By the Court,

Sutherland, J.
The general provisions in the Revised Statutes, 2 vol. p. 356, § 27, allowing a plaintiff to reply, and a defendant to rejoin several matters, &c. with leave of the court, are not applicable to the action of replevin. The legislature have enacted every thing in relation to that action in a distinct chapter, and the mode of pleading, &c. is particularly prescribed. 2 R. S. 521, 528, § 38 and 529, § 45. The motion therefore must be denied.
