and responsibility attending the publication OF the work,
and il was not without great hesitation that they

had tine State than thirty thousand dollars,
was entirely out Of print. For more than two years

indispensable requisite their libraries; and in tile
cit, of New Orleans the book is as to ", found in
the merchants counting room as upon he desk Of the
judge or the table of the attorney is net surprising
therefore that the first edition of The work quick

in some measure supply the public necessity yet il
would be imperfect and unsatisfactory une annotated
with references to the Reports and Statute in order to

made by the 1t legislature, and the important decisions
and constructions which have been given upon many
its articles BY the Supreme Court.
The publishers have secured, tor the general super.
intendence and editorial department of the work, the
professional services Of Wheelock 5 Upton, Esq. a
me ..her of the New Orleans Bar. The Hon. Judge
Bullard, JUDGE Bermudes, and Hon George Eus,is

which lhpv have collected in the OF their

work will be all that industry aud ubour, assisted by
