The two first counts are on promissory notes made by the plaintiff to one Morehouse, and by him assigned to the defendant. The third and fourth counts are upon a guaranty made by the same to the same, and assigned in like manner.\nThere was a demurrer, alleging and pointing out defects in each count, which the court overruled as to the two first counts. [\u00ae 54] The judgment upon the demurrer, is in these words: \u201cIt is ordered by the court, that the said demurrer be overruled as to the first and second counts, in the said declaration, and that the said defendant be ruled to plead to the said counts instanter.\u201d\nThe defendant filed three pleas to those two counts, upon which issues were joined. ' The issues were submittted to the court, and found for the plaintiff, and judgment rendered for \u00a7393.47 damages, and cost of suit.\nThe plaintiff assigns for error, that- the court proceeded to try the cause, and render judgment for the defendant, without deciding. the demurrer to the third and fourth counts.\nThe cases of Nye v. Wright, 2 Scam. 222, and Weatherford v. Wilson, 2 Scam. 256, are in point. This court held it to be erroneous to render final judgment, pending a demurrer, and without disposing of it.\nThe judgment is therefore reversed with costs, and the cause remanded for further proceedings.\nJudgment reversed.",
