DECISION. j In Talbot Superior Court March Term ’S4S Lawson B. McKee, ) Richard Barnes de- { Attachment & claim fendnmin nnach- or * h ; proper.y at mcnt ami John \ * acl,e,h Barnes claimant. J In this rase ;trt attachmerit was Irvird at the instance of Lawson B McKee Pi'll. on a negro slave as the property of Richard Baines defendant, returnable to this court, and jugdement recovered thereon, there be ing a defaitlt of appearance of the defen dant either by putting in special Bail or giving Bond, and there being no claims In terposed by any person, not a party to such attachment. And the Sheriff being about to sell the propelty le.vied oil, and against which the judgment had been obtained for and towards the satisfaction of the Pl'ffs. judgment In the like manner as if the same had been taken under Esc-cution ; and befote the sale John Barnes inteposed a claim for the propetty, which claim upon the motion of PHI’S, counsel wasordetetl to be dismiss ed ; and upon which the claimant moved • Rule Nisi, calling on the PHI. to shew cause why the case should not be reinstated, and the claim be permitted to proceed to trial. By the Statutes of ihlgJStato passed in Feb. 18th 1799, and the subsequent amend ments thereto, provision is made for the recovery of debts when thA same cannot be done by Ihe ordinaty proce* of Law. And in certain cases when the oldinary process of Law cannot be served a otebtort an at tachment issues against the JEsla/e of the debtor or so much as shall he of sufficient value to satisfy the (credliors)\jl‘ffs. de mand, the attachment is directed (k all and singular the Sheriffs and this State. And the same must be serd by the Sheriff of the county where the I j may be found or his deputy or any ble, whose duty it shall he to levy /hesame upon the Estate, botli real personal, of such debtor, wherever the s JpV may be found; and snail be I the officer thus serving and licly at the Court House at leastdays before the setting of the Court to the same is made returnable. The spiuie pro vides that all goods and chatlehvlanHs and tenements, shall be replevia|®by appeal - ance, and putting in or by the defendant giving bond lo ap pear at the Court to wliicli tne attachment is returnable to abide by and perform the order and judgment of the Coutt. See Prince’s digest 31 and 32—2nd sec. ol the act. The 3rd sec. of the act of 1799, Princes <2, provides that “If any attachment shall be returned, executed, and the property at tached shall be replevied as aforesaid the subsequent proceedings thereon shall be rlie same ason original process against the body of the defendant, where there is a de fault of appearance: “and all such goods Atand chattels, lands and tenements not repte- Bjoieri, shall after the pl’rt has established his RQifetiiaml be by order if the Court soli and disp isod of for and towards the satisfaction of the Pl’ffsjudgmenl in like man ter as if I the same had been taken under execution. The act of 1799 is amended by the act of I OSnd Nov 1814, which provides that wlteie personal property has been leved on by at tachment and claimed by any person not a parly to such attachment, that they shall by themselves, their agent or attorney muke oath to the property ; and the officer levying shall return the fact of such claim to the , Court to which the attachment shall be mnde returnable (except by act 30th Dec. 1828, where the same is levied on lands ot negroes by attachments returnable ‘o a jus i tires Court, then if land lo *he next Sttperi ’ or Court, if negroes to the next Inferior or Superior Courts,) and the Court shall cause anti issue to he made between the Plaintiff In attachment and claimant and the right of property lobe decided on by a Jury at the same term, (that is the appearance term of the attachment) unless suffi.ient cause he shown to induce the Court to continue the same. It will be seen that the preceding con tains the otditinry provisions lor proceedings bad in cases of attachments. That it is a proceeding by Statute against the. property | of the debtor, and not against the person, that it is a recovery against tlife properly of the debtor, ami not against the person, and that after judgment had by a plaintifl :u attachment against the propeily levied on by the attachmetr, there ‘s no provision at law for the interposition of any claim to the Same by any person not a party to the at tachment. The interposition of claims to property levied on, and tin trial of the right of pro perly arc provisions alone created by stat ute, and does not exist at Common Law. .And the statute only provides for claims in cases where property is levied on by Execu tioner when levied on by attachment, and when about to be sold by Executors or ad ministrators; as the property of their testa tor on intestate, the time ami the maniietof making the same in each case, is the pe culiar provision of the statute nod not other wise. an attachment in the manner preced ing as pointed put, and there is no provision otherwise, |SK It is insisted on by those who entertain a different opinion, and by counsel in sup port of this motion, that Execution always issue from a judgment on an attachment, and that there must be a levy of the Execu tion; 4 o that the claimant by virtue there of may avail himself of the benefits of the actoflS Dec. 1821, See Prince 448, which provides for the interposition ofclninis where property is levied on by Execution. But to shew this ground is wholly unten able, the attachment when levied, has per formed oneoftbc purposes of an execution, it is indeed the authority of the law for the seizing and holding the property ; and the properily levied otj is considered in custodia legis, and so remain unless claimed, until judgment is rendered againstjbe same, up on the Plaintiffs having esttMfehed his de mand which being done,statute then provides that 1 ‘till suck goods and eliatteh lands ami tenements not replevied shall after the ‘’ plaintiff has established his demand “be by order of the Court sold and disposed “of for and towaids the satisfaction of the “plaintiffs judgment in like manner, as if the same had been taken under execution.” Thus itwillbc seen that tho order of the Court being the authority of the officer to sell, the necessity for an execution in no instance exists, and the issuing one would be wholly tiseless, what is the execution to issue lor to seize the property. The original attach ment is a warrant of authority for that purpose and is authority to keep the same, and the order of the Court, the authority to sell, but. the statute itself forbids the idea of (he is suing of an execution, by declaring that the properly shall be sold in like manner as if the same had been taken under execution, but if the claim could be interposed alter judgment and order to sell, what would be the consequence, whyffthe property should turn out not to be subject upon what would the plaintiffs judgment rest. When would the officers of the court recover their costs, not from the Haiutiffs beanusp he liad not been either canbr had we. discontinued his suit, but had same to jttdg- j ment judgment would be > and set altltough there ex | isted no legal cariß foWhe same, the costs could not be recovered ofdefendan*, be-1 cause lie womkl be in uo \iise pi ivy to it. There \voulßbo mote apparent reason in behalf of litis motion if the statute authoris ing ptoceedings in attachments had not made ample provisions for the benefit of claimants. And that they may be advised of the levy, the levying officer is bound to give notice by advertising all his actings thereon at the Coutt House 30 days befote the c'oiitl to which the same is returnable that third persons or the defendants either ttfay replevy the propetfy by claimants claiming, or defendants either appearing or giving security in the terms by statute pre set ibed ; and that Plaintiffs shall not be sub jected to the difficulty above suggested if claims could be interposed alter judgment the statute provides that the right of proper ty when claimed shall be tried, at the first tetm of the colirt to which the attachment is made returnable, unless sufficient cause be shown to induce the cotlrt id continue the same. Now although the plaimiff'may nevet be enabled to establish any demand against the defendant, here is a provision for the trial of the right of prophity. And it is ob vious that it was never contemplated by the law, that after property was determined to be subject by permitting the Plaintiff to es tablish his demand and his judg ment against the property levied on that then the same could be set aside in this lawless manner. I believe I have shown that an Execution cannot issue against the defendant in at tachinenMKherc properly, lias been seized by attaeflrent in accordance with the stat ute letter or spirit. I am called on to eaplain the reason why the practice of iss Jig executions after judgment has been lid and for lire interposition ofelaims. If tliJbatute was ddjjbtfi.l. and a practice had Jeen obtained under it different horn the#pinion I might entertain, 1 would con form the practice, but if a practice was oUlained which is in the face and teeth of Ms Statute, it is my duty to change it Mo wever, thesame maybe coteniperaneous Jtvilli the statuleStself. lamat a los6 to de- Itermine what has been the ptactice, I have • always acted upon the views that I now Knteriain, although I have frequently known vie practice otherwise. It is clear that if ik practice is as has been insisted upon by tlVtlaiirlants counsel in the case, that it is wilLt any warrant or nutliotity of law, of law and would frequently stand hv < n lo sm-ccs.sf.illy prosecut ing to judgment, and then terposedwPßraim and destroy such rights as he had thus laboriously and expensively acquired. and But in conclusion if the statute did not set tle this question. I am inclined to think the claimant is precluded even under the com mon law rules. Since the argument had in this case I have been led to examine the common Law ns to the effect of a judgment in rem. And Mr. Slarkie in his work on evi dence lavs down as a text the following rules viz : •• Upon the same principles, adjudica tions in the courts of admiralty whether Domestic or Foreign Upon prize queslions, being decisions of an exclusive jurisdiction operating in view, are conclusive evidence upon tlienialter which they docide, when the same points arise incidentally tn other coutts ; whether they involve questions as to right of property, as in action of Trover, Sic. ; see Slnrkie’s tiv. Ist. vol. 23a. And the judgment thus rendered is conclusive unless it can be impeached oh thegfotlnd of Fraud and collusion, Mr. Stuikie says, is admissible in Evidence against one who was neither a party nor privy, to it, being “a di “rcet final and conclusive determination of •‘a court of competent jurisdiction upon the subject matter, Ac., See Ist vol. Slarkie Evi. page24l. The same doctrine is re cognized in the Supreme Coutt oftlie Uni ted States in the ease of Cvou-dson & Cos. vs Leonard, see 4th Cranch 434. Upon a full examination of this case, ami after hearing able counsel at length in behalf of this application, 1 am satis fied that the order had in this case dis missing the claim was in conformity to Law and thttfijhe same ought not to he re instated. Therefore, let the tide be dis charged. JOSEPH STUEtiIS, Judge, Towns and Smith, Jones, Benning and Junes Attorneys pro; Claimant. Hill and Owens Attorneys pro. Plaintiff’ , in attachment. f **■ “ THE PRESS. t , Mr. Cofdoza takes a graceful leave of the j editorial chair of the Charleston (S. C.) Pat | riot, which he has occupied with good effect . for many years. In the courfC of his remarks) Mr. C. uses the following language ! “But however high may be the moral ac countability of its conductors, the manners of . the community by which it is sustained, give form and pressure, tone and coloring, to its opinions. It is the image of the embodied | sentiment of the social body of which it is the offspring, and which becomes its constant I nursing mother. Now, who will deny that the example of decorum presented by the dailv press ol Charleston, is the reflection of - its highly cultivated sense of social proprie ty; that the absence of coarseness front its controversies is ihe fruit of'general refine- 1 ment ; that in the exclusion of calumnious I personality front its columns, even in the ex-1 cess of party rage and excitement, who will j tail to find the evidence of that forbearan l e which is at once the sign of charity, and the token of polished intercoutse. Charleston may, therefore, feel proud of her Press,-while that Piets owes to her all the elevation de rived from the observance of rules ofcourte-* sy, and principle* of honorable political war fare.;’ There is much truth int the above ex'racl —truth as it tegards the general remark upon the influence and operation of the pub lic press, and< also, as it regards the tone and character of the Charleston press in par ticular. No greater curse can befal a community, than the establishment in its rnfdst of a ve nal press, or the advent of an editor who, regardless of the importance of his position, is seeking to disturb the public mind, by pro voking excitements fur the 6ake of pecunia ry advantages, or temporary personal conse quence that may accrue to him ; who uses or lends his columns 10 gratify personal ma lice, and seeks to establish himself, and bis interests, upon the ruins of other persons in terests or reputation. There is a steadiness of purpose, a constant presentation, and sub dued, but almost irresistible tone of advoca cy, of a cause whielt a true editor manifests, n hicb, with the observing, are proof of hearti ness in the cause, and the token and means of success ; while the selfish partisan is only noticable at the moment when some event is at band, and is then most conspicuous in seizing upon some position that shall give permanence to bis zeal, and connect him di rectly with the success which, if his injudi cious action does not prevent, will come in spile of his selfish, his officious meddling. Time favors those who show tiieir respect for public virtue, and general propriety. At times they may softer from a refusal to share in the excesses of the selfish, ur the honest zealot, but they may safely trust to the sober second thought of the judicious, for a re-es tabiishmcut in all that we valued in what was withheld.
