Tbe appeal is in forma pauperis, and tbe affidavit is fatally defective, in tbat it does not contain tbe averment required by tbe first proviso in Eevisal, sec. 597, tbat tbe appellant \u201cis advised by counsel learned in tbe law tbat there is error, in matter of law, in tbe decision of tbe Superior Court.\u201d\nGiving bond on appeal, or tbe granting leave to appeal without bond, are jurisdictional, and, unless tbe statute is complied with, tbe appeal is not in this Court, and we can take no cognizance of tbe case, except to dismiss it from our docket. It has been always held tbat if tbe affidavit to procure an appeal in forma pauperis is defective, it is not a matter of discretion with tbe court, but the appellee can have the appeal dismissed as a matter of right.
