ACT OF SEDERUNT ANENT HUGGERS, A FRAGMENT FOUND IN THE LAIGH PARLIAMENT HOUSE. The feeding of writers, by the Members of the Faculty of Advocates, with the view, in return, of obtaining fees, seems, at a very early date, to have excited the just indignation of the Senators of the College of Justice, and the following Act of Sederunt was framed, to put down so seductive a mode of enlisting the sympathies of the agent through the medium of his stomach. The original, which has been brought to light by the indefatigable exertions of the Record Commission, is in a very decayed condition, and wants a few lines at the end. It is now for the first time printed, but it will be undoubtedly included in the projected abridgement of the Acts of Sederunt. 1584.

XXXIII. RES JUDICATA. (A CASE NOT YET REPORTED.) TUNE-Derry Down. The case of Southgates and Mandatory against Montgomerie, which the reader will find reported in Dunlop, Murray, and Bell's Court of Session Cases, vol. 15, p. 507, was the foundation of the ensuing Jeu D'esprit. The question at issue was whether a Foreign judgment was to be held as res judicata, or whether it could be impeached on cause shewn; and after considering the point in cases, and hearing counsel at great length, it was decided that such decree affords only prima facie evidence of the truth and justice of the claim, and that it may be impugned on cause shewn. “With your Lordship's permission, I * now have to state a "Remarkable question of Res Judicata; “ And if more than the usual noise I should make, "Twill be all for the general principle's sake Sing down, down, down, derry down. "The Pursuer (one Southgate) my Lord, d'ye see, ""Tis a question, my Lord, that is fit to inspire ""Tis dreadful to think what the evils might be * Douglas Cheape, Esq.

Sing down, &c. "For the doctrine of ERSKINE we care not a straw, "For ours is a case for a far higher Law; 66 'By the Law both of Rome and of Nations and Natur,' "Ev'ry Cockney must see it's a Res Judicatur.

He fairly confess'd there was much to be said He candidly own'd he was nothing afraid Of the learn'd display his Brother had made : Sing down, &c. He thought the case lay in much narrower room Than his Brother throughout had been pleased to assume; "Twas a case of pecunia non numerata, Which is very distinct from a Res Judicata. Sing down, &c.
