Per Curiam.

¶1The act of assembly directs us to remit' the record with our judgment written upon it to the Court of Common Pleas, who are to carry the same into effect. We did in one instance, direct a writ of restitution to be issued from this Court, but we have never proceeded by attachment. The safest way is to send the record to the Court of Common Pleas, in order to have our judgment carried into effect, and this is the practice we shall pursue in future.
