There is no such rule of practice in this court, as that insisted on by the defendant. It is in his power to nonpross the plaintiff if he pleases; if he does not, the plaintiff may declare at any time. The decision, however, in this case, will not apply to a suit removed by ha-beas corpus; for there, as the defendant cannot nonpross, he is not bound to plead.
