    HARDING v. HARRIS.
    if in replevin, a verdict be found for the defendant as to a small part of the' goods, of less value than twenty dollars, yet he is entitled to full costs.
    Ik replevin of a large quantity of goods, the jury found thé' property of a very small part of them to be in the person under whom the defendant justified, and for the plaintiff as to the residue; so that each party had judgment for costs ; — and by virtue of the Slat. 1822, ch. 186, they also found and certified-the value of the goods, of which those belonging to the defendant were of less value than twenty dollars.
    And now Emery and Longfellow, for the plaintiff,
    moved that-the clerk be directed to tax for the defendants costs only one quarter part as much as the value of the goods found for him ; under the equity of the statute, which limits the plaintiff to the same amount, in case the goods belonging to him are found to-be of less than twenty dollars’ value.
    
      Orr and Greenleaf
    
    for the defendant,- objected that he was-entitled to full costs as a “ party prevailing,” under the general' statute regulating costs, which the statute of replevin did not* expressly nor by necessary implication repeal.
   Arid the Court refused the motion.-
