The opinion

Sawyer, C. J., concurring specially:

• It is clear to my mind that the eighteenth' section of the Act of "1863,' relied on by respondent, has no application whatever to the special tax raised for the specific purpose of supporting common schools, which produced the fund in question. It only refers to general taxation for the ordinary" purposes of county revenue. The petitioner is, therefore, entitled to the writ on this ground.
