annual general meeting by adding the words "and the five of such ten who have been longest in office shall not be eligible for re-election for twelve months." He referred to a similar motion which had been brought forward in 1873 at a special meeting and carried, but which had been lost at a special meet ng called for the purpose of confirming it, when the council produced an opinion of counsel that it was ultra vires. He could not see how that could be, and contended that the society would gain considerably by the fresh blood which would be brought into the council if his motion were adopted. Mr. MACARTHUR seconded the motion. Mr. FINCH said the motion sought to deprive the members, the electoral body, of their right to elect those gentlemen whom they might feel to be the most efficient members of the council. If they had such a rule they could not have the best men on the council. Many men would not care to take office with a halter round their necks, knowing that after the experience of years required to make a member of the council, instead of getting nearer to the honour of being president, they were to be told they must go. Mr. D. T. MILLER having spoken in favour of the motion, it was put to the meeting and negatived by a large majority. Mr. FINCH introduced a motion, of which he had given notice, requesting the council to "take all such reasonable and proper steps as may be necessary for having restored to the Official Law List the star or asterisk that, from the year 1822 continuously to the year 1881, has distinguished the names of members of the society appearing therein." He observed that had the suggestion for depriving the members of the star come from someone outside the society it would have been looked upon as a piece of vandalism. The council had, no doubt, been actuated by the highest motives, but they had determined no longer to pay the small fee required by the publishers of the Law List, or take what little trouble was necessary in order that the star might be affixed to the names of members as had hitherto been the case. It was true the names of the members appeared in the society's calendar, but the Official Law List was a document of considerable age, and one to which everybody referred who wanted to know anything about a solicitor. The calendar was issued by a private body as far as it was concerned, and could never come into competition with the Law List. This change had been made silently and without any application to the members that their views might be made known. Mr. RUBENSTEIN seconded the motion. He thought the society should acquire the right to print the Official Law List. Mr. WALTERS, in the unavoidable absence of Mr. Lake, the chairman of the finance commi teee, who had been most concerned in the alteration, was afraid he must range himself in opposition to Mr. Finch on this occasion. Mr. Finch had held up the Law List to admiration as a piece of perfection, but he (Mr. Walters) held in bis band a list of the errors of the last Law List in which the asterisk appeared. These errors amounted to no less than 102 amongst the country members of the society, and 82 amongst the London members, making a total of 184. They were omissions of the asterisk in almost every case. That was the result of an accurate list of the members being furnished to the publishers. The publishers, when these errors were pointed out, at first said they had not been furnished with an accurate list. He (Mr. Walters) had seen the very list that was sent to them, which was accurate and complete, and what showed they were in error was the fact that they had never been paid their usual £10 10. for the last publication. The arrangement as to the payment of £10 10s. dated from 1879. Prior to that time the publishers had sent the proof sheets for correction, and very frequently they were sent too late for correction without reprinting, and he thought that on the last occasion it had cost £120 to reprint the proof sheets which were put forward with so many errors. Under these circumstances the arrangement of 1879 was come to ; under it the secretary furnished them with the necessary lis's. When the publication of the calendar was decided upon, the calendar committee came to the conclusion, in view of the great inaccuracy of the Law List in this respect, that the members should appear in the society's own official list. The whole of the Law List was not official; the only official list of members of the society was in the society's calendar. The asterisk in the Law List was simply an arrangement made by the Council with the publishers as tradesmen, and if there was a demand for the asterisk to appear the publishers would find it worth their while to put it in themselves. Why should the society pay the £10 10s. a year, and employ the society's own staff in ineffectually endeavouring to perfect their publication, when they could take it themselves from the society's calendar to print it? The calendar appeared in February, the Law List in April, and the publishers were welcome to every information they could get from the calendar. The calendar was complete informations as regarded everything connected with the society, and the council might perhaps extend it so as to include a list of all solicitors taking out their certificates. It would possess the advantage of the information being given in February instead of waiting till April. There were one or two difficulties in the way of this, but he hoped the council would be able to overcome them. It would not of course be evidenc by Act of Parliament, but in course of time it might become the official calendar of solicitors. Why should it not? The society bad the official custody of the roll of solicitors. They were the registrar of solicitors. Why should not they publish the official list of solicitors? If they restored the asterisk to the Law List they would be rather militating against the possibility of anything of the kind. Suppose the meeting passed a resolution that the asteri-k should be restored, the publishers would see that resolution and say to the council. "Now you have to do this, our price is £500." Mr. Finch should be prepared to tell the society that the publishers would do it on the old terms. The council had put an end to it because they had thought the work was very imper/ectly done, and they thought it better they should have their own official list. The effect of publishing the list in the calendar, he believed, though he could not say positively, had been to largely increase the number of members of the society. The increase in the number of members had been largely augmented, and during the first half of the present year the number had reached 234. It had been suggested that the sense of the general body of members should have been taken on the subject, but he thought that to a certain extent the members of the council must be trusted. The members of the council had no strong views upon the subject of the change, and if the society, as a society, were desirous of having the asterisk restored, the council would, of course, give the measure their best consideration. His own judgment, which he thought was shared in by his colleagues, was that they had better leave it where it was. Mr. PARKER thought it was simply a question of £10 10s., the payment of which he believed the meeting would most heartily authorize. When they wanted to know something of a solicitor with whom they were not acquainted, the first thing they did was to turn to the Law List and see whether he had the asterisk or not; and now Mr. Walters was claiming that they should refer to a book of two years' standing instead of one of forty. The Law L'st was used by everybody, whether members of the profession or not, whilst the calendar only went to the members of the society. Mr. FINCH, in reply, understood that by reason of the action of the council the asterisk could not be restored under a cost of thirty guineas, but they were in the hands of a highly-respectable firm, and they might rely upon their doing it without attempting to extort £500. It could be restored by thirty guineas, and in his opinion it was worth 300 guineas. The motion was carried, with scarcely a dissentient, amidst applause. Mr. KIMBER moved "That, as the tendency of recent and prospective legislation is to extend the jurisdiction of the county courts, the whole question of their practice and procedure be referred to a committee of this society, to consider it and report to the council thereon." He urged that the more the question was investigated the more the public would be opposed to the handing over of any more business to the county courts as at present constituted. Up to a certain figure the county courts had been productive of great public good, but when they had imposed upon them the administration of Admiralty, Equity, and Bankruptcy business, and now the Employers Liability Act, the burden was greater than they could bear. Mr. Ď. T. MILLER seconded the motion. Mr. G. A. CROWDER, as a member of the Legal Procedure Committee, observed that the committee were of opinion that this measure ought to be considered, but very few of the members of the committee had practical acquaintance with county court work, and they thought the subject had better be relegated to another committee, who might be better able to deal with it. They were certainly of opinion that it was a subject which ought to be discussed and settled. Mr. S. DAY would just remind the council that there was a society called the County Court Society, and that would be a good list from which to take the names for the new committee. Mr. KIMBER asked whether that was not a society of officials. Mr. DAY replied in the affirmative, but remarked that because a solicitor was an official he should not be tabooed from exercising his knowledge. Mr. H. E. GRIBBLE thought the present not a very appropriate time to form the committee when there was a chance of extra work being thrown on the county courts. He submitted that it should be postponed until they knew what the result of the new rules would be, and moved an amendment accordingly. Mr. HAYWARD seconded the amendment. Mr. RICHARDSON asked those gentlemen who did not practise in the county courts to abstain from voting on a measure in which they had little or no interest. Those of them who practised in the county courts knew what great need there was for reform. The amendment was negatived, and the motion was then put and carried. A committee was formed of the following gentlemen, with power to add J. E. Fox, Mr. Rabenstein, Mr. E. Kimber, Mr. H. H. Richardson, Mr. to their number:-Mr. F. K. Manton, Mr. Whitehead, Mr. Roberts, Mr. Proudfoot, Mr. J. Mote, and Mr. R. J. Macarthur. Mr. FRANCIS MILLER, looking at the hour which had been reached, by leave withdrew the motion of which he had given notice for the passing of a new bye-law, as follows, "That a general meeting of the society shall be held at such time and place in the month of January or February as the council shall appoint," remarking that he would again bring it forward at the next annual meeting. The following notice of motion in the name of Mr. C. Ford stood on the paper, but upon the CHAIRMAN calling upon Mr. Ford no answer was returned: "That the supplemental report of the Legal Procedure Com. mittee of the society, as appointed by the society on the 18th November, 1881, be printed and circulated among members of the society." Mr. HARGREAVES moved "That the administration of justice requires the abolition of the Long Vacation." He looked upon the Long Vacation as an abuse of justice, and it was a great pity that any civilized country should close the temples of justice, for that was practically what it meant, for three months out of the twelve. Mr. D. J. MILLER seconded the motion. The CHAIRMAN remarked that he would not again sit as president, but he might say for himself that, if the motion were carried, and it were his duty to make any such representation to the Lord Chancellor, he should do it with great alarm. In the first place, he was probably aware of the decision to which the Legal Procedure Committee had come, and any such resolu tion to have any weight ought to be passed at a much larger meeting than the present. Mr. PENNINGTON agreed with the mover of the resolution in much that he had said, but thought he would do mischief if he pressed it. The Legal Procedure Committee had made a report on the subject, which report had been unanimously adopted by the society, and he thought they should wait and see the result of the report before passing any resolution. He therefore ventured to appeal to Mr. Hargreaves to withdraw the motion. Mr. HARGREAVES, by leave, withdrew the motion. The motion for the adoption of the report was then carried unanimously. Mr. HARGREAVES proposed a vote of thanks to the president and council, the secretary, under-secretary, librarian, and the rest of the society's staff for their able conduct of the affairs of the institution during the past year. The motion was carried unanimously. Mr. FINCH proposed, and Mr. RICKMAN seconded, a vote of thanks to the chairman, which was unanimously adopted. The CHAIRMAN briefly returned thanks, and the proceedings terminated. KENT LAW SOCIETY.

It was proposed by Mr. Batchelor, and seconded by the chairman, "that the hour to dine next year be six o'clock." As an amendment, proposed by Mr. Carnell, seconded by Mr. Bassett, "that the hour for dinner be four o'clock." The amendment for dining at four o'clock was negatived. As an amendment, proposed by Mr. Tatham, seconded by Mr. Simp-on, "that the hour of dioner should be seven o'clock." The amendment for dining at seven o'clock was carried. This amendment being put as a substantive resolution was carried unanimously. Mr. Batchelor gave notice of his intention to move at the next meeting that rule 8 should be amended as follows: "The hour of meeting and the hour of dining to be at such hours," &c., to end of rule. Mr. Alfred Thomas Simpson, of Tunbridge Wells, proposed by Mr. Stone, seconded by Mr. Andrew; Mr. George Wilkinson Prall, of Rochester, proposed by Mr. Bassett, seconded by Mr. Bristow; Mr. Frederick Watson Stocker, of Lewisham, proposed by Mr. Bristow, seconded by Mr. Bassett, were severally duly elected members of the society.

The chairman presented to Mr. A. T. Simpson the prize he had obtained under the regulations of the society. Mr. Brennan and Mr. Andrew called attention to the delay in fixing a scale of costs under the Solicitors' Remuneration Act. Mr. Simpson proposed, and Mr. Tatham seconded, "that the committee be instructed to prepare forthwith a memorial from this society to the Lord Chancellor, praying that the scale of remuneration to solicitors be settled as quickly as possible, as the present state of uncertainty on the subject is unjust to the profession; and that the president be authorized to sign the same on behalf of the society, and the saine was carried unanimously. Mr. Edwin Hughes proposed, and Mr. Andrew seconded, "that it be referred to the Special Purposes Committee to take such steps as they may think expedient to procure the admission of the presidents for the time being of the provincial societies upon the Council of the Incorporated Law Society," and the same was carried unanimously.
