    A bill of exceptions is not the proper remedy for a wrong direction of the Court of Common Pleas on a complaint under St. 1785, c. 66, § 2, for the maintenance of a bastard child.
    
      Certiorari is the proper remedy. Semblei
    
    This case came before the Court upon a bill of exceptions filed to the directions of the Court of Common Pleas upon a complaint made pursuant to St. 1785, c. 66, § 2, by Sally Stiles Gile against James Moore, as the father of a bastard child of which she had been delivered. But the Court were of opinion, that they could not take cognizance of the cause in this form, notwithstanding the provision in St. 1820, c. 79, § 5 ; and the Chief Justice suggested that the proper mode of bringing it before them might be by a writ of certiorari.
