    Indictment [against George Singleton] for assault on Julia Drake.
    Mr. Taylor, for defendant,
    moved the court to arrest the judgment upon the verdict, because the name of a prosecutor was not indorsed on the; indictment; and cited the Virginia law, New Rev. Code, p. 105, c. 74, §§ 24, 25; Id. p: 346, c. 188, § 2; and Act 1802, p. 431, c. 303.
   THE COURT,

after taking time to consider, was of opinion that the want of the name of the prosecutor indorsed upon the indictment, is not sufficient ground to arrest the judgment, and overruled the motion. See Virginia v. Leap [Case No. 16,964], at April term, 1801.
