nor, first justice of the peace for this parish or
dering him to grant suspensve appeal to the
relator, against whom judgment was rendered by
the said justice of the peace, at the suit Of Robert
Allen. There is nothing to render this peculiarly
interesting, except some of the facts alleged in
the petition for the writ Of nandamus. lizard
alleges that he gave bond, with solvent security,
that the latter fully justified in open court, and
that the act of the judge, in setting aside his ap-
peal, was one of fragrant injustice; moreover,
that q NJ. O'Connor actually took from the pos
session Of the constable the writ of fl. fa issued
in the case and which writ was stayed by consent
Of parties until this mandamus case should be de
cjded, and said NJ. O'Connor actually went in per

doors, and in person directed the seizure to be
made and the property to be removed from tbs
