escaping the conclusion, that the two decisions are in direct conflict. That being so, it is much to be lamented that the case of Hills v. Croll was not more prominently brought to the attention of Lord Cottenham, because we are thus left in doubt whether his Lordship was fully apprised of the extent to which Lord Lyndhurst's decision went, and we are therefore left to doubt how far his Lordship, if he had been so apprised, might have considered himself called upon to treat it as binding.

The principle of the decision in Dietrichsen v. Cabburn is, we conceive, this, that the equity for an injunction is independent of the jurisdiction of the court over the acts of the plaintiff; that, on a bill for an injunction, it is not necessary that there should be mutuality between the plaintiff and the defendant; and that, in a case where the plaintiff agrees to do something, and the defendant to abstain from doing something, the question is not, whether the court can perform the entirety of the double agreement,-not whether, if the situation of the parties were reversed, the defendant could compel the plaintiff to do that which he has agreed to do, but whether, assuming that the court cannot, at the hearing, compel the plaintiff to do anything, it is, therefore, without jurisdiction to restrain the defendant from doing those acts which he has, in express terms, agreed not to do; and the doctrine of the Lord Chancellor is, that the court has jurisdiction to grant such an injunction, whether it is or is not able to direct performance of the entire agreement.

The case of Rolfe v. Rolfe, (above cited), which, as we have before observed, was not cited in Dietrichsen v. Cabburn, is consistent with, though it does not go the whole length of, the doctrine of that case. In Rolfe v. Rolfe, Sir L. Shadwell, in granting the injunction, put his decision on the ground that the positive agreement of the plaintiff, and the negative agreement of the defendant, were two distinct agreements; and that, though the court could not enforce the positive agreement, yet, as the bill did not pray specific performance of the whole contract, but only an injunction to restrain the breach of the negative contract, the court could enforce that contract. The difference, therefore, between the two decisions is, that the Vice-Chancellor appears to have thought it necessary, in order to support an injunction, that the two branches of the agreement should be quite separate, and that the bill should be merely for an injunction, and not for specific performance; while the Lord Chancellor treats it as quite immaterial whether the court can or cannot perform the whole agreement, holding the jurisdiction to grant an injunction to be quite independent of the question, whether the court has or has not any authority over the acts of the plaintiff.

In conclusion, we submit that the result of the authorities, as they at present stand, is this: Rolfe v. Rolfe modifies, but does not overrule, Kemble v. Kean and Kimberley v. Jennings. Dietrichsen v. Cabburn wholly overrules them, unless it is itself to be treated as of doubtful authority, in consequence of its having been decided without the attention of Lord Cottenham having been particularly called to the question, whether Hills v. Croll had not decided the very point.

ed book, like "Burn's Justice," to the notice of the Members of the MaOn introducing a new and greatly improved edition of an old-estalish

gistracy and the Legal Profession, the Publishers need only point atten tion to the claims which it has upon two such large and influential bodies, to ensure a success similar to that which has attended all previous editions. Since the year 1837 (the date of the last edition) a considers.be number of important Statutes have been passed: by several of those Statutes the executive power of the Magistrate has been somewhat reBut-stricted, and by others extended, while the whole duties of the office have undergone too many changes not to render a New Edition (embodying every Act and decision to the present time) a valuable and necessary addition to the Libraries of Gentlemen engaged in the Local Administration of Justice. The Six Volumes have received a thorough revision; the Forms have been re-modelled, and carefully adapted to the recent changes; several new Titles (created by modern enactments) bare been introduced, and great exertions have been made to ensure a correct and full development of the Law as it now stands. The title "Poor," which occupies the whole of the Fourth Volume, has again been prepared by Mr. Commissioner Bere; and his object has been to furnish the cases at full length, being satisfied that no compendious abstract, however carefully made, would supply a satisfactory Manual for those whe attend the Quarter Sessions. The Marginal Notes and the Index are however, abridgments of the Cases, so that the general principles of the Law may be ascertained without reading the fuller statement. The great utility of the Work as an authority, presenting the cases in deta and superseding the Reports themselves, is thereby preserved, at the same time that the necessity of reading the whole is obviated by the fulness of the Marginal Note.
