THE Editor of this Journal has completed and will speedily publish a translation of the PRAXIS SUPREME CURIæ ADMIRALITATIS, written by Francis Clerke, who was registrar of the Court of Arches during the reign of Queen Elizabeth. This is almost the only work on the practice of the Admiralty Court, and is esteemed as unquestionable authority at the bar. A transla tion of the third edition was published in the year 1722 « for the benefit and use of all such as are concerned in the admiralties of England, all masters of ships, mariners, and other seafaring persons." That edition was printed from a surreptitious copy Mr. Clerke's MS. and is both incorrect and incomplete. It was not until the year 1798 that justice was done to the author by the publication of a new edition, faithfully collated with two MS. copies in the handwriting of Dr. Wyseman and Dr. Lloyd. To this edition, which has been used in the present translation, many important notes are added, and the translator has taken the liberty of adding others, on the practice and jurisdiction of the District Court of the United States. An appendix will also be given, which will contain a variety of such precedents as have been established in the English and American Courts of Admiralty Jurisdiction. INDEX TO LAW JOURNAL, VOL. 1.
