The Law Chronicle And Law Students Magazine Vol 1

Excerpt from The Law Chronicle and Law Students' Magazine, Vol. 1: From January to December, 1859 Whatever changes the legislature may effect, there is one spirit which pervades and ever will pervade the whole law, because the composition of the statutes is more or less the work of experienced lawyers imbued with that spirit, who are employed to carry out the designs of the projectors, and the reduction of the Acts of Parliament to practise is the province of the Courts whose very atmosphere is saturated with the same spirit; to imbibe which spirit as much as possible is, therefore, most important to the clear comprehension of the law. Another point for the attention of the student at this time is to endea vour to take a comprehensive view of every work he may read. Let him consider well what relation its subject bears to other branches of law or equity, and disdain not to read the preface and the analysis (if there be one) and make himself master of the author's general view, and mode of dividing and treating the subject before he begins to read the book.
