Opinion

Mr. Chief Justice Waite

delivered the opinion of the court.

The judgment in this case is for $1,215.16, but it appears *53 affirmatively on the face of the record that of this amount $2,669.03 was not disputed below. The defence related alone to the difference between these two amounts, which is less than $5,000. The dispute here is only in reference, to the amount contested below. Such being the case, we have no jurisdiction. The cases of Gray v. Blanchard, 97 U. S. 564; Tintsman v. national Bank, 100 U. S. 6; and Hilton v. Dickinson, 108 U. S. 165, are conclusive to this effect.

Dismissed.
