The defendant denies owing the plaintiff anything, and Claims from him in reconvention §21(5, that being one'half the costs of'hauling certain cotton which defendant avers he1 paid on'joint account. There was judgment r'endered'Against the .plaintiff on his’demand' and in favor of the defendant for his ^conventional demand. The plaintiff has appealed.
There is a motion to dismiss the ‘Appeal’ oíi'tlie gróúnd'that the bond is defective for the reason that it’was expressly given for Vsuspensive appeal, being limited as to the extent of the obligation.
A motion was made by tlie appellant for an appeal suspensive and devolutive. The order granted a suspensive appeal with bond in the amount fixed by law. The bond for a devolutive appeal was fixed at one hundred dollars. Tlie bond executed by the appellant is for $300. It is insufficient for a suspensive appeal, but suffices for a devolutivo
