It Is not easy to flavor a legal It pie oo as to make palatable to the gene-el taate, nor to imbae aad tiaeture a more aeaerel toptc with jut oaouab of law Bot to da euoy the popular and profeaaioaal relieh. In the eammer ot 11.

I spent wetas ta ana anoot the Inns of Cjnrt aad Westminster Bali. 1 enjoyed with keen doiiaht what 1 aaw and learned, and la coal ing about for a topic, it occurred to mo that those Se-moue Inna and it.lt more matu Hall, bo Intimately aeeodaled with Bngllah and American law, might fltly be made the basie of an addreea which I honld attempt to combine a rapid hiatorlal view with some practical observations opon the present condition of the Jorie- prndence of tae wo countries The subject abounds with rich materia of a popular and nrofeeeional character from which to draw a picture of excetdiag tntereet, but unhappily my pencil ie ia practiced in thta direction and I moat leeee to your imagination ana taste to nil in tne rongn outlines ana to supply and mellow and refine the tints of my imperfect sketch. the Old World and the Vew are striking coo treat with each other at almost every point ot oamparlaoa or new. There all Is venerable with age; flom-timeo im-flim with decrepitude.

Hera all is hew. vrllh the abounding eitajity of youth, accompanied, indeed, bot jo cften erith the inezperlenoa whih belongs to the age where life la In tbe bod or bloaeom, hut giving glorious promise on tbe mill that is to ooaaa in Que tines and at the at 'In ted eraeon. The Inne ot Court and Westminster Hall are tho wall springe and untaina of Keg I tab, aad, derivatively, of Am rican Jurisprudence There are now and for centuries have beoa four great Inoe of Court Lincoln's Inn, Qray'e Inn, tho Inner Temple nnd the Middle Temple. With these are eoa-aected abiot ten smaller Inns known as tho lnaa ol Chancery, snbordina to aad under the government of the particular Inn of Court to which they severally be-1 ag. The Inna of Conrt Including under the general name the dip Mident Inns ot Chancery, are among the moat ressarkab'e antiquities of London.

They are inures ing to all, but profoundly so to the English aad Amenc.o lawyer. 1 he legal antiquary cannot fix the exact time of the oiigla and foundation ot those Inna. But the period of their original estaoilinment can be nearly approxlma ted. Toey carry the mind back to the depths of tbe middle ages. They touch upoa the borders of Magna (Jbarta and the Crusades.

Ia the grand Bad curious ed nare of tho Inne of Court the lawyers and Judgtaot Boglaod have been trained and educated for centuries. Che gee, replacements and additioas have beeu made 1b the buildings from time to time, and the present structure as a whole, notwithstanding the admiration w.th which they are regarded by tbelr members, offer to the eya no Imp og prete ice, and no striking architectural beau- jt tho reverea, lh in tercet is mstencat ana ln- Slcre tban six centuries havs Blapsed tines ths Inns of Conrt were founded nnd Westminster Hell was at tbat time more than a oeetury eld. Tbe Inne of Court were originally provided for the cue and accommodation of lawyers and stadents of law. They have maintained thnt character to the present lime. Kech of ihe Inne has numerous bnildlnge of its i.

ooeristina of chambers or rooms te let for hire to the beiri.ters and students, and belonging to each 1bb bj a large library hall and spacious kitchea, and also a commodious and beantifnl hall need for readings, dia log. Ac, and a ohapel for religious service, tbe inner temple owning and uetnr for this purpose ths sxqnisits temple church built by the Knights Templar la Imitation of a temple Bear tha holy sepulchre at Jerusalem, aad which was dedicated ae far back ee A. D.1186. Aa teeal cotlecco or aniversltlee. it would appear that the Inne ef Court were chiefly deficient in the waat of a general oomprebenaioa ana systematic ooorse of Instruction.

The course wss essentially practical exclusively and dletinctiveiy Koglisa. The Bsaia pur pose wss Instruction In the commua lew and ita statute tables, modifications and additions. It must hava been oohttmptefrtd that much the greater part of the legal education should be acquired ia othar modes thaa from the brief readings and occasional meetings. The inne ot Court maintained their primary aad leading character as mainly Intended for legal instruc-riou Bhtii the 10th oentnry. Whoa they became pieces of gaiety and revelry their efficiency es seminaries of instruction declined, aad from the middle of tha 17th century the instruction ie them was BOSBiaal, the real luetructioa being chitfly concocted ta private offloaa.

it only la our own isox, thai; naongiaai fonotiooB of ths inns es a place of legal ineunction baa been restored. from this brief sketch It will be perceived that the Inne of Court are tut generis in their character. With in them ara collected the great body cf ths profess! oa la England. The present membership of ths Four Inns la about 8.000, of wbom 6,000 are barristers, and the reststndents. This loyal community, in all itsprofts-eivnel relations, Is governed by its own officers, laws and uaagee.

Tha chambere are let to etudeau aad bar listere. The latter have their offioea In them. Uttmar rlel members, attended by servants, frequently live ia them, and at their option take their ateals in ths diafng hsll ol tbs inn. Bach Ion has not only Its kitchen, but Its chapel; act oaly a mplete library, bot an ample dining ball and elegant drawing room, adorned wita the buea and portraits of Its amlnei.t members.

Judge Dillon said that when It Is mentioned ths world thinks of it as the Beat ot tbe Judicial Courts and the f.antoiu of Bngllah Inetlce. And its permanent Btory ie derived aot from ooroaallon, tanqoete or tho imposing spieoaor si SB oo- oeeloBBl state trial, but because it ts InetsaolBbfy associated with the history and developntBOt of ths English lew, with the reason of great jndgtw, and with ths Cams of Isained Lawytreand eecqaent advocatta. One of the cnlKf excellencir of this system is ths tad-pendent and stable tenure ol the iudgee; nnd its twe leading peculiarities ara the trial by Jnry and the doctrine stese decisis, or the authority of adjudged oases.

On -ech of these topics Judge iltlloa dwelt at BOBS leofctn. Ae the Judicial efflcshe said; The deeerved eonfl dcBcs which the whole world feels la the Juetice wniob es administered in the Bcglieh ecurts la almoet wholly das to the character of tbe Eoglieh Judges. They srs regarded with aa almost sacred reference by all classes of tier atsjesty's eutije. ts. Thay are selected from ths most eminent ot the proteeelao.

A stated and led tenure eecu es that Independence, both of popular ant royal favor, which is eeeentia' to a perfect judicial stem and to the fearless admlBBraauoa ot jusnos.
