New York. 1827. His statements of the Cases as well as the arguments of counsel are condensed yet luminous, and he omits no opportunity of abridging when it can be done without affectintr the sense. The decisions of Chancellor Sanford, contained in the volume, show him to be "a sound lawyer; a man of uncommon strong, clear, and logical mind, and entirely free from all pedantry and parade of learning." 2 U.

The Mirror of Justices ; to which is added a book called the Diversity of Courts, and their Jurisdiction ; both trans- lated out of the French into English. By W. Hughes. A new ed., corrected. 8vo. London. 1768. 12mo. Manchester. 1840. Although this volume is known by the name of Home's Mirror, the germ of it is thought, by Coke and N. Bacon, to have been written before the Conquest, and that Home, who lived in the reign of Edw. I. or II., only made additions to it. " He very frequently quotes the Rolls of the Saxon times, and even their very Year Books, which are now vanished ; and this shows that we have lost many of our best helps towards the furnishing out of the history of those ages." Dugdale sup- poses that Home engrafted new matter upon an old Treatise, called Speculum Justiciariorum ,• but Hicks treats him as an impostor. Home says, his '' design was to give the Judges of his time a view of their comely and hard-favoured features ; the presenting them with what they should have been, as well as what they were." The Mirror was much relied on as an authority by Lord Coke, but Mr. Reeves thinks that those parts which relate to King Alfred's reign should be read with great caution, and that most of the volume was written after Fletaand Britten. 396
