Jefferson Superior Court, \ November Turn), 1§26. ) YOWART vs. ELLIOTT ami TOMLINSON. The principles settled in this case arc. Where Judgement'isgiven in a Justices Court, , V rninz l two defendants, upon a joint o> joint anil -everat note,without dzkrribins either as ‘ scciu ity, and on • pays the amount to the plaintiff; he can- not afterwards use the execution to remunerate "•■imsrtfuul of the property of the other, whom he ‘illesis to hr. the principal, because the judg merit hi/ ■su-h payment is satisfied, and ij indeed such -arson mat or.!it a security, he must bring bis action , „ p j nrl ,/ iC principal and recover the money he has paid This vas a claim case. Tho execution h id been obtained Irani a Justice’s Court, 1) ,- shi: plai-titift’against ^ I0 defendants,and •,v is | j-a id. off bv Jared Tomlinson, one of lire d'-foidants, upon which the following endorsement was made on tlie execution hv tiie sheriff:—“ Received the within f r ,,ni Jared Tomlinson, the security.”— Tmnhnsori dim; levied the execution on a jjoiri-n, as die property of Elliot, which iNvro was claimed iiv Moses Sinq efield. Wben tliis issue came on to be tried, <], • Turn ut objected to the execution, on the g: uio.l that it had been paid off by )ii.- • i ae defendants, and was therefore jin longer u force. i’y tiie Court.—Tho Legislature has provided for securities by ilie 20di and 2:’ i sections of the Justice’s Judiciary.— a. )-ir. 249. 2,52.) The first section m il >■ i/.*vs constables to return, that they !• ive received the raonev from the securi n’, and the second declares how the fact of securiivsliin may he made to appear in the case of jointobligors. Therefore, whenever the party is the security either for st iv of execution or upon appeal, or on i joint an ! several note, or bond, and this fan appears of recor !, the constable may xveil return 'he fact, that he received the money from such security. But in ’.his case 'here is no evidence of record, nor indeed, any where else, of tho fact that Tomlinson was he security, and therefore the return of die <.ffirpr cannot establish a i .ct, windi it fs impossible that he could officially know. This execution, there fore, having been paid off by one of the defendants is satisfied, and can no longer h iv. anv binding force or offer', and the "lew .msl be discharged.—Levy discharg ed" <* uim.r, for Tomlinson. John Scat.EV, for Sinpiefield. RiuintoND Superior Court, ( November Term 1826. j MADDEN vs. AT MULLIN'. The principles settled in this case,arc : l:i scire facias against bail. I lie record and rc- ■rognizan.-:. mud lit substantially set forth. A bail bond may be made payable either to the sh "rif or the plaintiff There is no necessity fir wax or'wrfcr to const i- ute a seal, but (i.. S.j with the words denoting an 1 intention to sea! lie deed, are sufficient. A verdict for the defendant upon the firs! trial do s no! discharge the bail, and therefor- if there he a verdict for the plaintiff on the appeal trial, the appeal bail will be liable. _t bail bond made payable lo the sheriff, must ■noi be assigned to tho, plaintiff, but he may sue on ■it in his own name without an assignment. The talcing out of •' fieri facias instead of a casa, -in the firsi instance does not discharge the. bail. The plaintiff may ink out both a fieri facias jind a ca sa againt the defendant at the same time, juid ihe bail is not thereby discharged ; but both cannot be levied at the same time. This was a scire facias brought by the j jlaintiff against one Nicholas Cashin, who x vas the bail of the defendant, M’Muilin, i a order to charge him for the amount of f, he judgment obtained by the plaintiff a- g ainst the defendant, ,who had failed to ]i ay the debt, or to surrender himself in d; ischargo of his bail, pending this scire Ji icias. Nicholas Cashin died, and his at Iministrator, William Harper,was made a party defendant. , ■ . To this scire faciasSeveral pleas were fil ed, and arc in substance'as follows :— 1st. That tbe bond declared on is not his deed. 2d. That there is no such record as that mentioned in the writ of scire fa cias. 3d. That there is no seal to the bond, and no legal obligee, the bond being Tiuide payable to the sheriff instead of the plaintiff’. 4th. That the plaintiff materi ally altered his declaration after the ori ginal action was brought, and after the bond was entered into by the defendant’s intestate. 5th. That on the first trial a j verdict was rendered for the defendant,! whereby tbe bail was discharged. 6th. j That the bond was never delivered. 7th..! That the bond has not been assigned by ; .the sheriff, to the plaintiff’. 8th. That the •plamtifTsued out a fieri facias against the j property of the defendant, instead of a ca sa~ against his person, and that therefore the bail is discharged ; and 9tb. That before the roturn of the ft. (/<z?tbe plairitiff sued out a rasa, and both writs were in the sheriff's hands at the same time, and that thereby the bail is discharged. These pleas were argued by Mr. Flour noy, Mr. Reid, and Mr. Olive, for the plaintiff’, and by Mr. Walker and Mr. Wilde, for the defendant. Many autho rities were'cited on each side, which it is unnecessary to mention here, as they are generally noticed in Ipc decision of the Court. By the Court.—The first and sixth pieas arc to tho Country—-the second .plea is nul tiel record, and if supported would be good. But I have compared the record with tfip writ of scire facias, and although ts of the record not re cited in die writ, yet it is substantially re- ) cited, and all the material parts set forth, j so that it cannot be mistaken. The bond, j or recognizance is in substance stated, j then the judgment is set forth, and finally j it is alleged that the principal has not paid ! the debt or damages recovered, nor ren- j dcred liimself to the sheriff, and concludes j by requiring the sheriff to make these ! facts known to the bail, and to require him i to appear, &c. &c.: and this is sufficient. (See 2 Tidd. Prac. 997.) 3d. The third plea is, that there is no; seal, or legal obligee to the bond. It has j been often decided.by this Court, that the ; intention of,the obligor is to be taken into j view, and .therefore if (as in this case) lie says “ sealed with my seal,” or other j words importing his intention to seal the j instrument, and (l. s.) is attached to his j name, it will be considered equivalent to j a seal with wax or wafer. As regards the ! bond having been made payable to the j sheriff, instead of the plaintiff, I am of opinion it is good, because the statute; does not prescribe tho form of the bond nor say to whom it shall be made paya ble ; but only declares that “ the sheriff’| or other officer shall take a bond with one j or more sureties for double the stint sworn ! to, and shall return such bond with tbe | petition and process;” (Prin. Dig. 20S,)! and the same act further declares, that; such bond shall be liable to the recovery of the plaintiff-—(Ibid. 209- See Sell. Dig. ^ 329, in note, 2 Ilall Law Jour. 456. 4th. Tiie fourthrplea is, that the plain tiff materially altered his declaration after the defendant had ben arrested, and given bail, and that therefore the bail is dis charged. This plea might perhaps pre vail, if indeed, the plaintiff had so changed his declaration as to have made a different action, by declaring in a different form and for a different cause of action from that exoressed and set forth in the process and affidavit to hold to bail. (2d ^'dd. Prac. 903.) But this is not the fact here, for the amendment to the declaration does not alter tho form or cause of action, but only sets it forth with more clearness and ; certainty, and it is still the same cause of . action. This p'lea then cannot be sus- j tained. 5th. The fifili plea is, that a verdict) was rendered for tbe defendant, M’Muilin, j on the first trial, whereby the bail is dis- ! charged. No authority has been produc- j ed to support this plea, and I presume i none can be, because, an appeal from one ; Jurv to another, as authorized by our law, j is unknown to the English law ; and such j appeal is a continuation of the same j cause, which is a matter of rightof either | party, and this was known to the bail ' when he entered into the bond. In En gland a writ of error is allowed, and upon j such, writ being brought, the bail is not i discharged. (2 Com. Dig. 44.) 7th. The seventh plea is, that the bond i has not been assigned bv the Sheriff to! the plaintiff’. This is not necessary be- i cause it is not a bond taken under the j statute 25 Hen. 6 cb. 9- for that statute i is not in.force here, and therefore, that sec-j tion of the statute 4 Ann. ch. 16 which ' requires bail bonds to be assigned by the i Sheriff is also riot in force. See .Sc.h. j Dig, 329 in note. This bond is taken under our own statute, Prince Dig. 20S. which, by express words of that act is made liable to the recovery of the plain tiff, and by writ of Scire facias. Ibid. 8th. The eighth plea is, that the plain tiff took out a fieri, facias instead of a ca sa, and that therefore the bail isdischarg- ed. Mr. Sellon in his practice declares that the taking out of a fi fa is an absolute discharge of the bail, 2 Sellon Prac. 44. but he cites no authority for his opinion, and it is-, certainly not supported by rea son. No injury is thereby done to the bail, but on the contrary, it is an attempt on the part of the plaintiff’to do him a ser vice* because whatever amount may be made under such ft fa, lessens that much the liability of the bail. If then instead of producing injury, it may ope rate as a benefit to the bail, there is no reason for saying that such act of the plaintiff shall discharge the bail, and it was held by.Chief Justice Kent, in the case of Olcott vs. Silley, (4 John rep 407) that sucli act of the plaintiff does net dis- j charge the bail. This plea is, therefore j overruled. 9th. The ninth and last plea is, that the proceedings on the part of the plaintiff af- j ter judgement, were irregular, for as much j as he took out both a ft fa and ca sa,. and both were out and in the Sheriff’s hands at one and the same time, whereby the bail is discharged. I can find no authority ip support of this plea, and I am disposed to believe that the true and rational doc trine is, that both executions may be sued out at the same or different times, but that only one can be executed (8 Mod 302 2‘Benn. Rep. 230—4 Bos. and Pull 134.) and if the lands 'and, .goods be not suffi cient to pay the debt, then the body may be taken (2 Bac. Ab. 718 in note.) In the case now under consideration both ex ecutions were out at tbe same time, but neither has beep served. Nulla bona is returned upon one, and non est inventus, upon the other.' No injury or injustice has been done to the bail by the acts of the plaintiff—there is .no - positive law to discharge him, and the principles of jus tice, as’well ns lawdeclarehim liable. , The pleas to the court are therefore all overruled, and* the defendant must go to the jury with his pleas to the country.* PLEAS OVERRULED. Flock soy, Reid, Olive, for plaintiff. Walker, Wilde, for defendant. * The .defendant afterwards abandoned his pleas to jhe country, and thti plaintiff took juug- mentupon tbe Scire facias. SELECTION FOR SATURDAY. The Universe may be c.onsidered as the palace in which the Deity resides; and the Earth as one of its appartments, In this, all the meaner races of animated na ture -mechanically obey him, and stand ready to execute his commands without hesitation. Man alone is found refractory; he is the only being endued with the power of contradicting these mandates.— The Deity was pleased to exert superior power in creating him a superior being; a being endued with a choice of good and evil and capable, in some measure, of co operating with his own intentions. Man, therefore, may be considered as a limited creature enduced with powers imi tative of those residing in the Deity.— He is thrown into a world that stands in need of his help, and he has been granted a powerof producing harmony from par tial confusion. IT, therefore, we consider the earth as allotted for our habitation, we shall find that much has been given us to enjoy, and much to amend; that we have ample rea sons for our gratitude, and many for our industry. In those great outlines of Na ture, to which art cannot reach, and where our greatest efforts must have been ineffec tual, God himself has finished every thing with amazing grandeur and beauty. Our beneficicnt Father has considered these parts of Nature as peculiarly bis own; as parts which no creature could have skill or strength to amend; and ho has there fore, made them incapable of alteration, or of more perfect regularity. Astrono mers, who are best skilled in the symme try of systems, can find nothing there that they can alter for the better. God made these perfect, because no subordinate be ing could correct their defects. When, therefore, we survey Nature on tliiss.de, nothing, can be more splendid, more amazing. We there behold a De ity.residing in the midst of a Universe, infinitely extended every way, animating all, and cheering the vacuity with his pres ence/ We behold an immense and and shapeless mass of matter, formed into worlds by his power, and dispersed at in tervals, to where even the imagination can not travel! In this great theatre of his glory, a thousand suns, like nir own, ani mate their respective systems, appearing and vanishing at the divine command. We behold our bright luminary, fixed in tiie centre of its system, wheeling its planets in time-proportioned distances, and at once dispensing light, heat, and action.— Tho Earth also is seen with its twofold motion ; producing, by one, the change of seasons; and by the other the grateful vi cissitudes of day and night. W T ith what silent magnificence is all this performed ! with what seeming case! The works of art arc exerted with interrupted force, and their noisy 7 progress discovers the obstruc tions they receive; but the Earth, with a silent, steady rotation, successively pres ents every part of its bosom to the sun, at once imbibing nourishment and light from tha< parent of vegetation and fertility. But not only provisions of heat and light are-thus supplied; the whole surface of the earth is covered with a transparent atmosphere that turns with its motion, and guards it from external injury. The rays of the sun are thus broken into a general warmth,and while the surface is assisted, a gentle heat is produced in the bowels of the earth; which contributes to cover it with Verdure. Waters also are supplied in healthful abundance, to support life, and to,a£sis£» vegetation. Fountains rise to diversify the prospect, and give a current to the stream. §eas extend from one continent to the other, replenished with animals that maybe turned to human sup port, and also serving to enrich the earth with sufficiency of vapour. Breezes fly along the surface of the fields to promote health and vegetation. The coolfiess of the evening invites.to rest, and the fresh ness of the morniDg renews for labor. Such are the delights of the habitation that has been assigned to man : Without any one cf these, lie must have been wretched; and none of these could his own industry have supplied. But while many of his wants are thus kindly furnish ed, on the one hand, there are number less inconveniences to excite his industry on the other. This habitation, though provided with all the conveniences of air, pasturage, and water is but a desert place witfiout human cultivation. The lowest animal finds more conveniences in the wilds of nature, than he who boasts liimself their lord. The whirl wind, the inundation, and all tiie as perities of the air, peculiarly terrible to man, who knows their consequences, and, at a distance, dreads their approach. The earth itself, where human art ha£ not pervaded, puts on a frightful gloomy ap pearance. The forests are dark and tan gled; the meadows are overgrown with rank weeds; and the brooks stray \vithputa determined channel. Nature, that lias beeti kind to every lower order of beings seems to have been negligent with rejard to him; to the. savage uncontriviug nan, the earth is an abode of desolatiou, wlere his shelter is in sufficient, & his food are- carious. A world thus furnished with advantages on one side, aud inconveniences on the other, is the proper abode of reason, ind the fittest to exercise the industry of a free and thinking creature. , These evils, which art can remedy, and .prescience, guard against, are proper & call for the exertion of his faculties; and they tend still more to assimilate Inin to bis Crea tor. God beholds, with pleasure, that je- ing which he has made, converting (he wretchedness of his naturul situation info a theatre of triumph; bringing all the head long tribes of nature mto subjection to his will; and producing that order and unifor mity 7 upon earth, of which his own heaven ly fabric is so bright an example.
