Waallintrn on Easemputs ond - Servitudes:*
The term easement does not striotlycorreepond to
-servitude, for the former is confined to ,real rights,
while the latter. may be either real 'or personal.
•Scrvitutes aut personarum cunt .* • aut rerun
* * * 1. 1, D. 8, I. But all easements are servi
tudes, though the converse is not true, and the real
servitudes of the civil law. are exactly what the
common law terms easements. - It might, therefore,
not unreasonably bp expected that a writer on the
law of easements should avail himself of the pro= -
found learning on the doctrine of servitudes,-with
which the civil law and the continental judo-,
prudence abound. But Mr. Washburn .has, with
alight exceptions; purposely abstained from making
use of tine store of material, for a reason which, to
US, at least, is insufficient. So far, he,thinks, as the
common coineldee with the civil law;the latter is
useless; while, where they differ, a discuseion of the
doctrines of the civillaw. would be apt to mislead
the reader; a mode of teaselling analogous to that
assigned, for • the destruction of the Alexandrian
-Library::"lf - these books," said Omar, "agree
with the Koran they are useless; if they differ from
it they are pernicious." We regret, for the' sake`of
the common law itself, that Mr. Washburn has de
cided not to present in an accessible form the labors -
of,the Itoinan' and Continental jurists upon this sub
ject, for our eyetem,.which has already borrowed SO .•
' much, without 'acknowledgment, foreigirlaw,
might in this, without_
in other cases, be improved by the
operation. ~ •
It is singular that, after: two thoueand years, a
definition of servitude 'ehould still be a desideratum.
The classical jurists do not even attempt 14 4 at least
no trace of such attempt is found in the Digest Nor
has any of the numerous Modern definitions been so
anccetsfulns to meet with general acceptance._ Thi
baut, indeed (§ 296, note), admits the difficulty- of
constructing a precise definition, and, certainly none
of those cited by Mr. Washburn is at -all satis
factory. Perhaps the beet is that 'or the' French
Code; Art. 637: A servitude is a burden upon an im
movable, for the use and benefit of._ an immovable
belonging to a different owner.
Even at this late date, authorities differ in regard
tithe essential quality of servitudes. ' Savigny (Be- "
aitz p. 118)' says "servitudes are rights - severed
froir the ownership, jury in r e, as contrasted, with
the ownership itself, viewed the totality of all
real rights. ,, Mackeldey (§ 274) says, "servitude is
that real right in the thing of another, which is ex
erted in using the thing." Both of these definitions
. treat the servitude as a right of property in the ree
WWII& On the other hand, Elvers, the latest au
thoriti known to us, explodes the idea that a sent
tude is even a limited property in the ' rSB servitus,
but coneiders it as a right of property in some quail
fy appertaining•to the thing; such quality, by.a legal
fiction, being regarded as corporeal, and consetpAnt
lydenies to the owner of the servitude all right of
dominion over the res seruitus itself—(pp. 32-40 f) Of
course, until this fundamental point is settled, it is
vain to expect a satisfactory definition of servitudes.
Fortunately, however, the want is rather philosophi
orsithan practical ; for while it is so difficult to con
struct a perfect definition, it is not at all difficult to
decide, in a' given case, whether the right is or is not
rs:servitilde. _
As - to the sources of servitudes, Mr. Washburn
lays _downthe general rule that, being -estates in
land,lbey can only arise by a grant, which may be
proved in various ways, as by deed, by prescription,
or'Sy long enjoyment, - amounting to 'a presumption
that a deed originally existed. • We think this state
ment restricts too much the origin of servitudes.
The French code, cited by 'Mr. W.; deduces their
origin from three sources : 1. The natural situation
of the tracts ; 2. positive law; 3. agreement between
theownera of the land. The civil -law enumerates
five; sources: Agreement, judgment (in partitions),
prescription, testament, statute. Thibaut, (§314, 3t5.)
It seems to us that, in denying all other sources of
servitudes than grant, Mr.Washbum has fallen into
an error which affects injuriously the logical ar
rangement of hie work.. Positive law is especially
important as a source of servitudes, and some of the '
most "common of these rights, such as party walls,
are either originated wholly or greatly modified by
it. But thil3 mistake of our author would be unim
portant had it not led to: the exclusion from his
work of those important servitudes established by
law for the benefit of the public; of that whole class
of cases where the State, by an act of supreme au
thority, confers upon one person, or community, an
easement in the property of another. Such act of the
Legislature is clearly not a grant, at least in. the
usual • sense of the term ; that proceeds from the
owner of the land—this from a third. party. Mr.
'Washburne's doctrine that easements have but a
single source has led him to shut out this interesring
elibject as &whole, though fragmentary notices of it
are scattered through the volume. In other respects,
the arrangement of the work is hardly susceptible of
improvement. The three chapters on easements and
Servitudes of way, easements and servitudes of wa
ter and easements and servitudes other than those
Of . way and water, constituting the body of the
work, discuss, in a copious and perspicuous manner;
the legal doctrines which prevail in regard to those
subjects. Among these, the comparatively modern
subject of Dedication to Public Use, deserves special
mention for its careful treatment, and the very re
- Cent _doctrine.of Rightsin. Subterranean....Waters_is
-elaborately discussed.
Following these is a chapter on, the Loss or Ex
tinguishment of Easements. In this we observe
Some points upon which the common law differs
from the'civil law. The difference in the case of
destruction of the servient - or dominant estate has
been pointed out by Mr. Washburn. Under the
civil lawo restoration of the, subject or object reha
bilitateitihe servitude, (Mackeldey, § 292), which
-
seems not to be the case at common law., So, too,
at common law mere non-user of an easement does not
,extinguish it, but an adverse user - by the owner of
the aervient estate must concur; wheteas by the
civil law a non-user for ten years inter prcesentes, or
for twenty yeare inter absentee amounts to a prescrip
tion against the servitude. (Mackeldey, § 292, cit.
13,0. 3, 34.) By the French code, a nowuser for thirty
years extinguishes the servitude. (Code Civil, art.
- '706.)
,The subject of Repairs to Easements and remedy
for injuries is also well handled. The rule as to re-
Pairs is clearly and correctly stated, though rather
concrete in form. Elvers presents it abstractedly
thus : Servitus in faciendo consistere nequit, except
that when the, enjoyment of the servitude is im
paired by somefact which the owner of the domi
nant estate is prevented by the lacy from - removing,
for the reason: that he might thereby infringe the
rights of the owner of the servient estate, the for
.
.mer may by an action compel the latter to remove
the obstruction himself. (pp. 62-66). And, besides
the servitus aneris ferendi, he extends the exception
to the case where a tree, which stood on the servient
estate, has been blown down'acrose !the way which
constitutes the servitude, and obstructs it. (p. 64-5.)
The mechanical arrangement of the book into pa
ragraphs, with a table of contents fat the head of
each section, is a great convenience !for ready refer
ence, and deserves mention for its novelty.
. conclusion,we would point out, as a signal merit,
:the avoidance of a defect too common . to law
: .writers; we mean letting the eases speak for them
selves, instead of taking the trouble to state the
principle in the author's own words. Legal authors,
of lat e i seein to shirk the responsibility of Baying what
. Was decided, but confine themselves to giving the
words of the judge, leaving the reader to make out,
if he can, what they were intended to express. Now,
the judge decides merely the ease before him; his
thoughts are full of thatpoint with all its attendant
-circumstances, and he often expresses -himself with
out the -limitations and modiacatiora - which he
would have introduced had the principle, which he
is applying to a single instance, been before his mind
in all its bearings and relations. 'Hence, thOugh his
language maybe true of the facts abeut which it is
Employed, it may be only a partial truth, and, there
fore, not true when applied to another state of
facts. To cite an opinion in extenso would be an 'in
tolerable prolixity, since the main body of every
.opinion is composed not of principles, but of the
application of - principles ; to quote - detached sen
tences fromit, while 'Miring an air of accuracy, is in
reality little better than copying the reporter's sylla
bus ; digests may be Made in this way, but not books.
The province of the writer on jurisprudence is to de
duce,from an, opinion, or a series of opinions, the
, principle of law which lies at the foundation.-:Of
ouree, this requires much. laborious thinking, as
'well to extract the idea, as to give its concise and
lucid expression ! And then, too, it is hazardous to
one's reputation to assume to lay - principles.
It is both easier end safer for the writer to - put - in
stances, and shelter himself behind an,:ita ler/p
-ennies/. •
It is not, therefore, surprising that writers on
legal subjeCts should be, in a vast majority of cases,
bookmakers, not authors; and that of the thou
sands of volumes which lighten the pockets and
load the shelves of the profession, hardly a dozen
merit the name of books.

from Mrs. Hales' "Ormond Grosvenor." It struck
me as being a beautiful prophecy, written by the
pen of inspiration, heralding a better time coming,
"when this cruel war is over," peace again beams
upon our now. distracted land, and all will be free.
As an encouragement to our brave aoldiers, and to
our people, I respectfully request its publicatiow,in
your good and patriotic paper.
I am, sir, very respectfully yours

LEMONS -FOR THE SlM—The New York
*72"inies maym—The prompt response to the appeal
recently made for contributions of lemone -with
'which to form acidulated beverages- for the invaltd
soldiers in the Virginia and Washington hospitals,
is another proof of theanxiety of people , generally
- to domhst . they can in the way of patriotic ..and
humane work for the benefit of our army. Over a
:hundred Ibexes have, within the last four days,,been
lorwarded to Washington, freely contributed and
freely:transmitted to the bedsides of the wounded.

be's , atiady • and earnest demand for this +fruit for
.months to come, even, if .our,wounded in the hos

likely to be, fought in June, July and August. It
would perhaps be well if there were a mixed com

The land is well set with timber, and a portion of it is
limestone. The lands stretch along the eastern side and
base of Tussey's Mountain for a distance of ten miles,
and include the Ore seams for the whole distance.
The ore beams are three, viz.: The soft fossil seam,
3% feet in thickness; the large-hematite seam from tin to
twelve feet in thickness; the small hematite seam, 'about
three feet in thickness. •
Limestone, of a very superior quality, is abundant.
The Bedford Railroad cuts through the ore and lime
stone measures at Bloody Run. and both ore and lime
stone can be placed in the cars at once, The Great
Broad Top Coal Fields are only nine miles distant by
railway. Parties who desire to erect Coke Furnaces can
purchase a valuable tract of coal land connected with
the ore lands by rail.

14EAD THE FOLLOWING- - CARE:
FULLY. —At the close of a Course of Lectures, de
livered 'to us. Members . of one of the many. Classes of
PROF. C. H. BOLLES: who has been developing his dis
covery for nearly four yeare, at 1420 WALNUT Street,
in the City of Ph iladelPhia, in the application otGAL
VANISH, MAGNETISM, and other modifications of
BLECTRICITY, the following
_resolutions were unani
mously passed : .7t.
• Resolved,' That, as we h.ave been eye witnesses for
many weeks in the Institution of Prof: Bolles and have
good reason to believe that he has discovered new prin
ciples in the application of the different modifications of
Electricity.to the various s
diseased - osnditionof thehri
man system; and that, in .
the treatment ..of different dis
eases, we have been convinced that, in his' hand, as also
his istutli;l3B,.the application of Electricity is a reliable
therapeutic . ; and that he has taught na a new, rational,.
and , scientilic Philosophy, and we belieqe the only ree ,
liable theory of disease and mode of cure. ' .
- Reso/ved,' That; in our-judgment, the philosophy ad
vanced,- and so clearly. demonstrated in the Course of
Lectures, is - entirely new. and original with. Prof. Bolles,
-ands not known to the Medical Profession, and-that the
great success which has attended his practice in thislcity
is alone the result of his scientific discovery.of Electrical
laws hitherto unknown to man, and - that thcf..many
failures of other men in this city using this mighty agent.
is their-ignorance of the true principles of Electricity. -
Resolved, That we, in duty to suffering, humanity, and
for the great progress of the huraan- race in approxi
mating to acondition othealth and happiness, - coin - mend
the Professor and his theory and practice to the public;•
and bid him God speed,:as we believe his great mission
is one of benevolence . an& mercy. and -calculated, to .
benefit humanity in the only scientific and reliable - way
to a final restoration of health and phyeical happiness:
Resolved. Thatwe tender to Prof. Bolles.,onr,thanks
for his lucid instruction and kind-attention to us, halal,
dually and as a class that he has - . redeemed every,
pledge or assurance made by him, arid that' in parting
from him he has our beet wishes'for his happiness and
prosperity, and we heartily commend him to all scienti
fic - investigators,
.and. also .to the diseased 'of body or
• Also, Resolved, That the proceedings of this meeting
be signed by each member of the elass: and published in
