Tacit M0rtEages.

Nafords us infinite pleasure to see
that move has already been made il
the Legislature, to hayt this trace o
ancient barbarism, stricken from The
statute. "A law that has been con
structed by cunning knaves. to de.
fraud minors, under the guise Of pro.
tectipg them. We have but to look
back into the musty records of courts,
to see the various manners and meth
DDS of fraud, that have been pefpetra.
ted in the eyes Of the law, by the force
and power ofthis statute. A law that
has done more towards rending the
ties Of consanguinity--more to break up
the honesty and integrity Of the peo-
pie, than all other laws, ever printed
and bound in calf.
We could not, if We would. point to
cases that have occurred under our
own eyes, by the operation Of this law
cases where the administrator has
defrauded innocent parties, by selling
property belonging by this tacit mort
gage humbug to others. and then at.
ter the lapse eff yers recover the same
for his own use, by the double rascal
ty Of this law, and the aid Of honest,
virtuoua. and Christian Lawyers. No
title can be made under such law,
and man, looks upon man with an eye
Of distrust, that makes the community
little better than thieves.
There are laws in reference to wo-
mans rights, which should be swept
out ofthe way with this tacit mortgage
iniquity; for nothing that could pos
,ibly be originated by the fertile i'm
agination of man, could possibly be
more unjust, than this. The office OF
Recorder Of mortgages under such law,
