work, entitled The Ciril Lau in its Natural Or
der" says Judge Story, preface to Bailments, }
considering the age and the circumstances in
which il was written, is truly wonderful per-
formance. His method is excellent, and hin mat
ter clear, exact, and comprehensive"
The object of the author, in this learned produc-
-ion, was TO disembarrass those of the principles
and provisions Of the Roman law, which 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
inteihgible, and their attainment more useful and
agreeable; and, though the work was particular
intended for and adapted to the French jurispru-
dence Of the age, it is not less applicable every
system of law, Of which the Roman code is either
part, or in which it s recognised as q body OF
written reason. Besides the general claims which
the work thus possesses TO the attention of the Ame-
rcan lawyer, Douat hss 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
OF the publishers that modern edition of this cee

and have led them to engage in a republication o
