proceeding in either of such cases, that the defendant in the one case, or the plaintiff in the other, should be able to set up the equitable defence in the action. On the subject of specific performance, the giving such jurisdiction to Courts of law seems perfectly rational; but merely to do that, would be a one-sided reform as regards the public. The great object to be attained is, that the suitor may seek his remedy, so far as it is practicable, in any of her Majesty's courts, and that wherever he does choose to go, he may get complete justice. It is a hardship that in one court a plaintiff may get damages, and damages only, for the breach of a contract, and that in another he may have the contract enforced, but can have no morethat is, cannot have damages; and that is not merely a theoretical but a practical grievance, because it very often happens that a plaintiff mistakes his course— that is, goes to a Court of equity for specific performance when he is not entitled to it, though he might have been entitled to damages if he had gone originally to a Court of law. Now, what ought to be done for substantial reform of the law on such a point as this is, that whichever court a suitor happens to go into first, there he should be able to obtain complete justice. If he files a bill in Chancery for specific performance, and it turns out that he is not entitled to specific performance, but may be entitled to some damages, he ought not to be turned out of the Court of Chancery, with costs, to seek what remedy he can at law; but the Court of Chancery ought to be armed with power to say, "True it is, you are not entitled to the strict performance of the contract, but you have suffered damage, and are entitled to compensation, and we will give you damages." On the other hand, he ought not at law to be confined strictly to damages, but ought to be able to ask, in the alternative, either performance of the contract or damages.

Of course, in administering these equities, Courts of law ought to be bound to take notice of those higher principles of judicial morality, in applying the law to men's contracts, which are acted upon in Courts of equity, but have not been hitherto recognised by Courts of law. If they do not, to give them an equitable jurisdiction will only be putting into their hands a power of doing mischief instead of good.

REGULA GENERALIS.

ORDER OF COURT.-March 9.

I, the Right Hon. ROBERT MONSEY Lord CRANWORTH, Lord High Chancellor of Great Britain, do hereby order and direct in manner following-that is to say, that the General Order made by me bearing date the 31st January, 1853, be discharged, and in lieu thereof I do order, that the Registrar, in drawing up any decree or order whereby the Accountant-General shall be directed to pay or transfer any fund or part of any fund in respect of which any duty shall be payable to the revenue under the acts relating to legacy or succession duty, shall, unless such decree or order expressly provide for the payment of the duty, direct the Accountant-General to have regard to the circumnce that such duty is payable; and where, by any or order, any carrying over to a separate account In respect of which any such duty may be

66

chargeable shall be directed, the Registrar shall add the words "subject to legacy duty," or subject to succession duty," as the case may be, to the title of the account; and in order the better to provide security against the payment or transfer by the AccountantGeneral of any fund chargeable with any such duty, without the duty being first paid, the AccountantGeneral, on receiving notice from the proper officer that the duty is payable, is to cause a memorandum to be made in his books in conformity with such notice. And the Accountant-General, before executing any decree or order directing the payment or transfer of any fund, or part of any fund, in respect of which any such duty shall be payable, shall require the produc tion of the official receipt for the duty, or a certificate from the proper officer of the payment of the duty chargeable in respect of any such fund or any portion thereof respectively, by any such decree or order directed to be paid or transferred. (Signed) CRANWORTH, C.

PUBLIC EXAMINATION.-TRINITY TERM, 1854.

THE Council of Legal Education have approved of the following rules for the public examination of the students.

The attention of the students is requested to the following rules of the Inns of Court:

"As an inducement to students to propose themselves for examination, studentships shall be founded of fifty guineas per annum each, to continue for a period of three years, and one such studentship shall be conferred on the most distinguished student at each public examination; and further, the examiners shall select and certify the names of three other students who shall have passed the next best examinations, and the Inns of Court to which such students belong may, if desired, dispense with any terms, not exceeding two, that may remain to be kept by such students previously to their being called to the Bar. Provided that the examiners shall not be obliged to confer or grant any studentship or certificate unless they shall be of opinion that the examination of the students they select has been such as entitles them thereto."

"At every call to the Bar those students who have passed a public examination, and either obtained a studentship or a certificate of honour, shall take rank in seniority over all other students who shall be called on the same day."

"No student shall be eligible to be called to the Bar who shall not either have attended during one whole year the lectures of two of the Readers, or have satisfactorily passed a public examination."

RULES FOR THE PUBLIC EXAMINATION OF CANDIDATES FOR HONOURS, OR CERTIFICATES ENTITLING STUDENTS TO BE CALLED TO THE BAR.

An examination will be held in next Trinity Term, to which a student of any of the Inns of Court, who is desirous of becoming a candidate for a studentship or honours, or of obtaining a certificate of fitness for being called to the Bar, will be admissible.

Each student proposing to submit himself for examination will be required to enter his name at the treasurer's office of the Inn of Court to which he belongs on or before Monday, the 15th day of May next; and he will further be required to state in writing whether his object in offering himself for examination is to compete for a studentship or other honourable distinction, or whether he is merely desirous of obtaining a certificate preliminary to a call to the Bar.

The examination will commence on Monday, the 22nd day of May next, and will be continued on the Tuesday and Wednesday following.

It will take place in the Benchers' Reading-room of Lincoln's-inn; and the doors will be closed ten minutes after the time appointed for the commencement of the examination.

The examination by printed questions will be conducted in the following order :

Monday morning, the 22nd May, at half-past nine,
on Constitutional Law and Legal History; in the
afternoon, at half-past one, on Equity.
Tuesday morning, the 23rd May, at half-past nine,
on Common Law; in the afternoon, at half-past
one, on the Law of Real Property, &c.
Wednesday morning, the 24th May, at half-past
nine, on Jurisprudence and the Civil Law; in
the afternoon, at half-past one, a paper will
be given to the students including questions
bearing upon all the foregoing subjects of exa-
mination.

The oral examination will be conducted in the same order, during the same hours, and on the same subjects, as those already marked out for the examination by printed questions, except that on Wednesday afternoon there will be no oral examination.

The oral examination of each student will be conducted apart from the other students; and the character of that examination will vary according as the student is a candidate for honours or a studentship, or desires simply to obtain a certificate.

The oral examination and printed questions will be founded on the books below mentioned, regard being had, however, to the particular object with a view to which the student presents himself for examination.

In determining the question, whether a student has passed the examination in such a manner as to entitle him to be called to the Bar, the examiners will principally have regard to the general knowledge of law and jurisprudence which he has displayed.

Jurisdiction, 15 & 16 Vict. c. 86.
