continually made but never before met, for a Red Ink which is uninjured by Steel or other Metallic Pens. Steel Pens left in this ink for months do not impair the beauty of its colour, nor are the Pens in the least corroded by it. The existing Red Inks rapidly destroy Steel Pens, and lose their red colour if used with other than Gold or Quill Pens. This new colour is a very rich scarlet red of great beauty.

LONDON, JULY 8, 1882.

FRIDAY is the last day on which the Court of Appeal sits at Westminster before the Long Vacation. On Saturday the

court will not sit either at Lincoln's-inn or at Westminster.

the Michaelmas Sittings, there is very little doubt that nine or ten courts will be ready for use by that time, but it is doubted in some quarters whether all of them can be completed by that date. It is understood that the grand opening ceremony, which it was hoped would be accompanied by the presence of her Majesty, has been abandoned. The usual procession of judges, which hitherto has taken place at Westminster Hall, may be anticipated, and nothing more.

THE LORD CHANCELLOR, on the second reading of the JudiTHE FREQUENCY and rapidity with which causes in the Chan-cature Bill, explained that the provisions as to judges of the cery Division are now transferred from one judge to another must High Court sitting in the Court of Appeal "would not introbe extremely puzzling to practitioners. If the practice is conan element of constant strength into the Court of tinued it will be almost as difficult for a practitioner in the Appeal, but would provide for emergencies, such as the Chancery Division to find out before what judge his cause is illness of individual members of the court.' We are glad to know standing at a given time as it recently was to know in what court this, but if this is the object of the provision it ought to be expressed in the Bill, the power to request the attendance of judges of the High Court being limited to the illness or unavoidable absence of a judge of the Court of Appeal. And may we again draw attention to the singular phraseology of clause 2 ? This clause is apparently intended to "introduce an element of "constant strength" than clause 4, and it is very desirable that it should be so expressed as to raise no doubt as to the nature of the "strength" intended to be added. As it stands at present the clause is as full of doubt as if it were a section of the Conveyancing Act, 1881. Any person who "has held" the office of judge of the High Court is to be competent, if he consents to do so, to sit in the Court of Appeal. A person holding the office of judge of the High Court may be said to have also held it. Then, again, the "person" who attends the sittings of the Court of Appeal is, "during such attendance," to "have all the jurisdiction and powers of a judge of the said court, but he shall not otherwise be deemed to be a judge of the said court." That is say, as regards his attendance. What can be the "otherwise" in which he is jurisdiction and power, he is to be a judge of the court during not to be deemed a judge of the court during his attendance? The clause subsequently provides that the "person" is, "if a peer or privy councillor," to " rank among the judges of the said court."

WE ARE ENABLED to state that an important step is in contemplation with a view to relieving the block of cases in the Chancery Division. For reasons well known to the profession it has become a common practice to commence in that Division many actions of the kind known as common law actions. It is intended to transfer to the Queen's Bench Division, as from the commencement of the next Michaelmas Sittings, all actions commenced in the Chancery Division which are not of the description, by the 34th section of the Judicature Act, 1873, specially assigned to that Division.

THE MODE in which this important step will be carried out is, we believe, still under discussion. It is presumed that the contemplated transfer will be under the 36th section of the Judicature Act of 1873, and under ord. 51, r. 2, of the Rules of the Supreme Court. The 36th section provides that any cause or matter may "at any time and at any stage, and either with or without application, be transferred by such authority and in such manner as the Rules of Court may direct from one Division to another," and the rule says that the transfer may be made by an order made by the court or any judge of the Division to which the action is assigned, but with the consent of the President of the Division to which the action is transferred. There is, therefore, full power to make the proposed transfer if the Lord Chief Justice consents. The selection of the causes to be transferred will obviously require great discrimination, and it is to be hoped that provision will be made that suitors shall not be put to any expense of re-transfer in any cause which, for any reason whatever, the court may find it necessary to re-transfer.

IT WAS ANNOUNCED in the House of Commons on Monday night that the courts in the building of the Royal Courts of Justice will be opened on the 2nd of November next, and that the clock will be placed in the tower before that time. The promise made in the spring of 1881, that the clock would be completed during the summer of that year, has hitherto remained unperformed, and the public had better not expect too much from this last utterance. As regards the opening, which is to take place on the first day of

IT IS A COMMON HABIT of judges, when, as sometimes happens in the course of a litigation, the original subject-matter of dispute has disappeared or become of no importance, to say that the only question between the parties has become a mere matter of costs, and, without exactly declining to hear the case on that ground, to put such pressure on the parties as to compel them to make some arrangement between themselves as to the costs, or to be content to bear each his own costs. Any one frequenting the courts knows that what we refer to is a matter of constant occurrence. We venture to think that this is often a mistake. There is, perhaps, a natural reluctance to decide questions no longer substantially in dispute between the parties for the mere purpose of determining the incidental question of costs. All English judges dislike deciding questions not really at issue, and when a question is not directly in issue, but merely for an incidental purpose, something of the same feeling is unconsciously experienced. And, again, there is, we fancy, some sort of idea that, by the course of proceeding we allude to, the practice of running up costs unnecessarily is discouraged. It seems to us, on the contrary, when the substance of the thing is considered, very doubtful whether the balance of justice and advantage is not in favour of deciding the questions that the parties seek to have decided even though only costs depend upon them. A litigant, to whom the question after all is generally one of money, naturally fails to appreciate the distinction between £100 debt or damages and £100 costs. And, again, in many of these cases there is a very important moral

element concerned. Sometimes both parties or their solicitors are somewhat to blame, and have been in some respects unreasonable and litigious, but very often the blame is altogether, or chiefly, on one side. In such cases it is very hard for the reasonable and blameless litigant to be left without remedy because it is a "mere question of costs," and to have to pay his own costs of proceedings in which his opponent has conducted himself in an unreasonable, litigious, or vexatious manner. It seems to us that justice is often interested in having questions fought out, though merely the costs depend upon them.

IF A MAN DIES of injuries received by being run over through the negligence of a railway company's servants at a level crossing, his widow cannot recover for the loss caused to his estate by the medical expenses incurred between the injury and the death, whereas, if he had been a passenger, and had received injuries resulting in death, she would have been able to recover for a similar loss to the estate." Such is the result of the authorities on the curious point first mooted in Bradshaw v. Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Company (L. R. 10 C. P. 180), as explained in the recent case of Pulling v. Great Eastern Railway Company (L. R. 9 Q. B. D. 110) by DENMAN, J., who, with GROVE, J., decided Bradshaw's case, in which it was held that the widow of a passenAs is pointed out in the judgments, ger was entitled to recover. Bradshaw's case proceeded on the ground that the action was for a breach of contract to carry safely, so that the maxim actio personalis moritur cum personá could not apply; and to the same effect are dicta in the older cases of Knights v. Quarles (2 B. & B. 102) and Alton v. Midland Railway Company (34 L. J. C. P. 292). But there is no breach of contract, but a breach of duty merely, or, in legal phraseology, a tort, in a case where any member of the public, not being a passenger, is injured by negligence at a level crossing; and, as is observed by DENMAN, J., none of the authorities go so far as to say that where the cause of action is in substance an injury to the person, the personal representative can maintain an action merely because the person so injured incurred in his lifetime some expenditure of money in consequence of the personal injury." The distinction is probably sound in law, if somewhat artificial and obscure, and it is of especial consequence to bear it in mind, as the ruling in Bradshaw's case was questioned in Leggott v. Great Northern Railway Company (L. R. 1 Q. B. D. 599) by MELLOR and QUAIN, JJ. Independently of authority, we agree with GROVE, J., that, whether the action be for breach of contract or duty, it is very hard to see why the damage to the estate, which would be clearly recoverable if the injured party lived, should be the less recoverable in case of his death.

WE OBSERVE with satisfaction that Mr. Justice FRY has this week, in a case of Elliot v. Langston, set rigorous bounds to the doctrine of the validity of verbal contracts collateral to written leases. In the case which set the doctrine afoot (Morgan v. Griffith, L. R. 6 Ex. 70) the decision was based on the fact that the plaintiff would not have signed the lease unless the verbal collateral promise had been given. But in Erskine v. Adeane (21 W. R. 802, L. R. 8 Ch. 756) Lord Justice JAMES gave a much wider scope to the rule. He said that, "While there was an agreement going on for a lease which was to contain certain stipulations only, a promise was made, or a representation which amounted to a promise, by [the landlord] that the game of which the tenant was then complaining should be so dealt with as not to amount to a serious nuisance to the tenant"-and this promise the court held to be valid. It would be very dangerous to allow any promise or representation made during the negotiations for a lease to constitute a collateral verbal contract. In order to constitute such a contract there ought to be a promise on the strength of which the tenant signed the lease, and without which he would not have signed it. And, as Mr. Justice FRY (who was counsel for the landlord in Erskine v. Adeane) has pointed out in the recent case, the evidence of this promise, and that it was the condition of the lessee's signing the lease, ought to be very clear, for there is a strong presumption that the parties intended the whole of the agreement to be contained in the written document, and that whatever else might be intended to be done

66

should be left to honour and not be binding." We venture to think that it is matter for great regret that this should only be a presumption, for there can be little doubt that it expresses the true state of the case in almost every instance. The lengths to which the doctrine of collateral agreements might be pushed are illustrated in the recent case, where one of the verbal representaions alleged by the plaintiff to constitute an agreement collateral to a lease of offices was that "a housekeeper lived in the back kitchen who had no children," whereas it appeared that the housekeeper had a husband and children, and lived partly in the back kitchen and partly on the ground floor. If the recent action had succeeded we should have had applications to set aside leases of offices on the ground of collateral agreements by the lessor as to the housekeeper's temper, temperance, and tidiness.

IT WAS STATED in a case of Truninger v. Keene, before the Court of Appeal on Monday (which will be found reported elsewhere), that it is not an uncommon practice for the solicitor of a party who has issued a writ of elegit, instead of delivering it in due course at the office of the under-sheriff in order that a warrant to levy may be issued to the sheriff's officer, to deliver the writ to a sheriff's officer in order that he may obtain the warrant, "a small fee being paid to him for the purpose; " and it was stated that "some advantage is supposed to be derived from thus securing the personal attention of the officer." We know nothing of the case before the court, but we may point out that if this practice has become common, the benefit supposed to accrue from it is likely to disappear. So long as the "small fee" was an exceptional thing, it might secure "personal attention," but when it is the common practice, special personal attention is likely to become less vigilant. It would seem that in the recent case the fee did not prove very efficacious in securing attention, and the decision in the case shows that if the writ is delivered by the execution creditor or his solicitor to a clerk of the sheriff's officer, the creditor cannot (in the absence of proof of direct authority from the officer to his clerk to receive such writs) sue the sheriff's officer for negli gence in not procuring the warrant in time.

IT IS SATISFACTORY to learn from the report of the Council of the Incorporated Law Society that they have prepared an amendment, to be moved by Mr. GREGORY, M.P., to the clause in the Conveyancing Bill which provides for the abolition of the acknowledgment of deeds by married women. The amendment provides that one commissioner, not interested in the matter, should be sufficient, instead of two as at present required, and that no other certificate of acknowledgment should be necessary than a memorandum indorsed on the deed, signed by the commissioner, to the effect of the present certificate, and that no affidavit should be required. This seems to meet the requirements of the case very fairly.
