1Opinion of the Court

The Chancellor.

This cause comes before the • court, from the supreme court, on a writ of error.

From the record it appears, that a judgment has been rendered by default, a writ of error awarded and executed, and 1,400 dollars assessed as damages.

Several errors were assigned ; but as to those relating to form, this court, during the last session, on a motion to remit the record, for the purpose of amending the formal errors, having decided that it was not necessary, because here they could not be admitted as cause for reversing the judgment, has, by that decision, reduced the errors to two.
