The Ohio, &c. Railroad Company v. Ridge.—In error.
    Tuesday, May 21.
   THE act incorporating the Ohio and Indianapolis Railroad Company is an act which operates upon particular persons and private concerns, and is therefore a private act. Such acts are not noticed by the Court, unless their contents are set out in pleading ; a mere reference to them being insufficient. They are regarded in pleading as matters of fact, the existence of which may be denied by plea. 1 Bl. Comm. 86. — Gould’s PI. 56. — Bac. Abr. tit. Stat. F. & L. '
