One difficulty with against which the powers of Honourable
Gentlemen have had to struggle contend with, and over which they

have not always been victorious is that which attends

the distinguishing the two correlative and unhappily

for the public us as well as for them but too closely intimately connected

objects – viz. the officer and the office.

Entities of the real class and entities of the fictitious

class are objects in themselves in a considerable degree considerably different and

yet in the conceptions or at any rate in the language of mankind

in practice as found them but too frequently confounded.

By eye has courage to endure the sight Confluence of the sort may be seen by in the eye on very delicate ground

and such is the case here.

Amont real entities The distinction between a person and a thing is a

distinction of which Mr Justice Blackstone has professed

himself to be aware: but having copied it from one of the scribes

of Justinian Justinian's scribes, instead of looking for in the nature of the

case, the view he takes of it is unfortunately none of

the clearest. That a person is that sort of being which who

is capable of possessing rights, and of as well as making a good

or bad use of them, or a truth that stands beyond placed above

dispute: and if this would have contented the learned

Commentator, there would have been neither need nor occasion

for mentioning him here. But not content with

the allotment which in one of his books he has made of

rights to persons, he adds another book in which with

equal liberality he makes one allowance and in the same

shape to things. The notions suited charge so well

"That which was which he could not tell." In this case Such as between things

and things was the case with Sir Hudibras: and in this same case such as between

things and persons was the case with Sir William Blackstone.
