PROSPECTUS

TNoST OS,
TIE subscriber proposes to publish. in the be.
ginning Of the ensuing winter, a Condensation Of
the twenty volumes of the Old and New Series of
Martins Louisiana Reports, to be comprised in four
volumes, S.o., according to tho model OF Peters
Condensed Reports.
This work is in preparation by J. Burton
Harrison, Esq, of this city, assisted by William F
Brand, Esq. The Editor is also permitted by a
distinguished retired Judge of tho Supreme Court,
and by of tho sitting Judges, to expect from
their personal supervision all the advantage whcl,
may naturally be rcaped from their experience.
Such work is becoming every day more ne.
cessary the original is voluminous, expensive
and scarce. An increasing curiosity too ia mani.
fest, in the other States of the Union, in reference
to the peculiar Jurisprudence of Louisiana; and the
circumstance of the numerous principles here dc,
cided in the adjustment of conflicts of laws makes
the knowledge of our adjudged cases of prime u,i.
lily 10 the jurlsts of the whole Union. Moreover
the rising republic Of Texas has adopted our codes
and thus there is great demand for the Louisiana
decisions from fresh quarter.
Convenient notes, indicating tho parallel case.
decided in Louisiana, and occasionally those III the
more authoritative forums of the other States vii
be added to each case.
The work will form four volumes, royal octave
and will be delivered bound, to subscr beers at Sc
per vol. in case it should be found practicable &c
compress it into three volumes, the price to sub
scrbcrs will be 81 per vol.
