      Circuit courts: JSwpei'visory jurisdiction: Inferior tribmials: Certiorari: Proceedings before commissioner to dissolve attachment Circuit courts have, under the constitution (Art. VI, § S), a general supervisory control, subject to the appellate jurisdiction of the supreme court, over inferior courts and. tribunals; and they may issue a common-law certiorari to bring up for review proceedings before a circuit court c.ommissioner for the dissolution of an attachment.
    
      Submitted on briefs and decided April 30.
    
    Application for Mandamus.
    
    Eelator commenced suit by attachment against one Marcus Young in the St. Clair circuit. Young, after having moved the court to quash the proceedings for insufficiency of the affidavit and failed in his motion, applied to the circuit court commissioner of the county to dissolve the attachment, and the commissioner dissolved it for insufficiency of the affidavit in form. The relator thereupon applied to the circuit judge for a certiorari to review the proceedings before the commissioner, which writ was granted. When the cause came on for hearing, however, the circuit judge declined to hear it on the ground of want of jurisdiction. The relator applies for mandamus to require the respondent to reinstate the cause and hear and determine it on its merits, and makes a showing of the above facts, and also that the commissioner’s term had since expired, and that he was not reelected, and that for that reason, as the relator is advised, he is prevented from suing out a new writ of certiorari.
    
    
      Chadwick & Potter, for relator.
    
      Atkinson Bros., for respondent.
