   Beardsley, Justice.

Held, that appeals from the circuit judge, under the statute of 1841, were not calendar causes, but were subject to the practice of the special terms, and the party appealing was bound to bring his appeal to a hearing at the next special term after it was taken.

Motion was therefore denied with costs.
