From this brief review of the leading
cases and authoritiek on the snbject, It man
ifestly oppeara that chauiperty is an effeoce

uio, not oii' in xaiigunitt, o. tu auiito,
not ail, the States ot this t nion, wtnen ue
rivo their unwritten taw irom me same
source. It appears further, that every con
tract or agreement made, into which chapv
perty enters as a oonsidei ation, is illegal
and "void. Hence we conclude that the
same doctrine prevail in this State, where
. t . i
it la expressly anaeted "tha, all nuoh parta
of the comnton law as were bcretoforo la

and the form of government tnirelh t-dab-lishcd,
and which has not been othmvis

The result of our argument i.' that the

perideucyof the luU forthe tlavc.meiv.
tioned in t(tc pleading, whereby the saitt
defendant was to have one-half of the said

founded uiMin the consideration of chanv ;
