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

/,
GESTLEMEN: 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 was too
large and inconvenicnt-and its scarcity and high
price prevented its general use in this country. The
present publication, from is form, Its style OF exc
cuton, and moderate price, Think, cannot fail in
remunerating 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.
In searching for a solution of the apparently
questions arising of the various relations which
our advance in civilization is creating, and in judg
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 it comes to be
understood. IL cannot be otherwise with system
of written reasons which for centuries governed the
most wonderful social organization that the world
the jurisprudence of continental Europe, and of
large portion of that of England and the United
States.
1t would be quite useless for to speak OF the
merits of the great work which your enterprise is
about to 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
ish, and this want has not been supplied by the
original English treatises on that subject have
doubt that IN Louisiana, in Texas, in Cafor-
MA and in the new Territories of the United States,
well as i'll Lower Canada, there will be ready
demand FOR your publication. The profession
throughout the Union will readily lend their favor
to 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 q
civil law library.
| remain, gentlemen, very respectfully, your
obedient servant, GEORGE EUSTiS.

INITs NATURAL ORDER, transiatedinto English
by VIM. Strahan, LII. D., Advocate IN Doctors
Commons. Edited, from the second London Edi-
ton, by Hon. LUTHER :. CUSHING, late one OF
the Judges in the Court of Common Pleas; now Lee,
turer on Civil and Parliamentary Law IN HARVARD
University In vols. Royal Nvo'
Among the writers the Roman Law whose
works are beet known 10 English and American
, lawyers and which have exerted the most infiu-
ence upon our Jurisprudence, Is DoMAT ''whose
work entitled The Cicu La,o M its Natural Or
der" says Judge Story, preface TO Bnilments)
considering the age and the circumstances IN
which it was written, is truly wonderful per-
formance. His method is excellent, aud 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 arc OF gen
eral interest and application, from the TECHNICAL
ties of the system, and, by presenting them in a
natural and 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
dence of the age, it is not less applicable to every
system of law Of which the Roman code is either
a part, or in which II is recognised as body of
written reason. Besides the general claims which
,he work thus possesses to the attention OF the Anne
r,can lawyer Domat has peculiar interest in those
of the States whose legal institutions derived
IN part from those of France or Spain, and are thus
founded in the Roman law.
These reasons have induced a 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 republication OF
the English translation of it by DR.. Strahan
