The statutes of the last session relating to conveyancing are referred to throughout the body of the work; so that the student is saved the inconvenience, generally experienced in the perusal of a new edition of an old work, of finding the impressions he has acquired from the text afterwards modified or contradicted in the notes. The work is intended, to use the words of the author in his Preface, as "A First Book for the Use of Students in Conveyancing, as easy and readable as the nature of the subject will allow. In attempting this object, he has not always folinteresting course of original investigation. He has endeavoured to lowed the old beaten track, but has pursued the more difficult, yet more lead the student rather to work out his knowledge for himself, than to be content to gather fragments at the hands of authority. If the student wishes to become an adept in the practice of conveyancing, he must first be a master of the science; and if he would master the science, he should first trace out to their sources those great and leading principles, which, when well known, give easy access to innumerable minute details."

Any person in the habit of reading the reports of the decisions of our courts and we doubt not, that, notwithstanding their number and variety, there are many such-cannot fail to have observed how frequently points are raised which might at first be supposed to have been long since settled. Indeed, this constant occurrence of new questions for judicial determination, appearance as disputed creates an involuntary surprise, affords an argument, not easily answered, against the efficacy of a system of codification; shewing, as it does, that no code of laws can anticipate the immense variety of questions which arise out of the dealings of men with each other. whose of says, "It may be, that, where you sue and recover a judgment against one debtor only, on a contract which is joint and not several, your right to sue on the joint contract is destroyed. That, if so, would be so merely on the ground of the difficulty to which the form of action would give rise. If, on a joint contract, you have sued one, and entered judgment against him, there might be an invincible obstacle; because, upon a new action against another of the parties to the contract, the defendant would have a right to plead that he made no promise, except with the other defendant, against whom the judgment was entered, and he could not be joined. Therefore, though we have met with no case which establishes the position, we are inclined to think, that, in the case of a joint debt, a judgment against one joint contractor would be a bar to an action against another."
