Thk object of the roUowing pages is to embrace the fl^les o^ all the Courts, and the Acts of Assembly relating to Practice in the Supreme Court and Con^mon Pleas, in one compact and portable volui^e. The cases decided in the Province up to the present time, ' upoB questions of practice, are stated in the Notes , j and /reference is also made to some of the recent English decisioqg, .; ^l^ich are not found in the 36oks of- Practice : a more extensive referencie to /the latter, would have increased the expenxie of tb9 -work beyond what I considered myself warranted in doing. ,\l <# Ii|vi|^ had the privilege of access to the valuable Manuscnpt Cases 'of His Hbnor the Chief Ju|trce, I 'am enabled to refer to many important, cases' decided irt-the Supreme Court of this Province between the years 1825 an# 1833, and which are not • elsewhere reported. % i I cannot flatter mySelf that the reiiiarks I have occasionally made, upon what appeared to me, ^o be conflicting" rules pf \ practice, are, in every instance, correci ; but, I trust, with all iits fplts, that the work will*'be found useful, especially to the judidr members of the Profession.
