of the subject is, that from 1495 to 1895 you find two great objects kept steadily in view, namely, the maintenance of public order, and the diminution of drunkenness; and from 1660 to 1896 you find a third great object, viz., the raising of a revenue from the traffic. It is a striking instance of the continuity of English legislation. So much for English legislation, past and present. (To be continued.) STUDENTS' SOCIETIES.

The annual report of the committee and the hon. treasurer's balance-sheet were approved, and the examiner's award in the Summer Essay Competition, by which the only prize awarded was given to Mr. E. Reginald Willett, was read. A letter was read from his Honour Judge Philbrick, Q.C., consenting to be nominated for the presidency of the society for the ensuing year, and his Honour was unanimously elected president. Mr. G. E.

Has he any right of action against the auctioneer?” Mr. Lawson Taylor argued for the affirmative, and was supported by Messrs. J. Bracewell, T. B. Nowell, R. Baldwin, and T. G. Sandy. Mr. W. F. Sutcliffe argued for the negative, and was supported by Messrs. H. Ogden, J. K. Pickup, and F. Roberts. The decision was in favour of the affirmative by a majority of two. A vote of thanks to Mr. Mossop terminated the meeting. DEWSBURY, WAKEFIELD, AND DISTRICT.-An ordinary meeting was held at the Law Library, Wakefield, on the 18th inst.; Mr. W. Senior, barrister-at-law, in the chair. There were also present, Messrs. R. A. Shepherd, barrister-at-law, W. Ibberson, W. Gledhill, C. M. A. Broadbent, J. Marshall, C. E. Peace, N. N. Shaw, T. Catterall, F. C. Hodgson, S. A. R. Preston, T. H. Asquith, and H. Pickles, hon. secretary. The subject for the evening was a lecture (first of a series of three) by Mr. Shepherd on "Landlord and Tenant." He gave a very instructive lecture, and dealt with leases and agreement for leases, pointing out how they should be drawn, the difficulties in doing so, and the best methods of overcoming the latter. LEEDS.-The ordinary weekly meeting of this society was held on Tuesday, the 24th inst. in the Law Institute, Albion-place, Leeds; Mr. Jas. Beaumont occupying the chair. Mr. F. G. Jackson moved a vote of congratulation to Messrs. C. H. Close, H. C. Hepton, J. H. Milner, R. H. Moon, W. M. Wade, B.A., LL. B., and G. Whittington upon their success in having passed their Final, and to Messrs. G. E. Foster and H. Stephenson upon their success in having passed their Intermediate Examination. He remarked that it was a unique event in the history of the society for six members to have gone in for their final examination at the same time, and for all of them to have passed. The motion was seconded by Mr. Wm. Bowling, and carried unanimously. Mr. G. Glover Alexander (barristerat-law) then delivered a lucid and exhaustive lecture on " The Law relating to Clubs." He pointed out the different kinds of clubs, and explained the law regulating the rights of the members among themselves, and in their dealings with other persons. At the close of the proceedings, votes of thanks were accorded to the lecturer and chairman. MANCHESTER.-The second ordinary meeting of this society was held on the 17th inst.; Mr. C. Tallent-Bateman in the chair. Thirty-six members were present, being well above the average of previous sessions. Messrs. E. M. Coward, A. Fynes-Clinton, L. Wise, and W. Paterson were elected ordinary members. A debate was opened on the following lines: "A. finds a £5 bank-note, and takes it into his possession without knowing who the owner is. Before he finds out who the owner is he loses the note, or suffers it to be destroyed through his negligence. Can the owner claim compensation from A.?" Mr. F. Preston, for the affirmative, submitted that from time immemorial an express duty was laid on the finder of goods to keep and restore them intact to the true owner (citing Lord Coke's dictum in Isack v. Clarke), and that the negligent destruction of the same by the finder would render him liable for damages (quoting from Pollock's book on Possession, which confirmed the dictum of Lord Coke and the older cases); he argued that the fact that the subject-matter in the present case was a bank-note and not an ordinary chattel made no difference (citing Brown v. Morris), and that the owner could therefore claim compensation from A. for the negligent destruction. Mr. F. H. Williamson, in reply, argued that the case of finding of a bank-note was specially distinguished by the courts from the finding of an ordinary chattel (citing Miller v. Race), that a banknote, like ordinary cash, was the absolute property of the holder (citing Grant v. Vaughan), and that, even if any liability did attach to the holding, such liability terminated with the possession, especially as in the present case the note was of small value and possession was got rid of without (even moral) dishonesty. The following gentlemen took part in the debate: Messrs. F. B. Cunningham, G. Buckley, L. Bottomley, F. G. Hindle, W. A. Wilkinson, T. M. Lord, F. W. Watson, S. Taylor, F. S. Oppenheim, A. Syer, G. Livesey, and J. Alcock. The Chairman, in summing up the debate, gave a sketch of the law on this subject. He pointed out that, as the bank-note was not converted to the finder's own use, and did not, on the other hand, remain in his hands or control, the modern proceeding corresponding to the old actions of trover and detinue would not lie. There might, however, he agreed, on the analogy of criminal law, be a ground of action if the finder negligently destroyed the bank-note, knowing who the owner was, or having reasonable grounds to believe he could be found. On a division being taken it was found that the votes were equally divided; the Chairman thereupon, after some hesitation, gave his casting vote in favour of the negative. The committee, in their annual report, state that the aggregate number of members is now 198, being the largest number yet recorded in the society's books. During the session fourteen meetings have been held, including the annual general meeting, ten ordinary meetings, the annual dinner, a joint debate, and the mock trial. The average attendance at the ordinary meetings was nearly thirty-two, being an increase of 30 per cent. over the corresponding figures of last session. The average number of speakers at the debates was between sixteen and seventeen, being an increase of 37 per cent. over the corresponding figures of last session. The record, both of attendance at the ordinary meetings and the number of speakers at the debates, has three times been lowered, and the average of attendance and of the number of speakers at the debates would have themselves almost proved a record any previous session. The committee notice with pleasure the names of Messrs. L. Bottomley and H. P. Mellor in the Honours List of the Solicitors' Final Examination, held in Nov. 1895 and Jan. 1896 respectively. They also congratulate Messrs. Cyril Atkinson and L. Bottomley on having gained the first and second places in the London LL.B. Final Examination, and Mr. Percy Hibbert on having been awarded the Vice-Chancellor's prize in Equity and the Dauntsey Legal Scholarship for 1895. NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE.-The fourth general meeting of the society was held on Wednesday, the 18th inst., and was the occasion of the first joint debate with the Leeds Law Students' Society. Mr. Frank Marshall, vice-president of the Newcastle Society, was in the chair, and opened the proceedings by cordially welcoming the Leeds Society to Newcastle. The subject of debate was as follows: "A. travels on a railway with a copy of the current number of the Newcastle Weekly Times on him and is killed. In the paper there is an insurance coupon, the conditions of which are as follows: We promise to pay the sum of £1000 to such person as the editor of the Newcastle Weekly Times shall determine to be the next of kin of any person killed while actually travelling on the railway. Provided that it be proved that the deceased had on him a copy of the current issue of this paper at the time he met with the accident, and that death occurred within one month.' The £1000 is paid to A.'s widow. Can A.'s creditors recover the money as assets legal or equitable?" The Leeds Society took the affirmative side, and were represented by Messrs. W. R. Wilson, A. Hutley, F. G. Jackson, and A. E. Masser. The Newcastle Society, who took the negative, were represented by Messrs. E. C. Sanders, A. D. Minton Senhouse, J. H. Grant, and T. R. Ramsey. The debate was declared open for a short time, and Messrs. Heath and Lisle also spoke, after which the openers on both sides replied. The Chairman summed up and put the question to the meeting, when it was decided in the negative by a majority of seven votes. There were thirty-seven present at the meeting.-After the debate the Leeds representatives were entertained to dinner, Mr. Marshall taking the chair, and Mr. J. M. Baily the vice-chair. A very pleasant evening was spent, during which the toasts of the respective societies among others were very warmly received.

Mr. CHARLES CARNE LEWIS, the senior partner of the firm of Lewis and Quennell, solicitors, Brentwood and Billericay, died on Sunday the 15th inst., after a long and severe illness. The deceased gentleman, who was about sixty-five years of age, was a native of Brentwood, and received his early education at the Grammar School of that town, finishing it at King's College. He was admitted as a solicitor in 1854, and about the same year he became the partner with his father, Mr. Charles Lewis, who was in practice at Brentwood. His father died in 1882, and Mr. C. C. Lewis was soon afterwards appointed to several of the offices held by Mr. Lewis, sen. Among these posts was that of coroner for South Essex, an office held by the deceased gentleman until the day of his death. In addition, Mr. Lewis was clerk to the Billericay Guardians and Rural District Council, registrar to the Brentwood County Court, and clerk to the justices of Brentwood and Billericay, &c. When West Ham, which had been part of the administrative county of Essex, was incorporated, Mr. Lewis was elected to the post of coroner for that borough. In 1887 he took his nephew, Mr. J. L. Quennell, into partnership with him, the firm becoming Lewis and Quennell. Mr. Lewis was twice married. His first wife was a daughter of the late Mr. Wm. Prior-Johnson, of Brent House, Brentwood. She died in about 1878, and he subsequently married a daughter of the late Col. Wolmer. By the first marriage there are a son and a daughter, and by the second a daughter. The son, Mr. C. Edgar Lewis, since his father's illness has taken over as deputy many of his father's posts. The deceased gentleman was a Churchman. His duties were always ably discharged, and by all who came in contact with him he was greatly esteemed. He was amember of the Incorporated Law Society and also the Solicitors' Benevolent Association. Sir EDMUND GRIMANI HORNBY died on the 17th inst., at Rapallo, Italy. Born in 1825, and called to the Bar in 1848, he began his public career as private secretary to his uncle, Mr. Henry Southern, while the latter was British Minister at Lisbon and at Rio de Janeiro. He then laid the foundation of that extensive acquaintance with questions of diplomacy and international jurisprudence which distinguished him through life. His industry brought him early advancement, for in 1853 he was appointed one of the commissioners to settle outstanding claims between Great Britain and America. Two years later the Foreign Office sent him to Turkey as British Commissioner in relation to the Turkish loan. At this period Mr. Hornby also acted as judicial assessor at Constantinople, and arbitrator in all disputes respecting supplies to the Army in the East. The experience he gained in this way was turned to good account very soon, for, at the instance of Lord Clarendon, then Minister for Foreign affairs, he was selected to organise and administer the Consular Courts of the Levant, and in 1857 given the appointment of Judge of the Supreme Court at Constantinople. So successful was he in his tenure of this post that some eight years later he went to China and Japan, to undertake the work of organising Consular Courts in those countries. He acted as Chief Judge of the Supreme Court of China and Japan, until his retirement in 1876. The building up of the Consular Conrt system in these conntries, as well as in the Levant, was, to a very large extent, Sir Edmund Hornby's work, and in many ways it continues to show evident traces of his influence and discretion. Sir Edmund Hornby was a lifelong friend of the late Lord Hannen, and accompanied him to Paris for the sittings of the Behring Sea Arbitration Court. The subject of arbitration was one that occupied much of his thoughts, and a few years ago he wrote a pamphlet for the Peace Preservation Society, advocating the establishment in Switzerland of a school or faculty of international law to be kept up jointly by the Powers. Sir Edmund Hornby, who was knighted in 1862, was three times married: first in 1850, to a daughter of Count Maceroni, aide-de-camp of General Murat; secondly, in 1868, to a daughter of Mr. Thomas Hudson, of Hull; and thirdly, in 1875, to a daughter of Captain Roberts, of New York. His first wife was prominent among the ladies who acted as hospital nurses during the Crimean war, and she published two books at the time-"In and out Stamboul" and "Letters from Constantinople." Lady Hornby is still living, and Sir Edmund leaves one son-Mr. F. V. Hornby, of the Home Office, and three daughters. Mr. CHARLES BULMER, solicitor, of Leeds, died on the 18th inst. at his residence, Blenheim Lodge, Blackman-lane. He was born on the 17th Nov. 1823, and had thus just completed his seventy-third year. For several years his health had been declining. Mr. Bulmer was one of the oldest solicitors in Leeds. About 1841 he was articled to the late Mr. Wm. Middleton, and, being admitted in 1846, he commenced practice on his own account-fifty years ago. During the greater part of that period he played a responsible part in political life. A staunch Liberal, he was appointed early in his professional career secretary and legal agent of the Liberal Association of the West Riding when the Riding formed one electoral division. Part of his duties was to attend to the registration of voters in the interests of his party, and this he did for a number of years. When the Riding was divided for Parliamentary purposes into the Northern and Southern Divisions, Mr. Bulmer transferred his services to the former, and when it was once more divided into three constituencies, he became the Liberal agent of the Eastern Division. From this post he retired in 1879. In 1870 Mr. Bulmer was appointed Clerk of the Peace for Leeds, and this office he held until the early part of this year, when he felt compelled by declining vigour to retire. In 1870 the deceased took his son, Mr. Clifford Charles Bulmer, into partnership, but he died in 1879, and Mr. J. S. Lawson succeeded him as a member of the firm. Since then the practice has been carried on under the style of Bulmer and Lawson. Mr. Bulmer was one of the founders of the Leeds Provincial Building Society in 1849, and also of the Leeds Equitable Benefit Building Society in 1856, and he has acted as solicitor to both these institutions up till now. In 1846 he married Miss Susanna Emmott, who died in March 1895. Mr. Bulmer, who was a Unitarian, has left a daughter and two grandchildren. He was a member of the Incorporated Law Society. Mr. FRANCIS RAYNES, who was the oldest solicitor in England, died at Bawtry, near Doncaster, on Saturday night, the 21st inst., from congestion of the lungs. Mr. Raynes, who was in his ninety-seventh year, was a regular follower of Lord Galway's Hounds, and was well known in Nottinghamshire and South Yorkshire. He was admitted in 1822.
