INITS NATURAL ORDER, translatedinto English
by VIM. Strahan, LID, Advocate in Doctors
Commons. Edited, from the second London Ed
ton by Hon. LUTHER 8 GUSHING, late one OF
turer on Civil and Parliamentary Law In Harvard
University. In vols. Royal Svo.
Among the writer's on the Roman Law whose
works are beat known 10 English and American
lawyers, and which have exerted the most infiu-
ence upon Jurisprudence, is DoMAT, "whose
work, entitled The Cipii Lao ia its Natural Or
0eTS' says Juugc ceofys kEfoiuSc W DdutncutotJ
considering the age and the circumstances in
which 1t was written, ia 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-
tion, was to disembarrass those of the principles
and provisions Of the Roman law, which are Of gen
eral interest and application, from the technical
ties of the system, and, by presenting them in
natural and scientific method, TO render them more
intelligble, and their attainment useful and
agreeable; and, though Che work particularly
intended for and adapted to the French jurispru-
dence of the age, it is not css applicable to every
system of law, If which the Roman code ia either
part, or in which it is recognised body Of
written reason. Besides the general claims which
the work thus possesses to the attention of the Anne
rScan lawyer bomat has peculiar interest in those
of the States, whose legal institutions are derived
in part from those of France Spain, and 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 a republication Of
the English translation Of it by DR.. Strahan.

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

BRooKLINE, Ocr. IL, 1880
GENTLEMEN: 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
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 high
price prevented its general use in hiscountry The
present publication, from its FORM its style of
cution, and moderate price, Think, cannot fail in
remunerating you. The translation by Mr.. Strn-
han has been tested ii 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 new
questions arising out of the various relations which
advance in civilization is creating and in judg-
ing those reforms fthe law which in progress
in different parts of the United States, value Of
the civil law will be appreciated ii comes to be
Understood II cannot be otherwise with system
of written 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
merits of the great work which your enterprise il
about to give to the American public. From the
isolated position which the civil law has been per-
rnitted to occupy in England, few of the standard
works concerning il have been translated into Eng
lish and this want has not been supplied by the
original English trcatises that subject. Ihave
doubt that in Louisiana, In Texas, in Califor
nia and in the Territories of the United States
well as in Lower Canada, there will be ready
demand for your publication.. The profession
throughout the Union will readily lend their favor
10 the undertaking; and trust that your enter
prising house will find its interest in publishing,
from time to time, in the Englizh language, such
other standard works as will form the basis Of a
civil law library.
i remain, gentlemen, very respectfully. your
obedlent servant, GEORGE EUSTIS.
