Lord Chief Justice of Ireland, the Master of the Rolls, and the president for the time being of the Incorporated Law Society, or any three of them, the Lord Chancellor being one, may from time to time make any such General Order as to them seems fit for prescribing and regulating the remuneration of solicitors in respect of business connected with sales, purchases, leases, mortgages, settlements, and other matters of conveyancing, and in respect of other business not being business in any action, or transacted in any Court, or in the Chambers of any Judge or Master, and not being otherwise contentious business, and may revoke or alter any such Order.

3. Communication to Incorporated Law Society.] One month at least before any such General Order shall be made, the Lord Chancellor shall cause a copy of the regulations and provisions proposed to be embodied therein to be communicated in writing to the Council of the Incorporated Law Society, who shall be at liberty to submit such observations and suggestions in writing as they may think fit to offer thereon; and the Lord Chancellor, and the other persons hereby authorised to make such Order, shall take into consideration any such observations or suggestions which may be submitted to them by the said Council within one month from the day on which such communication to the said Council shall have been made as aforesaid, and, after duly considering the same, may make such Order, either in the form or to the effect originally communicated to the said Council, or with such alterations, additions, or amendments, as to them may seem fit.

4. Principles of remuneration.] Any General Order under this Act may, as regards the mode of remuneration, prescribe that it shall be according to a scale of rates of commission or per-centage, varying or not in different classes of business, or by a gross sum, or by a fixed sum for each document prepared or perused, without any regard to length, or in any other mode, or partly in one mode and partly in another, or others, and may, as regards the amount of the remuneration, regulate the same with reference to all or any of the following, among other considerations; (namely,)

The position of the party for whom the solicitor is concerned in any business, that is, whether as vendor or as purchaser, lessor or lessee, mortgagor or mortgagee' and the like:

The place, district, and circumstances at or in which the business or part thereof is transacted:

The amount of the capital money or of the rent to which the business relates:

The skill, labour, and responsibility involved therein on the part of the solicitor:

The number and importance of the documents prepared or perused, without regard to length:

The average or ordinary remuneration obtained by solicitors in like business at the passing of this Act.

business, for the remuneration of the solicitor, to such amount and in such manner as the solicitor and the client think fit, either by a gross sum, or by commission or per centage, or by salary, or otherwise; and it shall be competent for the solicitor to accept from the client, and for the client to give to the solicitor, remuneration accordingly.

(2.) The agreement shall be in writing, signed by the person to be bound thereby or by his agent in that behalf.

think fit, be made on the terms that the amount of the re(3.) The agreement may, if the solicitor and the client muneration therein stipulated for either shall include or shall not include all or any disbursements made by the solicitor in respect of searches, plans, travelling, stamps, fees, or other matters.

(4.) The agreement may be sued and recovered on or impeached and set aside in the like manner and on the like grounds as an agreement not relating to the remuneration of a solicitor; and if, under any order for taxation of costs, such agreement being relied upon by the solicitor shall be objected to by the client as unfair or unreasonable, the taxing master or officer of the Court may inquire into the facts, and certify the same to the Court; and if, upon such certificate, it shall appear to the Court or judge that just cause has been shown either for cancelling the agreement, or for reducing the amount payable under the same, the Court or judge shall have power to order such cancellation or reduction, and to give all such directions necessary or proper for the purpose of carrying such order into effect, or otherwise consequential thereon, as to the Court or judge may seem fit.

9. Restriction on Solicitors Act, 1870-33 & 34 Vict. c. 28.] The Attorneys and Solicitors' Act, 1870, shall not apply to any business to which this Act relates.

THE STATEMENT which has appeared to the effect that the branch of the Bank of England shortly to be opened in the Royal Courts of Justice is to be attached to the Chancery Pay Office needs some explanation. Hitherto it has been necessary for any person required to pay money into court to travel into the City and pay the money in the Chancery Office at the Bank. In future this inconvenience will be obviated by the establishment of a branch of the Bank in a room adjoining the Chancery Pay Office. Beyond this there will be no change in the relation which has hitherto existed between the Chancery Pay Office and the Bank of England.

THE INTENTION of Lord Justice BRAMWELL to retire before the commencement of the next sittings has long been known, but the regret occasioned by the announcement of the accomplishment of this intention will not be less keen. It is superfluous to speak to lawyers of the many eminent qualities of the Lord Justice; it is

sufficient to say that during the twenty years of his puisne judgeship he gained the admiration and esteem of the whole profession. At the time when the new Court of Appeal was constituted he was designated by universal consent as among the members of the bench best fitted for promotion, and his career in the Court of Appeal has fully justified these anticipations.

"THE MAGISTRATES not having received a copy of the Act of Parliament, dismissed the summonses.' These words conclude a report of sundry charges brought before the magistrates at Cardiff against publicans for opening their houses on Sunday contrary to the provisions of the new Sunday Closing Act applicable to Wales. The attention of the authorities should be directed to the circumstance that Acts of Parliament and Orders of Court are frequently made to come into opera tion before those whose duty it is to administer the law or to carry out the regulations of the courts have had brought to their attention, or have been able to obtain, the text of the provisions with which they have to deal, It would be easy to postpone the day of commencement of new statutes and orders of court so as to allow time for the printers to issue copies, and for such copies to be distributed.

THE STATUTE Book of 1881, although not bulky, is marked by a few striking novelties. The Customs and Inland Revenue Act (44 Vict. c. 12) was passed on the 3rd of June, but brought its new probate duties into operation on the 1st of June. Another piece of retrospective legislation is afforded by the 14th section of the Conveyancing and Law of Property Act, providing for relief against forfeiture of leases, which "applies to leases made either before or after the commencement of the Act." A strange feat of draftmanship is performed in the Army Act (44 & 45 Vict. c. 58), which repeals a score or so of sections of the Regulation of the Forces Act (44 & 45 Vict. c. 57), both of these statutes receiving the Royal Assent on the same day, August 27. Lastly, a completely new difficulty of construction is presented by the Sunday Closing (Wales) Act, which, by section 3, "shall commence and come into operation with respect to each division or place in Wales on the day next appointed for the holding of the general annual licensing meeting for that division or place." What is the day next appointed? ask puzzled Welshmen. The Home Secretary answers that "the day next ap. ," and for pointed means the day next appointed,' further information suggests that the requisionists should" consult their legal advisers." It is with the utmost hesitation that we offer any opinion on the crabbed piece of draftmanship which has perplexed the Principality, but we may say that we incline on the whole to think that an appointment of a day for the licensing meeting made before the date of the passing of the Act will bring it into operation if the appointed day falls after that date. If both appointment and appointed day precede that date, the question is so doubtful that, like JACOB SOUNDPOST, we 66 do not. know what to say."

AFTER A SOMEWHAT LENGTHENED period of incubation the Manchester Tribunal of Arbitration has broken the shell and uttered a feeble crow. The bantling, it is confessed, is still very immature. It has been thought best to institute, in the first instance, as little regula
