    BELL vs. DEWOODY.
    Jurisdiction of courts of equity is not affected by the assumption of jurisdiction by courts of law.
    
      In Equity, in consequence of a bond that was lost.
    
   Per Curiam.

It is true, that suits at law may be maintained in a case situated like the present. But the court of equity having previously jurisdiction of cases of this nature, their jurisdiction is not taken away by the courts of law having taken cogizance. The jurisdiction of the two courts are now concurrent. In matters of account, if the legality of a debit or credit be disputed, it is the practice for the court to settle the point of law, and the clerk and master is to make the calculation of the amount and balance.
