Opinion:
By the Court,
Lyons, J.
On the return to the writ, of cer-tiorari heretofore issued, it appears that the order made by the court of the eighth judicial district is the same as that which was before us on the application for the writ. The impressions expressed in the opinion then delivered, have been confirmed by subsequent investigation and reflection. The order returned by the writ of certiorari is therefore reversed and vacated.
Ordered accordingly.
