It is interesting to glance over the '"Index to Authors of Articles" in JoNF.s's Indicx to Legal Periodical.s, and note the names therein gathered. Irving Browne, the talented editor of the " Albany Law Journal," easily leads the list as the author of 228 articles. The late Judge Isaac F. Redfield comes second with 113. Among those credited with over fifty articles are Hon. Edmund H. Bennett, Robert Desty, Prof. M. D. Ewell, George Harris, James M. Kerr, John D. Lawson, W. W. Thornton, Hon. Seymour D. Thompson, and Dr. Francis Whar- ton. Other authors who have been industrious contributors are O. W. Aldrich, Sheldon Amos, M. M. Bigelow, Joel P. Bishop, H. C. Black, O. F. Bump, William Archer Gocke, Hon. William F. Cooper, E W. Cox, Hon. John F. Dillon, Prof. Theodore W. Dwight, David Dudley Field, Leonard A. Jones, Adelbert Hainilton, Hon. O. W. Holmes, Jr., Hon. Samuel F. Miller, James T. Mitchell, the two IVIurfrees, Hon. James O. Peirce, Frederic Pollock, Flenry Wade Rogers, James H. Stewart, Joseph Story, and Hon. Emory Washburn. Other well-known legal authors and lawyers like the Alibotts (Austin and B. V.), J. P Benjamin, W. M. Best, R. H. Dana, A. V. Dicey, W. G. Hammond, F. F. Heard, E. O. Keasbey, N. C. Moak, Theophilus Parsons, the Biddies and Rawles of Philadelphia, James Schouler, and H. G. Wood, are also found here, with fewer articles attributed to them ; but who would look in this list for the authors in general literature ? Yet here are found the names of Edward Everett, Henry George, T. W. Higginson, W. D. Howells, Henry James, Charles Lamb, Francis Lieber, the Marquis of Lorne, Francis Parkman, James Parton, Sir Lyon Playfair, De Tocqueville, A. W. Tourgee, and Anthony Trollope. And here also are statesmen and politicians, — Jere. S. Black, Jainea G. Blaine, Benj:imin F. Butler, Caleb Gushing, George F. Edmunds, James A. Garfield, George F. Hoar, Wendell Phillips, Carl Schurz, Charles Sumner, Lyman Trumbull, and Daniel Webster. These latter are probably authors of constitutional, semi-political, or biographical articles. But their names show what a wide range Mr. Jones has taken in his indexing. RECENT LAW BOOKS.

An Excellent History of the United States. — Whoever has Ban- croft's History to 1783 ought certainly to get, as a supplement and con- tinuation, Mr. Schouler's very graphic and interesting " History of the United States under the Constitution." He is sound and thorough and trustworthy as an historian, as he is in legal authorship ; and he de- scribes not only the dry facts of politics, but all the diverse elements which entered into the daily life and character of our forefathers. THE LEADING LAW BOOK OF 1887. It is not too much to claim that Schouler on Wills was the most successful legal publication brought out last year. As a purely American treatise on so important a subject, brought into the compass of one vol- ume, by a well-known and approved author, it has already had a large sale and taken place as the standard treatise on Wills. Prof. Charles A. Collin, of the Cornell Law School, presents very well the general ver- dict thus : " I have examined it carefully. It is one of those rare books, equally useful in the law school and in the law office. I have had no hesi- tation in adopting it as a text-book here." With Schouler ox Wills and Schouler on Executors on his shelves, the practitioner is prepared for any questions or any ca.se that clients may surprise him with.
