By the court.

¶1We are of opinion, that neither writs of error, writs of review, nor writs of scire facias against bail and against endorsers of writs, are original writs within the meaning of the statute, which requires such writs to be endorsed. They are judicial, and not original writs. 3 Bl. Com. 282; 16 Mass. Rep. 74, Grosvenor v. Danforth; 9 Mass. Rep. 217, Campbell v. Stiles. The writ cannot therefore be quashed on this ground.
