By the Court,
A motion has been made by the At-•orney General, upon behalf of the county of Pope, to dismiss the cause, on the ground that no appeal lies from a final judgment of a county court to this court.
The 2d section of the 6th article of the constitution, declares that “The supreme court shall have appellate jurisdiction only, except in cases otherwise directed by this constitution, which shall be co-extensive with the State, under such restrictions and regulations as shall be prescribed by law.” This jurisdiction of the supreme court, must either be exercised by and through the use of the appropriate writs *309named in the subsequent part of that section, or else by some other means provided by legislative enactment. The use of the writs there specified is an affirmative grant of constitutional jurisdiction, with which the legislature cannot interfere, as has been fully considered and decided by this court, during the present term, in the case of Philip L. Anthony, Ex parte. It is, however, competent for the legislature to provide other means than the use of those writs, for the purpose of revising the proceedings of inferior courts; and in such cases the remedy, so provided, depends entirely upon the legislature for its existence, who may modify or abolish it at pleasure. This doctrine was fully established in the case of The State vs. Graham, 1 Ark. Rep. 428. This case comes within those principles; and inasmuch as the legislature have not, by any law, conferred the right of appeal from judgments of the county court, the supreme court has no jurisdiction to hear and determine the cause upon the appeal.
The case must therefore be dismissed.
