LAW INTELLIGENg.

VICE CHANCELLOR'S COURT. Mum IR
THOMAS •. THOMAS.

Mr. HART stated this cause to the• Court. It turned
on the construction of a will, and came before the
Court in rather a singuaf manner. The testator in the
will in question had devised to his wife the annual in-
terest, rent, and profits, arising out of the whole of his
real and personal property, to her use during her-life;
or till she should marry. At her death,. orin case she'
should mart y, whenever the first of these events should'
take place, he then devised,•"" all his personal and real
estate to his next of kin, to be divided among them,
according to the Stitute of Distribution in tbat. cas:!
made and provided." On this will these arose tro
questions—first, whether this "as a devise of the. real
estate? and if it was not, whether the heir-at-law was
to be considered merely as a trustee for the benefit
of the next of kin ? To determine the former ques-
tion, a case was demanded by the heir-at-law, arid sent
down to the Court of king's &melt for its opinion, and
it Was held by three of the Judges, the Losd Chief
Justice being absent, that these was no devise of the
real estate.

H s Hunoua expressed his surprise that such a case
should have been sent :or tie opinion of a Coma of Law,
as, if it had been tautly presented La his wind, he could
not have bad a doubt u:)on it.-
Mr. BLUNDELL, Mr. SPENCE, and M. WiLsosr, now
addressed the Court on tf e second question, arguing
from the words of the testator, that it was Tate clear
thit the testator intended that somehow or other there
should be a distribution of his propeity, and that it Was
equally clear, from the words "all his real and per-
sonal property," that he intended this distribution to
embrace both his real and pe:sonal estate.
His Hottouti, who had been looking over the raisin
of the arguments at law now said that he perceived very
clearly shy the Ca had been sent for the opinion of a
Court of Common Law. The only point was wheiher
the words made use of by the testator described with
sufficient accuracy the persons who were to take? It
was quite clear:that there was a gift; but had the testa-
toe distinctly described who were to be the objects of
it ? The Judges of the Court of King's 13-:nch thought
not, and hi that opinion his Honour rather concurred.
Tke testator said all his real and persOnel property
should be devised according to the Statute of D.striba.
tioa in that ease made and prev.ded," Now there was.
,no Statute for the dis-ribution of real property, and
consequently the persons whom the testator had in-
tended to take under this gift could not be ascertained.
The red property must tht retro e go to the heir•at-law,
and the only remaining que-tion was, how the pets otal
pioperty.• as to be diktributeJ ?
Mr. HART, interrupting the Court, said, it would not
be necessary to gh int:, that question, as, in point of tact,
there was no personal prcp.rty for distribution.

said, I teed, at
the child. I per-
ceived ne marks-of 'eternal injury. The internal coat
stomach was inflamed to a at degree, and
Is places lacerated. The internal surface of the
stomach was lined with a thick layer of mucus, streak-
ed in some places with blood. Within the stomach
was about fisur ounces of a darkish coloured quid, which
/radii sweetish taste and a peculiar steal. Interspersed
in this fluid was a considerable no ober of gt eta-coloured
transparent, and brittle particles, which I have no doubt
were glom. I believe the it.flarnancion and laceration
of the stomach were occasioned by there particles, and-I
have no doubt that they were the cause of the child's
death. The intestines were healthy, but there was a
small stone in one of the kidneys. The child was small
and emaciated. I have with me the particles of 14111,s
found in the stomach. I have not submitted it to ami
cro‘cope. The stomach had brown sugar in it; a very
coarse brown sugar, such as is given to the infants of
the poor.
Mr. Inters' GA IItROW stated, that he felt the greatest
difficulty in this case. It appeared that the depositing*
of the prisoners were both taken upon oaths As such,
they were not evidence against the prisoners; and ca
the case had never occurred before, he Was nil suit
that as an account sworn by the prisoners ott the nao
ment might not be evidence.for them.
The. Learned JUDOS directed a cup, which contained
the supposed particles of glass, tq be handed to the
Jury. It was a small quantity of ditty brown matter,
adhering to the bottom of the cup, and in it were many
gritty particles, like sand, which glittered in a honor-
able light.
Mr. Hebb, in his crosseexaminatihn, said, coarse sugar
is manufactured in a very rough way in die Welt In-
dies. It is possible that a glass bottle might be broken
into it in the m inufacture. If a glass bottle had been
broken in the manufacture, it would hirdly he broken
into such small pieces, bat it might, if it went through
the sugar mill.
Esamined by the. Learned BARON—I have heard of
a man in this city, that if yore will give him the con-
tents of a glass, he will swallow the glass alter them.
I infer from that that glass may be taken into the sto-
mach with impunity ; if magnesia is taken into the
stomach for a length of time, I don't know that it will
lie there.

Mr. Baron GAnnow—lf you never saw it, I can tell
you, of my own knowledge, that there was an instance
of a Gentleman who had in his stomach a solid•snb-
stance, composed of magnesia and fish-bones, wad what
was more singular, a portion of wood, and this was
drawn through before it could be taken out. This had
been lying there for yea's.
Examination resumed—Mr. Sauvage swallowed par-
rides of glass of aline in length. A line is a twelfth
pan of as inch. 1 have read tbat be repeated the ex-
periment. That Gentleman states that glass may be
taken in'o the stomach without danger. .
Examined by the Learned BARON.—This child was
emaciated, and its emaciation mu.t•have been coming
on for some length of time.

The stomach was produced; k was dried and looked
like a riece of old pat chment.
Mr. Pierpoint .sun a surgeon. I have ex-
amined the contents of the cup; it comists of glass and
brown sligar.-,(Tbis Geatiearan poured Isaias water
into the cip, a td stated that there were about 400 or
200 pie:es of powdered glass). My opinion respecting
Ppowdered glass coincides will -that of Mr. Hebb.
owdered glass does not produce mischief, eacept by
I lace' ation. It might injuTe the stomach by the con-
stant action. I fear that the quantity produced might
.produce death in a child; but on this I must speak
w.th gicat caution.
Examined by the Learned BARON-,Many things
will lodie in the stomach. If the glass, being indi-
gestible, had been. taken a little at a time eves,' day, it
might teina;n, and the digestible part of its food pass
off. If a child was is a very emaciated stifle, and hal
a diseased kidney, I would not say that the glass twist
necessarily produce cloth. tinder all the circumstance,.
I st-ould mit like to say the glass killed the child.
Mr. Baron Gastaow--.Mr.-Godson„ 1 would Row
ask you, have you any evidence to bring these women;
or ticker of them, in colitact with powdered glass?
Mr. Goa:sox—Certainly not, my Lord; • search was
made. and no powdered glass could be fogad.
Mr. Baron GARROW observed, that if the cue
proceeded. it would be utterly impossible to asta.
bush the guilt of tht pri.oners. It could not be
'hewn that t! e glass was administered by them, ere'
either of them. He did not wish to say any tbingow.

Gentleman, of whom they had all heard, Mr. Burger,,
of the Strand; that Gentleman purchased a quantity
of Cayenne pepper ; he thought it was not eery goad,
and he had it examined, when it tat ned out that it was
nothing but brick dust, with just enough of pepper in It
to makes person's tongue smart if he tasted, it.
