By an Act passed May 1, 1851, it was provided that at the general election in 1853 the people should elect a Superintendent for the constitutional term, and that the Superintendent who had been elected in 1850, should hold to January 1, 1854, and thereafter the term should be three years from the first day of January next after the election. The constitutional amendments of 1862 provided that the Superintendent should be elected at a special election at which only judicial and school officers should be elected, and that the date of the election should be designated by the Legislature of 1863.
