FROM HON JUDGE EUSTIS, CHEF JUSTICE
OLE TIE STATE OF LOuISlANA.

BRooRLISE, Der. J. 1850
GESrLEMES have examined the sheets of the
translation of the admirable work OF Domat on the
Civil Law, which you have been kind enough to
send me You will have rendered great service
10 the science Of law by the publication The form
of the English edition of the translation too
large and inconvenient-and its scarcXy and high
price prevented its general use in this country The
present publication, from it's form, its style OF
Cution, and moderate price, think, cannot fail in
retnunerating you. The translation by Mr.. Stra
han has been tested; il is in the main correct, but
will be improved under the revision OF the editor,
Judge Cushing.
III searching for solution of the apparently new
questions arising of the various relations which
advance in civilization is creating and in judg
ing of those reforms of the law which in progress
different parts Of the United States, the value OF
the civil law will be appreciated as II comes TO be
understood. IL cannot be otherwise with system
of written which for centuries governe! the
most wonderful social organization that the world
has ever witnessed, and which is the real basis of
the jurisprudence of continental Europe. and of
large portion of that of England and the United
States.
Ii would be quite useless for me TO speak of the
merits of the great work which your enterprise is
about 70 give TO the American public. From the
isolated position which the civil law has been per-
United TO occupy in England, few of the standard
works concerning it have been translated into Eng
lish and this want has not been supplied by the
original English treatises that subject. have
no doubt that in Louisiana, in Texas, in Califor-
MIA, and in the Territories of the tied States
we'll as in Lower Canada there will be ready
demand Tor your publication. The profession
ghout the Union will readily lend their favor
10 the undertaking; and trust that your enter
prising house will find its interest in publishing.
from time TO time, in the English language, such
other standard works as will form the basis of
civil law library.
| remain, gentlemen, very respectfully, your
obedlent servant, GEORGE EUSTlS.

JUSTPUBLISHED, DoNIAT (M) CIVIL
INT NATURAL ORDER, translated into English
by VIM. Strehan, LID, Advocate in Doctors
Commons, Edited. from the second London Edi-
ton, by Hon. LUTHER 5. Gu SIZING, late one OF
the udges in the Court of Common Pleas; now Lee
turer on Civil and Parliamentary Law IN Harvard
University In vols Royal syo.
Among the writers on the Roman Law whose
works are best known 10 English and American
lawy ers, and which have exerted the most infu-
ence upon Jurisprudence, lie DoMAT, 'whose
work entitled The Cira Lar ia its Natural Or
der" says Judge Story, preface to Bailments,)
considering tile age and the circumstances IN
which il was written, is truly wonderful per
Torrance. His method ia excellent, aud his mat.
Ter clear, exact, and comprehensive ~
The object of the author in this learned produe-
ton, was 10 disembarrass those OF the principles
and provisions of the Roman law, which are of gen
eral interest and application, from the TECHNICAL
ties of the system, and, by presenting them In a
natural and scientific method, 10 render them more
integibe, and their attainment more useful and
agrecable and, though the work was particularly
intended for and adapted 10 the French ]urlspru-
dence of the age, it is not lees applicable to every
system of law, Of which the Roman code is either
a part, in which il is recognised as a body of
written reason Besides the general claims which
the work thus possesses to the attention Of the Anne
r!can lawyer Domat has peculin interest in those
of the States, whose legal institutions are derived
in part from those of France or Spain and are thus
founded in the Roman law.
These reasons have induced belief on the part
of the publishers that modern edition OF this cele
brated work would be acceptable TO the profession,
and have led them to engage in a republication OF
the English translation of it by DR. Strahan
