In its nature, it is no more than a compilation of the defultory and loofe materials, refpeéling powers (which are to be found in our abridgments and books, without reference to principles, with out method, and without fyftem), under particu lar heads, with fuch obfervations as may conduce to the bringing the law on that fubjeél: into one point of view, by a fyfiematical arrangement of the learning to be found refpeéting it.
In extent, 15 goes no further than the confidera tion of the natbre, origin, and properties of powers, and the manner of carrying them into effect, which involves in it the fubjeél: of their legal and equi table executions. Of the confiruétion of the words, confiituting powers, little or nothing is here of fered, becaufe the rules of confiruélion, applicable to powers, are to be found in thofe authors who have already treated on the'fubjeét of ufes.
