This book is intended to bo a complete compendium of all the Statutea, whether public or private, aftectin}^ the Province of Quebec, from tho Consolidated Statutes of Canada and Lower Canada down to and includ- inj4 the present year. It will also facilitate their study, anil save long and tedious searches. The Dominion Statutes and all Imperial or Federal Orders in Council published with them, concerning any part of Canada, are also analyzed. The various Statutes referring to each particular title are first men- tioned alphabetically, and when they are of any special importance tho contents are given. Tho amendments are stated immediately after tho clause or act amended, and then details are given of tho nature of tho amendment. These details are always very minute and precise. All criminal or penal offences, under any Act whatsoever, are clearly and specially mentioned. Particular mention is also made of all Banking, Railway, Insurance, Telegraph, Mining, Express and other companies, of all philanthropic, charitable and provident institutions, of all religious, literary and scientific associations, of divisions of old and erection of new Parishes, Municipf ''ties, &c. A good idea may be obtained from the foregoing observations, of the serious work which has been performed. It may also be readily seen that the compilation published will be of good service not only to the Legal profession and to Justices of the Peace, but also to Members of Parliament, and to men in business, as it will supply the informa^ tion which they may require upon all sub^ of general or local importance. For these reasons it ought to be well patronized, and, under the im- pression that it will be so, it is offered to the public. Montreal, August, 1879. ABBREVIATIONS.
