by VIM. Strahan, LID, Advocate in Doctors
Commons. Edited from the second London Ed-
ton, by Hon LUTHER S. 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 Syo
Among the writers the Roman Law whose
works best known to English and American
lawyers, and which have exerted the most infu-

work, entitled The Ciuii LaD in its Natural Or
DER" says 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 discmbarrass those of tho principles
and provisions of the Roman law, which are of gen
era interest and application, from the TECHNICAL
ties of the system, and, by presenting them in a
natural and scientific method, to render them more
Ineligible, and their attainment more useful and
agreeable; and, though che 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, If which the Roman code is either
a part, or in which it is recognised body Of
written reason. Besides the general claims which
he work thus possesses to the attention Of the Ame
rscan lawyer Domat has peculiar interest in those
of the States, whose legal Institutions derived
in part from those of France Spain, and thus
founded in the Roman law.
These reasons have induced belief on the part
