Mr. Hargrave says : " It is with great pleasure that we cite Mr, Doug- las' work, as it affords the opportunity of congratulating the student on the accession of a collection of excellent Reports on the law of parlia- mentary election, accompanied with an instructive historical preface, and very judicious annotations, and is the only work of the kind except one lately published from lIr. Glanvill's manuscript; and that they are both particularly valuable on account of their tendency to diffuse the know- ledge of a branch of law which before was too much confined to the narrow circle of the few favorites in possession of the practice." 3 Co.
