Excerpt from Draft Outlines of an International Code
The scheme embraced not only a codification of existing rules of internationallaw, but the suggestion of such modi fications and improvements as the more matured civilization of the present age should seem to require. The purpose was to bring together whatever was good in the present body of public law, to' leave out what seemed obsolete, unprofitable or hurtful, and then to add such new provisions as seemed most desirable. The-code, which the Association would propose, is such an one as should win the commendation of good and wise men, for international regulations, in the in terests of humanity and peace. With the view of aiding in the formation of such a Code, the present work has been um dertaken. What in it is old will generally be found ex plained and justified by the notes what in it is new is sug gested for the consideration of those, who think that much may yet be done by the authority of public law, for the peace and prosperity of the world.

Excerpt from Draft Outlines of an International Code
This work should be taken for what its name imports; the "Draft Outlines of an International Code." It is not put forth as a completed Code, nor yet as the completed outlines of a Code, but as a draft of the outlines. It is intended for suggestion, and is to undergo careful and thorough revision. The present volume is but a part of the whole work. Another will appear in a few months, treating of the modifications in the relations of nations, and of their members, to each other, produced by a state of War.
The history of the undertaking is this: At the meeting of the British Association for the Promotion of Social Science, held at Manchester in September, 1866, I ventured to pro pose the appointment of a committee to prepare and report to the Association the Outlines of an International Code, with the view of having a complete Code formed, after careful revision and amendment, and then presented to the attention of goverments, in the hope of its receiving, at some time, their sanction. The proposition was favorably received, and a committee was appointed, consisting of jurists of different nations. In the distribution of the labor among the members of the committee, a portion was assigned to me.
