ometimes with the familiarity of a kinsman, into the houses of Denman, Vaughan, Parke, Alderson, Langdale, and Coltman, among judges; of Follett, Rolfe (Lord Cranworth), Wilde, Crowder, Lushington, and D'Oyly, among lawyers; of Hayward, Adolphus, Clark, Bingham, Wills, Theobald, Starkie, and Professor Bell, among law-writers and reporters; of Hallam, Parkes, Senior, Grote, Jeffrey, Murray, Carlyle, Rogers, Talfourd, Whewell, and Babbage, among men of learning, culture, and science; of Maltby, Mmust be my grateful feeling to the object of your interest, for assisting to dispel the prejudices of those less enlightened days. Sumner became acquainted with the well-known publishers, Colburn, Maxwell, Bentley, Longman, William Smith, and Clark of Edinburgh; and, by means of his friendly relations with them, endeavored to promote the reading of American books in England. He obtained an English publisher for Lieber's Political Ethics, and sought to interest in the work the managers of

The Lords read their opinions on March 22, 1838. The case involvedn of arguments before the Lords. I have attended one, and sat in conversation with the Attorney-General, Lushington, and Clark, the reporter. Charles Clark, reporter (in association with W. Finnelly) of cases in the House of Lords.

The Chancellor sat at the table below the woolsack; the benches of the Lords were bare; only two unfortunate members, to whom by rotation it belonged to tend-out in this manner, were present in order to constitute the quorum. These happened to be, as Dr. Lushihich I hear from every quarter. He has been all his days a devoted student of the law; and, I believe, of nothing else. Clark, the reporter, also author of the book on Colonial Law, told me that he had most magnificently disappointed the professio

ntaries, and inquired after the Chancellor as if for an old friend. I shall not fail to write the Chancellor the agreeable inquiries which have been made with regard to him by Mr. Bell, and also by Pardessus at Paris. You are perhaps aware that Clark, the bookseller, has published a neat volume, containing the commercial parts of Kent's Commentaries; but, though he received highly commendatory letters from Lord Denman and Lord Chief-Justice Tindal, the book has not succeeded. On the other hand, your Conflict of Laws has entirely succeeded. Of that he published an edition of one thousand copies. Clark is a gentlemanly, intelligent, pushing man. I dined one day in Edinburgh with Fergusson, James Fergusson, at one time one of the Judges of the Consistory Court of Edinburgh, author of Recent Decisions by the Consistorial Court of Scotland in Actions of Divorce, and of A Treatise on the Present State of the Consistorial Law in Scotland, with Reports of Decided Cases. the author of
