JUST PUBLISHED. DoMAT (bI.) CIVIL LAW
INITS NATURAL ORDER, translatedin into English
by VIM. Strahan, Ii. d., Advocate IN Doctors
Commons. Edited, from the second London Eoi-
ton, by Hon. LUTHER s. CUSHING, late one oil
the Judgesiu 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 10 English and American
lawyers, and which have exerted the most lnnu-
ence upon our Jurisprudence, 10 DomAT, "whose
work, entitled The Itrtl Law va us -sdtWut VI
DER" says Judge Story, preface to Bailments,)
.'considcfing the age and the circumstances IN
which il 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 of gem
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
ineligible, and their attainment more useful and
agreeable and, though the work was particularly
intended for and adapted 10 the French jurispru-
dence of the age, il is not less applicable to every
system of law, Of which the Roman code is either
a part, or in which ii is recognised as body OF
written reason. Besides the general claims which
the work thus possesses to the attention OF the Anne
can lawyer Donat 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 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 republication OF
the English translation of 1t by DIR. Strahan
