the English language, the same subject, is to be
compared with it, for the fullncss and correctness
Of the doctrine conveyed throughout it.
FROM the timo of it's publication, up to the pre-
sent, it has received the appreciation of the most
learned men and lawyers in every country, and
very deservedly. The compilcrs of the Code Ma
poleon drew copiously from it for their work. Ma
poleon himself studied it most carefully in carly
life, which may account for the singular acutcness
and wisdom OF his observations and decisions dur

Domat should, and hope will be, found in the Ii
brary Of every American lawyer.
