JUsTPUBLISHED, DoMAT (M.) CIVIL LAW
INITS NATURAL ORDER, translatedinto English
by WIN. Strahan, LID, Advocate in Doctors'
Commons. Edited from the second LONDON Eai,
tion by Hon. LUTHER s. CUSHING, late one oil
the Judges in the Court of Common Pleas; now Lee,
turer on Civil and Parliamentary Law In Harvard
University. In vols. Royal svo.
Among the writers on the houian Law whose
works are best known 10 English and American
layvers and which have exerted the most infiu-
ence upon our Jurisprudence, is DoMAT, "whose
work entitled The Cirii Latc M ats Natural Or
der, soys Judge Story, preface to Bailments,)
considering the age and the circumstances in
which it was written, Is truly wonderful per-
formance His method is excellent, and his mat
ter clear, exact, and comprehensive"
The object Of the author, in this learned produc-
ton was TO disembarrass those of the principles
and provisions of the Roman law, which are Of gen
eral interest and application, from the technicali-
ties of the system, and, by presenting them in a
natural AID scientific method, to render them more
intelligible and their attainment more useful and
agreeable; and, though the work was particularly
intended for and adapted to the French jurispru-
dcnce of the age, it is not less applicable to every
system of law, Of which the Roman code ia either
n part. or in which it is recognised as body oil
written reason Besides the general claims which
he work thus possesses to the attention OF the Anne
rcan lawyer Domat has peculiar interest IN those
Of the States whose legal institutions are derived
in part from those Of France 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 q republication o
the English translation of it by DR.. Strahan

FROM HON JUDGE EUSTIS, CHEF JUSTICE
OF THE STATE OF LOUISIANA.


CvxrtrNES: have examined the sheets of the
Translation of the admirable work ofDomat on the
Civil Law which you have been KIND enough to
send me. You wifi have rendered great service
TO the acience of law by the publication The form
of the English edition OF the translation was 100
large and Inconvenience its scarcity and high
price prevented its general use in this country The
nresent publication from its form, its style OF exc
cution and moderate price, think, cannot fall In
remunerating you. The translation by MIR. stra-
han has been tested il 10 in the main correct, but
will be improved under the revision OF the editor,
Judge Cushing.
In searching for a solution of the apparently new
questions arising of the various relations which
advance IN civilization Is creating ana IN Juog
ing Of those reforms ofthe law which are in progress
in different parts of the United States the value OF
the civil law will be appreciated as comes 10 DC
understood. il cannot be otherwise with system
of written reasons which for centuries governed the
most wonderful social organization that the world
has ever witnessed, and which ia the real basis of
the jurisprudence of continental Europe, and OF a
large portion of that of England and The United
States.
II would be quite useless for me to speak of the
xnerit5 of the great work which your enterprise 10
about To give to the American public. From the
isolated position which the civil law has been per-
United to occupy in England, lew OF the standard
works concerning il have been translated into Eng
Iish and this want has not been supplied by the
original English treatises on that subject have
no doubt that in louisiana in Texas, in Caifor-
MIA and in the Territories OF the Tilted States,
as well as in Lower Canada, there will be a ready
demand for your publication Inc profession
throughout the Union will readily lend their favor
10 the undertaking; and trust that your enter
prisng 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 a
civil law library.
/ remain, gentlemen, very respentiniiy, your
ohedient servant. GEORGE EUSTIS.

THE TREASON TRIALS.

Last week was week of triumphs The
Conservatism of the Senate received fatal
blow in the passage Of the Kossuth resolution,
and the doctrine Of Constructive Treason re-
celved its quietus in the acquittal of Hanaway,
and abandonment of the prosecutions for trea-
son in Philadelphia. Thank God! Slavery
has failed in its effort to smuggle into this
country the bloody code Of Jeffreys. .-.-.-
Tuesday last, in the United States Circuit
Court David Paul Brown, ESQ., made applica-
ton for the discharge of all the prisoners
charged with treason in connection with Cast
ner Runaway.
Mr.. Read also made application for the
discharge of Jackson and Lewis particularly,
he being engaged for them.
Mr.. District Attorney Ashmead urged that
all the prisoners named be held to answer for
the minor charge of misdemeanor.

then admitted to bail in the sum of $4,000.
