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


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 win have rendered great service
10 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 usein this country. The
present publication, from its form, its style of
cution and moderate price, think, cannot fail in
remunerating you. The translation by Mr.. Stra-
han 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
ing of those reforms ofhe law which in progress
in different parts of the United States, the value OF
the civil law will be appreciated as 1t 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 1t have been translated into Eng
lish, and this want has not been supplied by the
original English treatses on that subject. have
no doubt that in Louisiana, in Texas in Califor-
na and in the new Territories Of the UIited States,
as well as in Lower Canada, there will be ready
demand for your publication. The profession
throughout the Union will readily lend their favor
TO the undertaking; and trust that your enter
prisng house will find its interest in publishing,
from time to time, in the English language, such
other standard works as will form the basis OF a
civil law library.
remain, gentlemen, very respectfully, your
obedient servant, GEOhGE EUSlIS.

JUsTPUBLIsHED, DOMAT (M.) CIVIL LAW
INITS NATURAL ORDER, transatedin into English
by VIM. Strahan, LID, Advocate IN DOCTORS
Commons Edited, from the secona L0nuon Eur
ton, by Hon. LUTHER s. CUSHING, late one OF
the Jud ges in the Court of Common Pleas; now Lee.
turer on Civil and Parliamentary Law IN Harvard
University. In VOLS Royal ovo.
Amonp the writers on the Roman Law whose
works are best known to Engiish and American
LAWYERS and which have exerted the most intiu-
euce upon our jurisprudence, ia DoMAT, "whose
work, entitled The Civil Law in its Natural Or
der,7' 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 disembarrass those Of the principles
and provisions Of the Roman law, which are OF gen
eral interest and application, from the technicali-
ties of the system, and, by presenting them in
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 is not lees applicable to every
system of law, IF which the Roman code is either
a part, or in which it is recognised as body of
written reason Besides the general claims which
e work thus possesses to the attention of the Anne
rcan lawyer Domat has peculiar interest in those
of the States, whose legal institutions are derived
in part from those Of France or 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 celc
brated work would be acceptable to the profession,
and have led them TO engage in republication OF
the English translation of it by DIR. Strahan

Yesterday the sum of SOL was handed
to Mr. Latson, School Trustee, from the Commi,.e.
OF the Washington Market traders, to be expended
in the relief Of the sufferers by the calamity.
When the alarm occurred, and while the children
were rushing down stairs, Miss Mcfarland placed
little boy about 10 years old, named VIM. Doyle, OF
Gsnsevoort-st, at the door of the small alphabe,
class room to keep the small children IN, and he re-
manned safe at his post till the alarm was passed.
and the very smallest OF the children, by this heroic
act, were prevented from rushing on with the Others
to the scene OF danger and death.
The fremen who have been much blamed, are sps.
ken Of as having rendered very great service, and IL
one instance two lutte girls named Latson had got a,o
a window to save themselves, when a fireman. whs
had erected ladder against the window, placed the
small girl years old, in the school ROOM and took
the other one years old, down the ladder. He then
returned. and kindly carried the small girl to her SIS
ter and thus saved them both from danger
In one Of the classes that was taught By Miss Caro-
line NJ Ebaugh there were lO9 children, who were
all saved but one and il rushed out IN the fright and
