Fergusson ; 2 vols. Haggard's Consistorial, and 3 vols. Ecclesiastical; 2 vols. Lee; and 3 vols. Phillimore's Reports. It would be difficult to point to any English Reports of more general value in the United States, than this selection of decisions. ENGLISH, S. H. The Laws respecting Pews, or Seats in Churches. 8vo.

Svo. Dublin. 1775. ENSOR, GEORGE. Defects of the English Laws and Tribunals. 12mo. London. 1812. This is a rambling, desultory, fault-finding, ill digested volume, in which the author finds little to praise and much to blame. Such works, however, are not without utility, since they attract the attention of legis- lators to the various departments of law, some of which, it will be acknowledged, are faulty, and thus lead to a gradual pruning of excres- cences, and changes, which every system of laws undergoes. 72 Month. Rev. 174. EPITOME of the Practice in a personal Suit in the King's Bench, Common Pleas, and Exchequer, from the Commencement to Judgment; with an Appendix, containing the Statutes affecting the Proceedings in an Action, and all the Rules verbatim, from 296
