" Professor Amos has certainly done much to clear the science of law from the tech- 

 nical obscurities which darken it to minds which have had no legal training, and to make 

 clear to his ' lay ' readers in how true and high a sense it can assert its right to be con- 

 sidered a science, and not a mere practice." Christian Register.

" The author traces the subject from Plato and Aristotle in Greece, and Cicero in 

 Rome, to the modern schools in the Knglish field, not slighting the teachings of the 

 American Revolution or the lessons of the French Revolution of 1793. Forms of gov- 

 ernment, political terms, the relation of law, written and unwritten, to the subject, a 

 codification from Justinian to Napoleon in France and Field in America, are treated as 

 parts of the subject in hand. Necessarily the subjects of executive and legislative au- 

 thority, police, liquor, and land laws are considered, and the question ever growing in 

 importance in all countries, the relations of corporations to the state." N. Y. Observer. 



IGEST OF THE LAWS, CUSTOMS, MAN- 

 NERS, AND INSTITUTIONS OF ANCIENT AND 

 MODERN NA TIONS. By THOMAS DEW, late President of 

 the College of William and Mary. 8vo. Cloth, $2.00. 



No pains have been spared by the author to secure accuracy in facts and figures ; and 

 in doubtful cases references are given in parentheses, so that the student can readily 

 satisfy himself by going to original sources. The department of Modern History, too 

 often neglected in works of this kind, has received special care and attention.

 Law. In Twelve Academical Lectures. By Professor JAMES 

 HADLEY. i2mo. Cloth, $1.25. 



"The most valuable short account of the nature and importance of the body of Ro- 

 man law. The lectures are free from embarrassing technical details, while at the same 

 time they are sufficiently elaborate to give a definite idea of tke nature and the great- 

 ness of the subject." Dr. C. K. Adams's Manual of Historical Literature.
