1Opinion of the CourtSimrall, C. J.

J. W. Crump appealed from the order of the board of supervisors of Colfax county to the circuit court. That court coincided in opinion with the board, and he has brought his case to. this court.

He presented a claim against Colfax county for a balance off-$610. Of this sum the board allowed him $35. The preliminary exception is taken to the jurisdiction of-this court. The Gode of 1871 is silent on the- subject of appeals in cases like this. The act of 2d of March, 1833, organizing the‘board of' police, allowed appeals to the circuit court, but is silent as to the further removal of the cause…
