Ju'ges' opicions of civil Jurles seem not to be invariably appreciative or complimentary to the latter. "The palladiam of British liberties" appears to be a bit shaky at present. and under all the chrcumstances, it is not surprising that a bill should have been introduced Into the New South Wales Legislative Council to effect the abolition of juries for the trial of civil actions. Professedly the bill to one to enable enlis to be tied by a judge alone, the power to summon a jury being reserved to saltore; but the mearure, if paced, would, la practice, supersede the jury system altogether, leaving ti to the judge to decide upon the facts as well as the law of the cases tried.

It may well be doubled whether the present cvlls are of sufficient importance to jailly radical a change as that suggested. As far as the jurors themselves are concerned, compisiats would be minimised. If the process of selection were altered so that s juror could not be called oftener than, say, once a year The chief hardship now is that some men are summoned four or five times a year, while others are omiited year after year. And with regard to unreasonable verdicis, although it may be admited that the Banco Court may have good reason for granting new trials in some cases, it must also be remembered that only la excep. tional instances is there any appeal to the Fall Court. As a rula liigants are content to accept the verdicts recorded, and only when there is reason to believe that, the jury have erred is there any criticism of their fading. In this matter of doubted verdicts, too, there is room for question whether the verdict ofa judge would be more usually accurate.
