'ercise of its discretion with respect to costs, will punish the unnecessary litigation by refusing him the whole ' costs of the suit, as well those incurred after the tender 'as those incurred before."

Part 2 of Volume II, which is recently published, concludes the work; and here it will be found that the learned editor has written several additional chapters under the following heads:-"Chapter XXXIII, On Writs and Orders in the Nature of Injunctions. Chapter XXXVII, On the Payment of Money or Transfer of Stock out of Court. Chapter XXXVIII, On the Production of Documents. Chapter XXXIX, On Petitions for the Appointment of Guardians, and Orders of Maintenance; and Chapter XL, On the Statutory Juris

diction of the Court."

Chapter XXXIII affords valuable information with respect to restraining orders under stat. 5 Vict. c. 5, as well as the practice upon writs of distringas and stop

orders.

The practice upon payment of money into and out of court is stated very much in detail, but not less so than the importance of the subject requires; and this part of the work is worthy of the serious attention not Nor is the only of the junior but senior practitioner. subsequent chapter, upon the difficult subject of the production of documents, less worthy of consideration. Here all the cases bearing upon the circumstances under which the production is granted or refused are discussed, and the principles to be deduced from them clearly enunciated.

The last chapter, On the statutory Jurisdiction, fills up a chasm in books of practice. The editor's remarks in his preface upon this subject are, we believe, perfectly correct. "There has not," he observes, been any "other attempt to treat of it in a connected form; and the fact, that the jurisdiction is exercised upon petitions usually unopposed, has prevented the practice concern'ing it being fully exhibited by reported cases." In this untrodden path Mr. Headlam appears to have received great assistance from the Registrar's-office. The 2nd and 3rd sections point out the cases to which the Charities' and Trustees' Acts respectively apply, and the course to be pursued in giving effect to the pro

visions thereof.

Section 4 contains the necessary information as to the payment into and out of court of money brought under the control of the Court of Chancery by the provisions of the various railway acts. And in section 5 is exhibited much useful and practical information with respect to the jurisdiction of the court over solicitors, as well statutory as otherwise; and the reciprocal rights and liabilities of solicitors and their clients, under the heads of Lien and Taxation of Costs, are discussed.

The miscellaneous statutes are disposed of in the concluding sections.

It remains to be observed, that in the present edition is contained a list of General Orders since 1828, with a reference to those parts of the body of the work where they are to be found noticed. There is also a general index, and not, as in the original work, a separate index to each volume.

It is worthy of remark, that, notwithstanding the numerous decisions which have been pronounced since the publication of the first edition, and which have been the subject of comment in the present edition, and notwithstanding the introduction of the new matter to which we have called attention, by means of an alteration in the arrangement of the letter-press, the work has not increased in bulk, and, on the other hand, the price has considerably decreased.

We trust that our readers will, upon a perusal of the work now under our notice, be satisfied that we have not overrated its merits, and that they will agree with as in thinking that it forms a valuable addition to our legal literature.

DESCENT AMONG COPARCENERS.

TO THE EDITOR OF "THE JURIST." SIR,-The rhetoric of your correspondent J. C. C. has surprised me even more than his logic did. But, as I take no personal interest in the symbol" G. S.," and am not ambitious of sending it down to posterity with the honours of a "Junius" or a "J. C. C.," I shall not atYour correspondent may have tempt any defence. proved against me, "for aught I know," every item in his black list of offences; but these offences have no more to do with the question of descent (of an estate), than have his notions of "propelling" a thing "upwards," and "devolving from a root per stirpes," or his inadvertently calling himself "I," "we," and J. C. C." in the same paper. In his objurgative character J. C. C. needs a remonstrance rather than an answer, and I will borrow for the purpose a form from one who was " of counsel" to Charles II :"Why so fierce and warm, J. C. C. ? Prythee, why so warm?

If to win with wit's not easy,
Can you do't by storm?
Prythee, why so warm?

Why not more astute, conveyancer,
Why not more astute?

Will, when arguing well don't answer,
Railing merely suit?

Why not more astute?

Fie! fie! the law this will not more,-
This cannot shake it:

Unless your crotchet sound you prove,
You cannot make it:
The devil take it!"

To J. C. C. arguing, more respect is due; and, with your permission, I will say a few words (and they shall be as few and as clear as I can make them) on the important point on which I differ from him, and on which to modify his opinion) differs from both of us. J. W. (if, upon consideration, he has not found reason

J. C. C. is unwilling to recognise the vacancy of the inheritance under any circumstances, and argues that the death of an heir before entry causes a new descent. Now, if it is said that the inheritance vests sub modo in an heir before entry, (as it certainly does, for the benefit of creditors, devisees, &c.), I make no objection to the expression, which is at least as allowable, as it is to say, that the fee may vest sub modo pending the contingency of an executory limitation; and I will even grant that the conditional vesting of the inheritance may be called a descent. Thus far the difference between us is merely verbal; but it becomes substantial when J. C. C. contends, that, on the death of a coparcener before entry, there is a new descent of the share of such coparcener only. That this is not so, has, I think, been clearly proved by J. W., whose authorities shew, that, if there is indeed a second descent in the case supposed, it is a descent which overreaches, is not founded on, but, on the contrary, or effaces, the prior conditional descent, as well with respect to the estate of the surviving coparcener, as to that of the deceased. The descents are not successive, but the second is substituted for the first. similar process is familiar in the case of a contingent or executory limitation to a class to be ascertained at a future time, as, a limitation to all the children of A., to take effect in possession at the death of A. Here, each child, as he is born, takes a vested estate, subject to be devested by the birth of a new member of the class; and yet, when all the members are ascertained, so entirely do they take as it were by one act, that their

A

estate is joint, if the limitation contain no words of severance. (2 Stra. 1172; see Fearne, C. R. 312). So, on the death of the owner of an estate, the inheritance vests in the person or persons constituting his heir, the particular ingredients of such heir being capable of change from time to time by deaths and other events, until the inheritance is fixed, and the foundation for a new descent laid, by the entry of the heir for the time being. A much stronger case of conditional descent was recognised by the common law when a sister succeeded to the estate of her only brother, and her inheritance was defeated, even after entry, by the birth of a second brother. In that case, although the person last entitled did not die, her estate was "put in motion" by way of descent.

J. C. C. suggests that I "might consistently argue, that, since the new statute, the inheritance remains vacant until some act of purchase, and that, from the death of the last purchaser to such act of purchase by some one of his successive heirs, is but one descent." I cannot charge this misapprehension of my argument to the account of any obscurity in my language, for I said, "What shall be a descent, and from whom an estate shall descend, are questions which the act leaves untouched;" and the assumption, that the question as to what shall descend is equally unaffected by the statute, was the very basis of my argument, and also, I presume, of that of J. C. C. The language of the statute certainly presents some difficulties, but it will be found, I think, that no other construction can be adopted, without involving consequences which were certainly not intended, and which would be far more mischievous than those from which J. W. has striven to escape. See, for instance, the 5th section.

To conclude, the propositions, and the deductions from them, for which I contend, are these:

1. That, at the common law, on the death of a coparcener before entry, there was either no new descent at all, or, if there were a new descent, it was a descent of the entirety. But, on the death of a coparcener after entry, there was a new descent of her own share only.

2. That the act to amend the law of inheritance has furnished new rules for ascertaining the heir in cases of descent, but has not (except by the enactment in sect. 3, as to devises to an heir, &c.) in any other manner altered the rules of the common law with respect to descents. So that the questions, whether or not there is a descent, what descends, and to whose heir, (or, which is the same thing, from whom), are to be determined without reference to the statute, which only comes into operation when it has been ascertained that a certain thing has descended to the heir of a certain person, and it becomes necessary to know who is such heir.

3. That, as a consequence of the foregoing propositions, if, before the statute, on the death of a coparcener who has not acquired actual seisin, the heirs for the time being of the person last seised would have been entitled to the entirety by descent from such person, so, since the statute, the heirs for the time being of such person would be entitled to the entirety by descent from him; or, more generally, as, on the death of the person last seised, his estate would, before the statute, have descended from him to his heir, so, since the statute, it will do the same; and as, on the death of an heir before entry, there was, before the statute, no descent from him to his heir of his estate or share as such, so, since the statute, there is none. And hence, on the death of one coparcener before the entry of any, the heirs of the person last seised are entitled to the inheritance of the entire estate; and, on the death of one coparcener after the entry of any, there is now, as there always was, a descent from such coparcener of her share alone to her heir. But, in each of the cases supposed,

the person or persons constituting the heir must now be ascertained by rules which are different from those of the common law. G.S.
