A proceeding to enforce a forfeited recognizance or bond is a civil proceeding.

The record in this case was filed in this court after the- 1st day of January, 1877.

It contains no assignment of errors, and, under the rule of this court adopted June 28,- 1877, it should not have been docketed.

Submission set aside, and cause stricken from the docket.
