The favorable reception given to the former edition of the following work, has encouraged the author to devote to its revision the health and leisure vouchsafed to his declining years. By a more frequent and extensive citation of authorities, he has endeavored to impart to it a more professional aspect and authentic character. He has added the most important subsequent decisions upon constitutional questions, both of the Federal and State Courts, down, as nearly as possible? to the present time, and included many earlier cases not noticed on the former occasion as not falling within a plan adapted merely to a particular and limited purpose. Thus has he attempted to render the production more acceptable to the judicial, as well as more useful to the general scholar, and to afford indeed to all, and especially to those foreigners who may desire information in regard to our political institutions, the means of acquiring it in a compendious and convenient form. If in this he has succeeded, he trusts he may in some measure have discharged the debt which, according to Lord Coke, every man owes to his profession, in this case, the double duty of the Lawyer and the Teacher. I nglewood, near Morristown, N. J., August 1, 1866.
