Little, J.

The Supreme Court has no jurisdiction to ‍‌‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‍review an order made by a judge of the superior court appointing a notary public ‍‌‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‍and ex-officio justice of the peace for a named district, on the recommendation of the ‍‌‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‍grand jury of the county in which such district is situated. The statute imposes the ‍‌‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‍duty of making such appointments on the judge, not on the superior court. See Ailed v, Watts, 114 Ga. 149, and ‍‌‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‍cases cited.

Writ of error dismissed.

All the Justices concurring.
