morandum will have been effectually performed also —that is, a digest will have been actually or virtually made, and, in the course of framing the act, used and become unnecessary, and all the uncertainties which could be noticed on a revision will have been cleared up. Perhaps the foregoing proposal may appear no great matter to those who have been expecting something new and great and comprehensive, which was to relieve the public at once of those thirty-nine quarto volumes, and all the other annoyances of which complaints are so common. My answer to any one who should express any such disappointment would be, that it is something to have ascertained clearly that there is nothing new or great or comprehensive to be done. Vague language, both in speaking of the inconvenience of the present state of the law, and of the remedies to be brought to it, has been one, and not the least, of the causes which have hitherto deterred practical and moderate men from attempting to effect improvements; and if I have proved that the old and known course is also the best, if not the only course that admits of being practically pursued, I have at any rate proved something which was not universally felt or admitted before." In support of this proposal, Mr. Ker observes-first, that it is useless to propose any work which is not of such a nature and in such a form that it can hope to pass through Parliament, according to its present constitution and usages; secondly, that a scientific analysis of the law would not afford facilities either to the public for reference and use, or to the Legislature for appeal; that to keep rights and remedies distinct, as has been suggested, the whole law must be recast; and gradual amendment, in the way proposed by Mr. Ker, would be impracticable. But this last remark is not, we presume, offered as an argument in favour of Mr. Ker's plan. "The law," says Mr. Ker, "must be in such a form that it may be altered by isolated bills in any particular, and by bills which may be themselves discussed, altered, partially abandoned in their progress through the House, &c.; and any classification so abstract that the results of such alterations or abandonments in the course of debate could not be seen with tolerable clearness and ease, would be an obstruction to the course of business, and bills would be passed in defiance of such a classification. I imagine that those who advocate any such classification as I have alluded to unconsciously reserve to themselves a power of treating all new acts of Parliament merely as resolutions or instructions from which they themselves are to make the necessary alterations in their statutory code. It is obvious that nothing of this kind is practicable without an entire change in the mode of passing bills; and the arrangement of the law must therefore be such that the laws passed by future Parliaments, in the way in which we know they will and must be passed, whether well or ill drawn, will not be absolutely incapable of amalgamating with the old." Mr. Ker must be speaking ironically when he deprecates a classification "so abstract that the result of alterations or abandonments in the course of debate could not be seen with tolerable clearness and ease." If obscurity and difficulty, instead of clearness and facility, were the incidents of classification, the present practice of passing bills and amendments, of which neither the framers nor the legislators see the results, must surely be a good preparation for legislating on a classified statute-book. We find it difficult to reconcile Mr. Ker's denial of the practicability of a consolidation of the whole of our statute law at once with his recognition of the complete success of a similar experiment in America. The state of the statute law and the constitution and usages of the Legislature of New York, at the time when the revised statutes of New York were passed, were not so widely different from those now existing as to allow of a consolidation which would be impracticable in the one state, being readily effected in the other. Mr. Ker says in his first report, that "the state of New York, having long felt the necessity of a revision of their statutes, which were in a great degree similar to those in this country, a commission was issued, and a very successful revision and consolidation of the statutes was effected. . . . The whole revised statutes, containing the reports of the commissioners, is printed in three moderate-sized octavo volumes;" and the same thing has been done in the state of Massachusetts. Whether the New York commissioners performed their task well or ill, and whether experience has shewn, or will shew, that they acted wisely, when "in numerous instances they reduced the rules of the common law to a text, and inserted them in their proper place in connexion with the statutory provisions on the subject to which they relate," is not material to the present question. The examples of New York and Massachusetts prove that the consolidation of the whole statute law of a country may be effected consistently with the forms and usages of a constitutional legislature. Mr. Ker says "I have requested Mr. Rogers to draw up a paper containing a statement of the several groups of statutes which relate to the same subject, and which he conceives may be properly embodied in separate consolidation acts. This statement, although it is not of course to be considered as complete, is very useful, as shewing the present state of the statute-book, and the probable advantage which would arise from the process of consolidation. This paper is subjoined, and I think will shew the great and accurate knowledge possessed by Mr. Rogers of the whole contents of the statute-book. Another paper, on the consolidation or revision of the statutes relating to property, entering into greater detail than the nature of Mr. Rogers's paper admits of, is in course of preparation by myself and Mr. Brickdale, and will be presented to your Lordship with my next report." The paper by Mr. Rogers is a kind of index to the general acts, without the references, but stating the number of acts on each subject, arranged alphabetically, in subdivisions, under the following general heads :"The Crown and Parliament," "Finance," "Public Economy,' Rights of Private Persons," "Persons under Disabilities," ""Administration of Civil Justice," "Criminal Law," "Administration of Criminal Justice," and "Religion." Mr. Rogers calls this table "An Analysis of the Public General Acts." It has no claim to that title. Analysis, in relation to the subject in hand, means a pulling to pieces for the purpose of re-arrangement, and a systematic re-arrangement of the results. Here is neither a pulling to pieces nor a re-arrangement. The subjects of the various acts are taken in the concrete, as they have been taken by the Legislature, and indexed. Systematic arrangement in such a proceeding was impossible. Accordingly we find "Education, Science, and the Fine Arts," a subdivision of the head "Public Economy;" while there is, widely removed in the table, a distinct head of "Religion." The latter head includes the subjects of Dissent, Tithes, and Leases of Church Lands; while Heresy and Roman Catholic Relief are placed under "Criminal Law;" the Land Tax under Finance;" County Rates under "Public Economy;" and Alienation under "Rights of Private Persons." Again: the Customs, the Post-office, &c. are subdivisions of "Finance;" but Offences against the Customs and Post-office Laws are classed under "Criminal Law." With respect to debtor and creditor, we find Benefit Building Societies, Industrial and Provident Institutions, Insurance and Joint stock Companies, under "Public Economy;" Fraudulent Assurances and Mortgages under "Rights relating to 66 we Real Property;" Bills of Exchange, Bonds, Contracts, protection of purchasers in some cases, not in others. Mr. Ker's scheme of a succession of consolidation acts, * See Professor Foster's recent and very able work, Elements of Jurisprudence, Lecture 6. "Con putting the statute-book into systematic order, and keeping it so, would be, that every amendment of the law, instead of being partial, as it now invariably is, would be necessarily extended and adopted to the full extent of the principle involved in it. For these reasons we utterly dissent from Mr. Ker's proposal, and deny his assertion that a more scientific plan would fail in practice. Whether the present commissioners, or any of them, are or is competent to devise and carry into effect a rational and complete arrangement of the statute law, is a question with which we have nothing to do; but we are quite certain that the task is not beyond the power of any lawyer who has been trained to habits of accurate analysis, and that when it is performed the result will be far more intelligible to the Legislature and to the public than any consolidation bill that has yet been prepared or is likely to be prepared on Mr. Ker's plan. Let the Government only offer a prize of 1000l., and the prospect of a commissionership, for the best analysis of the existing statute law, and we will promise them the agreeable dilemma of having to choose between a dozen analyses, all undeniably sufficient and complete, identical in every essential-differing only in unimportant particulars of terminology and style. The thing is as easy and certain as any operation in the mathematics. London Gazettes. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10.
