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

BRooKLINE, OCT. III, 1850.
GEsrLrMEN: / 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 viii have rendered great service
To the science of law by the publication. The form
of the English edition Of the translation was too
large and incOnvenient-and Its scarcity and hlgh
price prevented its general in this country The
present publication from form, its style OF exc
cution and moderate price, Think, cannot fail in
remunerating you The translation by Mr. Stra-
nan has been tested it is in the main correct, but
will be improved under the revision of the editor,
Judge Cuahing. N
In searching for a solution Of the apparently new
questions arising out of the various relations which
our advance in civilization is creating, and In Judg-
ing of those reforms the law which in progress
in different parts of the United States the value Of
the civil law will be appreciated az 1t comes to be
understood II cannot be otherwise with system
of written which for centuries governed the
most wonderful social organization that the world
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 peak 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-
mitted 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 on that subject. have
no doubt that in Louisiana, in Texas, in Califor-
MIA and in the new Territories of the ULited States
ms well as in 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 a
civil law library.
/ remain, gentlemen, very respeCtIuly, your
obedient servant, GEORGE EUST1S.
Messrs. LITTLE & BRowN.

JUSTPUBILSHED, DOMAT IN } CIVIL LAW
INITS NATURAL ORDER, translated into Engiish
by VIM. Strahan, LID, Advocate in Doctors'
Commons. Edited, from the second London Edi-
ton, by Hon LUTHER 3; CushiHG, iaee one o'
the Judges in the Court of Common Pleas; now Lee,
turer on Civil and Parliamentary Law IN Harvard
University. In vols. Royal Syo.
Among the writer's on the Roman Law whose
works are best known to English and American
LAWYERS and which have exerted the moet inlu-
ence upon our jurisprudence, ia DonAr, "whose
work. entitled The Ciril LaU IN its Natural Or-
der" SAYS Judge Story, preface to Bailments, }
s.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 Q
natural and scientific method, to render them more
inteligible, and their attainment more useful ant
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 cithe
a part, or in which it is recognised as body o
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 are derived
in part from those Of France Spain, and are thus
founded in the Roman law.
These reasons have induced belief on the par
of the publishers that modern edition OF this ccle
brated work would be acceptable to the profession
and have led them to engage in republication o
the English translation of it by Dr. Strahan

The relative growth Of the two great Ang-
lo-Saxon States is noteworthy. In 1901 the
population OF Great Britain was IO,9l2,5I6i
in 1900 that Of the United States was 5,3I9,.
762-or not quite half In 1850, the popu.
lation of the Unitcd States is two millions and
a third mop than that Of Great Britain Ia

by three millions. The rate Of dcccnnial IN
crease in this country is less than fiflecn per
cent Ia the great continental States the
rate is considerably lower than in England
According TO the progress Of the Last fifty
years in France and America, the United
States will have the larger population ia
is70--in 1900, they will exceed those of
England, France, Spain, Portugal, Den,
mark, Sweden, and Switzerland combined
Prudent statesmen should bear these facts ia
