Opinion of the Court

Per curiam.

The lien which constituted the demand was entire, and. for more than the minimum limit of the court’s jurisdic*133tion, though the amount apportioned to the particular building was less. The case is analagous to a covenant for payment by instalments, for each of which there is a separate scire facias. It is clear, therefore, that the District Court had jurisdiction.
