    ELLISON vs. GERMAN AND COLDWELL.
    Appeal from the county court, by the defendants. The action was founded upon a bill obligatory.
    The jury asked the advice of the court, as to their mode of finding, so as to make it accord with the act of assembly, allowing twelve and an half per cent upon all judgments, brought up from the county courts, which shall be affirmed in the superior.
    
      How the verdict should be rendered in cases brought up by appeal so as to intitle the appellee to 12 & an half per cent on affirmance of the judgment below.
   Per Curiam.

The jury will consider the debt, and interst, up to the time of the verdict in the county court. If they find the same sum, the judgment must be affirmed by the court here, with an allowance of twelve and an half per cent. In this case the jury will not calculate further than to the time of the judgment in the county court. If upon calculation they find that a less sum was allowed in the county court than the plaintiff was entitled to, they will calculate principal and interest, to that time, and find the sum which should have been found in the county court. The court will affirm this judgment, and allow twelve and an half per cent. But if the jury should think, there was judgment for too great a sum, they will calculate pincipal and interest, to this time. In this case the judgment will not be affirmed, nor twelve and a half per cent allowed.
