OUGHI BILLS OF SALE TO BE ABOLISHED ?
* Sn-ii is the rather starting question which Mr Matthew asks in the current number of tbo Law Quarterly Review, and answers emphatically in the affirmative. Mr Matthews {joints out that thVopemtion of tli" Bills of Mule Acts is now frequently ami swxcssfully evaded by hiring process ; that rcgistration is of little or uo value in the very common wise of debts contracted at a distance from the debtor's pl.'ice of residence, while,if the debts be contracted near that place, the debtor's position is sufficiently known to bis creditors without the aid of registration ; and that the execution of a bill of sale i" now commonly made a cause of forfeiture of the debtors lease. For these and other reasons, Mr. Matthews arsrups forcibly for the abolition of bills of sale; but we incline to think that the abolition would be too fjrr.at mi interference with the nsjht of the owner of floods to do what h.Tlikes with them. We shall be glad, however, if the question can come to be thoroughly discussed in all its bearings.
