"Every overseer, churchwarden, vestryman, or other active parishioner who would know what are his constitutional duties, what are his rights, what he can do, and what he ought to do, should take Mr. Toulmin Smith's volume as a text-book. Mr. Smith does especial good service in setting forth how thoroughly the parish is a secular institution, in its first intention as in its whole structure; and how unjustifiable is every attempt to subject its free system of representative government to the despotism of its pulpit. We may call this for granting to her Majesty Duties on Succession to Property, and for altering certain Provisions of the Acts charging Duties on Legacies and Shares of Personal Estates.

Mr. Smith A MANUAL of CIVIL LAW; or, Examination in the treats of the history of parishes; dignifies the vestry with historical research upon its constitution; discusses the legal and constitutional position of every parish officer in detail, from the churchwarden to the beadle, the sexton, and the vestry clerk; treats upon parochial committees and trustees; has a chapter upon the position of the parson; and enlarges upon all the powers of a parish, whether they concern its roads, its records, its health, the care of its poor, its fire-engines, or any other thing belonging to it. The law concerning rates and taxes (each rate and tax being discussed separately) is also explained; and many suggestions are thrown out, under these various heads of discussion, having in view the throwing of fresh life into parochial business. . . . We see no reason why every man who loves his parish should not give a hearty welcome to this useful book, and so secure it a wide audience."-Examiner. "Mr. Toulmin Smith's great practical experience of the subject treated necessarily gives a peculiar value to this book; and besides the author's practical knowledge, his learning on the subject is of the soundest and most practical nature. In the multitude of constitutional, legal, and practical matters of the very highest value, and of vital importance to the existence of England as a free and wellgoverned country, it is not easy to select any particular chapters or sections as specimens of the whole."-Jurist. As a "Mr. Toulmin Smith has devoted a great portion of his life to the study of the old forms of liberty which our ancestors bequeathed us, especially in respect to parish affairs; and as a consequence of his labours, we have now an elaborate book on The Parish,' which will be found, we think, to contain all the information upon this voluminous question which the simple subject of this realm may need. lawyer, Mr. Toulmin Smith is able to go into those details about parish duties and parish rights which every free inhabitant of this country ought to know; and as the book is written for the instruction of the public in general, and not the legal class in particular, and as it is quite a novelty and desideratum, it will be received as a great boon and a considerable authority. The author deals with the obligations and powers of an English parish meeting, and the officers and duties of the parish; and he gives illustrations of the practical working of the parish institution in all secular affairs. And at the end of the book there is a copious index, which enables the reader at once to turn to the text for the solution of any difficulty in connexion with parish matters." -Empire. "Mr. Toulmin Smith has highly distinguished himself as an uncompromising champion of ancient Anglo-Saxon institutions, amongst which the coroner's court holds a prominent place. His work entitled The Parish' is a remarkable protest against a centralising spirit, which is one of the characteristics of modern legislation. . . . . His book displays considerable erudition, and is admirably written."Lancet. "This book is so written as to combine profound and accurate legal learning and professional and practical knowledge with a popular and untechnical exposition of the subject-matter. Independently of the legal and practical value of this book as a trustworthy guide to parish officers in the performance of their duties, it has a constitutional and historical value of no ordinary kind."-Globe. "This book is an interesting one, containing much practical information concerning parochial duties, with which it concerns every one to be conversant; and its utility will not be by any means confined to those who agree in the opinions of the writer."-Morning Post. "The parish stands, or ought to stand, in the same relation with regard to the ratepayers as the kingdom does to its Parliament. But the means of knowing his rights and duties have hitherto been denied to a man of ordinary education and means. The book now before our notice will be of great service in supplying this hiatus. Written in a condensed form and comprehensible style, it combines the accuracy of a law-book with the pleasant tone of an essay and the usefulness of a dictionary.... As a practical treatise of reference, we can sincerely recommend this book to our readers. . . . . Let them place it upon Institutes of Justinian: being a Translation of and Commentary on that Work.
