Modern State Trials : Revised and Illustrated, with Essays and Notes. By William C. Townsend, Esq., M.A., Q.C., Recorder of Macclesfield. In 2 vols. 8vo. Longman & Co. 1850.

Lord Campbell has made considerable use of Mr Townsend's collection, and publicly acknowledged his obligations, in his Lives of the Lord Chancellors and Lord Chief-Justices . It is not impossible that we may, before long, present our readers with an extended examination of these two important works of the new Lord Chief-Justice of the Queen's Bench.

1 Townsend, pp. 99-100; and see the argument reported at length in Regina v. Frost, 9 Carr and Payne, 165-187. Of these fifteen Judges, only six are still on the Bench – Barons Parke, Alderson, Rolfe; and Justices Patteson, Coleridge, and Maule – nine having disappeared during the last ten years. It will be observed that the three chiefs of the Courts were of one way of thinking, viz. that there had been a good delivery of the list of witnesses, in point of law.
