So prevalent is this qualified idea of the position and duties of a guarantee, that it is a common practice hero for surety to receive a consideration for the usu of his unie, with the understanding that no individual responsibility follows upon the pro- cess. The Chinese authorities moreovere lave been found to support this view, for they buvo always persistently avoided adding upon the principle that a surety is to be regarded na equally responsible with his principal for all the obligations entered into by the latter, which the forrer. nadertakes shall be fulfilled; and they plead in excuse that Clercse udicial practice, whilst admitting the liability of a surety, for the acts and defaults of his principal, is nevertheless through the misemduct of his principal with always careful to treat a surety when involved peculiar lenily, and will not allow of his being prosecuted
