    Lessee of Willinck against Morris and another.
    
      Monday, April 2.
    This Court dvVissueout of Philadel-^ phia.
    THIS ejectment for land situate in Lycoming county, was tried at a Circuit Court held on the 22d October, 1800. On an aPPea^t0 the Court in Bank, a new trial was ordered, Before it took place, the Circuit Courts were abolished, by an- act of assembly passed on the 11th March, 1809, and all causes then untried, were directed to be transferred to the appropriate County Courts of Common Pleas.
    
      Rawle, for the defendants,
    having, on a former day, obtained a rule to shew cause why a venire facias should not issue to Lycoming county, now took a view of the several acts of assembly by which the original jurisdiction of the Supreme Court had, from time to time, been regulated, and contended that the Legislature could not, by abolishing the Circuit Courts, which were a branch of the Supreme Court, deprive a party of his right to a trial. The provisions of the act of assembly, he said, did not embrace this case, as those causes only which were untried at the time of its passage, were directed to be transferred to the Common Pleas. It was very analogous to a judgment in the Common Pleas of Philadelphia'comity, for more than one hundred dollars, obtained before the limitation of the jurisdiction of that Court, to revive which a scire facias always issued from the Common Pleas. He inferred, therefore, the power of this Court to grant the writ for which he applied. '
    Sergeant, contra, was stopped by the Court.
   Per. Curiam.

This Court has no power to issue a venire facias to Lycoming county, or to hold a Court of Nisi Prius there. We have, in several cases, decided, that we can try no civil issue out of the county of Philadelphia.

'' Rule discharged.
