WORKS IN POLITICS, ETC. 43 charity arc cither acts of worship in themselves, or means to an end, that end being the spiritual welfare of the objects or the performers of those works.” Arguing from that point of view, she devotes the first part of her volume to a brief history of religious associations, taking as specimens—I. The Deaconesses of the Primitive Church. II. TheBeguines. III. The Third Order of S. Francis. IV. The Sisters of Charity of S. Vincent de Paul. V. The Deaconesses of Modern Germany. In the second part, Miss Stephen attempts to show what are the real wants met by Sisterhoods, to what extent the same wants may be effectually met by the organization of corre- sponding institutions on a secular basis, and what are the reasons for endeavouring to do so. ‘ * The ablest advocate of a better lint oj ■work in this direction than we have ever seen.”—Examiner. Stephen (J. F.)—A GENERAL VIEW OF THE CRIMINAL LAW OF ENGLAND. By James Fitzjames Stephen, M.A., Barrister-at-Law, Member of the Legislative Council of India. Svo. iSs. The object of this work is to give an account of the general scope, tendency, and design of an important part of our institutions, of which surely none can have a greater moral significance, or be more closely connected with broad principles of morality and politics, than those by which men rightfully, deliberately, and in cold blood, kill, enslave, and otherwise torment their fellow- creatures. The author believes it possible to explain the principles of such a system in a manner both intelligible and interesting. The Contents are—I. “ The Province of the Criminal Law.” II. “ Historical Sketch of English Criminal Law.” III. “Defi- nition of Crime in General.” IV. “Classification and Definition of Particular Crimes." V. “Criminal Procedure in General.” VI. “English Criminal Procedure.” VII. “ The Principles oj Evidence in Relation to the Criminal Law. VIII. “English Rules of Evidence.” IX. “English Criminal Legislation.” The last 150 pages are occupied with the discussion of a number ofimpoi-tant cases. “ Readers feel in his book the confidence which attaches to the writings of a man who has a great practical acquaintance with the matter of which he writes, and lawyers will agree that it fully satisfies the standard of professional accuracy.” —Saturday Review. “Ilisstyleis forcible and perspicuous, and singularly free from the unnecessary use of professional terms."— Spectator.
