The opinion of the court was delivered by

Vaht Syckel, J.

The relator, who is one of the judges of the Court of Common Pleas of the county of Essex, asks for a mandamus commanding the clerk of Essex county to disregard the act of the legislature, passed March 14th, 1895, known as the County Court act.

A supplement was passed to the act, March 22d, 1895 (Pamph. L., p. 647), and on the 13th of June, 1895, the act embodying the supplement was again passed. Pamph. L., p. 807.

The relator claims that the act is unconstitutional, and bases his right to the mandatory writ upon that ground.

It is admitted…
