Upon the reasoning and the authorities cited in that case, the objection to the jurisdiction in the present case must be sustained. It is suggested that this court cannot go further than to order the dismissal of the appeal, since the question of the jurisdiction only is involved. The record shows, however, that the appeal was taken upon the merits also. The cause will be remanded, with Instructions to dismiss the bilL
