the medium of an implied promise, had it not been suspended by some positive rule of law, but can give no original cause of action, if the obligation on which it is founded never could have been enforced at law, though not barred by any legal maxim or statute provision." It would seem, therefore, that the case of Gibson v. Dickie, (3 M. & S. 433), where a declaration, stating a promise in consideration of past cohabitation, was held good, would not now be considered as an authority. This judgment, however, does not at all affect those cases in which the money is secured by a deed or bond, as there no consideration is necessary, and that of past cohabitation not being illegal, an instrument under seal would be valid. 'therewith,' it may be doubted whether, in cases simi 'lar to the following, the building broken could be held to be a building within the curtilage. The prose cutor, a farmer, had a dwelling-house in which he lived, a stable, a cottage, a cow-house, and barn, al in one range of buildings, in the order mentioned, and 'under one roof, but they were not inclosed by any yard or wall, and had no internal communication The offence was committed in the barn, and the judges held this to be a burglary; for the barn which was under the same roof, was parcel of and enjoyed with the dwelling-house. In this case, as the building 'broken had no communication between such building ' and dwelling-house, either immediate, or by means of 'a covered and inclosed passage, leading from one to 'the other,' it is apprehended that it was not such a building as could be deemed to be part of a dwellinghouse, since the 7 & 8 Geo. 4, c. 29, s. 13; and on the There are already so many able works on Criminal other hand, there seems to be a difficulty in deciding Law, that the appearance of a new one excited our sur- 'that the breaking of such a building would fall under prise, and disposed us to examine narrowly into its the 14th section; for although occupied with a dwellclaims to the attention of the profession. With thising-house, can it be said to be a building within the view we looked at the preface to learn what the author could say in vindication of himself. Our readers shall hear his own words: A Synopsis of the Law relating to Indictable Offences. -- "The following pages are presented to the profession with a full consciousness of there being already several most able and valuable works relating to the Criminal 'Law, which have most deservedly obtained their confidence and approbation; and that this fact calls for some explanation, why any further work should be submitted to their attention. The peculiar arrangement of this work is alone relied upon, to supply such explanation, as affording it is hoped greater facilities for reference to the various offences, and the points of law arising under each, than have been supplied by any previous volume: the combination of the alpha'betical and tabular arrangements, serving to direct the eye at once to the subject of which it is in search. The limited object of this compilation also tends to distinguish it from other works; as not including any 'treatise on pleading, evidence, and practice generally, but only such matter in connexion with these subjects as the decided cases, and the doctrines of text-writers, 'noticed under each offence, may embrace, and as it 'may be useful to remind the practitioner of, in the course of actual business; directing at the same time 'to the sources of more elaborate information." The arrangement thus spoken of consists in dividing the book into four columns, in the first of which the crimes are placed in alphabetical order, whilst in the second we have the punishment stated, in the third the requisite evidence, and in the fourth "a condensed digest of cases," so that the reader may at a glance inform himself of everything relating to any particular offence; and the column of punishments is especially useful where alterations have been made by recent statutes. References are added to precedents of indictments, and to other works on criminal pleading and evidence. As the merits of the arrangement cannot be judged of except by an examination of the book itself, we shall only present to our readers one example of the author's observations. In a note to the 13th section of 7 & 8 Geo. 4, c. 29, which relates to breaking and entering a building within the curtilage and stealing therein, he observes, that "It would seem to have been the intention of the legislature, to provide by this section for the protection of all such buildings occupied with a dwelling-house, as are excluded, by the previous section 13, from the <definition of a dwelling-house in burglary, housebreaking, and stealing in a dwelling-house to the value of 5l.; but as it is specifically said that a building, in 'order to come within sect. 14, must be within the curtilage of a dwelling-house,' as well as occupied curtilage of a dwelling-house?"" We need only add, that, as far as our perusal has enabled us to form an opinion, the author has ably and carefully executed his task; and we may safely predict, that his book will be found a very useful companion in a criminal court. passing of the Act. sonal, contain enactments or provisions relating to the recoWhereas divers acts of parliament, public, local, and pervery of double, treble, or other costs, in certain cases, and to the pleading of the general issue, and the giving any special matter in evidence at any trial to be had for any matter done in pursuance of or under the authority of the said acts, and to the giving of notice of action before any action shall be com menced; And whereas it is expedient that the law should be altered in such respects: be it therefore enacted &c., That so much of any clause, enactment, or provision in any act or acts commonly called public, local, and personal, or local and personal, or in any act or acts of a local or personal nature, whereby it is other than the usual costs between party and party shall or may enacted or provided, that either double or treble costs or any be recovered, shall be and the same are hereby repealed: Provided always, That in lieu thereof, the usual costs between party and party shall and may be recovered, and no more. 2.
