Miller, the original plaintiff, appealed.\nUpon certiorari, the judgment and proceedings of the justice should have been quashed or affirmed, from what appeared upon the papers, not upon the admissions of parties in the Circuit Court.\nThe judgment of the Circuit Court of Columbia county is reversed, with instructions to affirm the judgment of the justice of the peace. ,",
