v.
Duane.
Supreme Court of United States.
*354 The COURT
After a long advisement upon the subject, seemed to think, that alienage might have been a cause of challenge, before the juror was sworn; but, upon an extensive review of the authorities, they decided, that advantage could not be taken of it, after verdict.
Rule discharged.[(1)]
