Dac, 24—In the Matter of the Application of Julius M. Ackley for a Mandamus, <tc. To R. B. Connolly, Eg. C-unty Cleri:—The applicant in this case claims to have been appointed by the Common Council uf the city of New York a Commissioner of Deeds, and alleges that he bas applied to Mr Connolly, the County Clerk, toad minister to bim the usual oath of office, and which he has declined todo, A mandamus is asked for to compel ‘him to administer such oath. Davims, Justice. By the act of March 7, 1348, (La wa of 1848, Chap. 75,) it is declared that ‘‘Commisstoners of Deeds, in the cities of this State, shall be appointed by the Common Counci! of such cities respectively.’’ It thus cems toat the act confers the power of appointment on the Common Councils of the respective cities of this Bate. exclustyely, without the cr co-operation of any other boiy, In 1o appointments mede in and for this city, becomes necessary to inquire what is the Common Council of this city, and who compose it. Seotion lef the amended charter of 1330 (Davis’ Laws, p. 199), de- 4 of Aldermen and the ‘Board of As- for i of the the amended cbarter of 1463 (Davia’ Laws, p. 210), declares that the Board of Aloermen and tue Beard of Councilmen shal! ‘ogether form the Com- mon Council of the city.’’ 1 would seem, therefore, to be quite clear, without any negative words, that the Common Couscil of this city was composed only of tne Boara of Aldermen and the Board of Councilmen. will be recollected that previous to the amended charter of 1960 the Mayor and der of the city, by virtue of the then e: charter, were members of the Commoa Council, and eat with the Aldermen and Astistants wien ee in Common Council. (Sec. 14 of Mont. Charter: Laws, p. ) By sec 16 of the amended charter of 1830 (Davis’ Laws, p. 201), it is declared that “neither the Mayor or Recorder of the city of New York sball be s member of the Common Council thereof afer the second Tuesday of May, 1831.'’ Tats express prohi bition, coupled with the ceclaration in the amended charter, would seem to make it clear beyond q tion that the Common Couzel is solely compozed ie ye gece and the hang of Cousciimen, and © Mayor cann: regarded ia any sense as of the Common Council; and it foliows oat wren sa ak of the Legislature deciares certain appointments shall ve | made by the Common Councti, it means the Common Couroil ovly, withont the approval of the Mayor. | know of no rule sp vilcable to the construction of staiutes which would authorize such a reading of that now uncer con- sideration, soas to require the co-operation of any other body. It seems to mv that the power of appointment is conierred by the Jawe exclurtyely upon the Common Council, to be exercised by them trregpective of the con- currence Or GOR concurrence of the Mayor or otner fwetionary. The exercise of tae power of appointument to edice is 8 purely executive uct, and when the authority conferred bas beea exorcised, it ts foal for the term of the appointment. That the power to make ap; te ner to office was ded by © pond ture as thi suthority, is apoarent jection 9 of tho amended charter of 1344. P. 206.) By that section tl» provided that mitiee or mem er of the Common Council * t any executive business whatever, except su shall be especially imposed on them by the laws of this dtate, and except those, the Board of Aidermes may approve or reject 1he nominations made to them as uorelualier pro The power to appoint to oilice is regarded as a ) or executive powor, to be exercised by the per- tom authorized to execute, according to bis discretion. (Marbury ye. Madrine, 1 Cranch 187) Ohief Justice Marthail in that caso says.—‘‘When he (the Presi at) has wade an appointment, he bas exercised his whole wer, 204 bis diecrotion has been completely applied Tf, by law, the oilicer be removable at the Premdeat, then a new appointment may be tely made, and the righis of the oliver are ter- mipsted. But in a fact which bas existed, canaot be made pover to have existed, the appointment cannot be amibi'ated: and, coperquently, if the o'ticeris by law not removable #t the wii! of the President, tne righ he bas acquired are protected by law, and are not rescma- ble by the Presidént; they canaot be extingutphed by ex- ecctive sutbority.”” "It uw perfectly appa- Tent, therefore, that the exercise of the promite of appointment to oifice is not a legislative act or acts of the Legisiature in the nature of are repealable at the will of the law maker, ‘ect to the Inhibition in the constitution of the UCaited Sates, that co law sball be passed impair: the obligation of comtrscts.
