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

BRooKLINE, Der. 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 viii have rendered a 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 this country The
present publication, from its form, its style Of
cution, and moderate price, Think, cannot fail in
remunerating you. The translation by MIR. Stra-
nan has been tested it is in the main correct, but
will be improved under the revision of the editor,
Judge Cushing
In searching for 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 ofthe law which in progress
in different parts Of the United States, the value of
the civil law will be appreciated as it 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 is the real basis of
the Jurisprudence of continental Europe, and of q
large portion of that of England and the United
States.
1t would be quite useless for me 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-
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 trcatses on that subject. have
no doubt that in Louisiana, in Texas, in Califor-
nia and in the new Territories Of the UL tied States
as we'll as in Lower Canada, there will be a 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 it's interest in publishing,
from time to time, in the English language, such
other standard works will form the basis Of a
civil law library.

JUST PUBLISHED, DOMAT (NI. CIVIL LAW
by VIM. Strahan, LID, Advocate in Doctors
Commons. Edited, from the second London Edi
tion, by Hon. LUTHER s. CUSHING, late one Of
the Jud gcs in the Court of Common Pleas; now Lee
turer on Civil and Parliamentary Law in Harvard
University. In vols. Royal Svo.
Among the writers on the Roman Law whose
works are best known to English and American
lawyers, and which have exerted the most infiu-
ence upon our Jurisprudence, is DoMAr, "whese
work, entitled ine tiUii Lag 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-
tion, was to dsembarrass 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 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
dcnce of the age, it is not less applicable to every
system of law, ef which the Roman code is either
a part, or in which it ia recognised body of
written reason. Besides the general claims which
he work thus possesses to the attention Of the Ame
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 cee
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.
