Tho attendance at the club room ‘waa not large, on account of the thunder storm which prevailed during its progress; but it was select and in- tellectual. Mr. Downar, the well known President of the club, in- troduced the lecturer as ‘‘a distinguished naturalist, geologist and mineralogist."" ‘Mr. Biaxe then arose, and after describing the geo- graphical! position of Russian America, which adjoins the Saglish possessions and Behring Straits on the north, LECTURE BY lars of rights and privileges of the Bussian-.

The Old Comanisst re Susteined—Tho Power of Removing H. of Depart~ monts mot Vested im the Board of Aldermen. SUPREME COURT—OBAMBERS. Before Judge Leonard. Jove 30.—The Croton Aqueduct injunction cass, in which the Board of Aldermen and politicians generally have taken such an interest, was decided to-day in favor of the old Commissioners, Messrs. Darragh and Stephens. Judge Leonard held that the Board of Aldermen had no right to remove the ola Commissioners, and that the Power of removing heads of departments from office ‘was vested im the Governor alone. Annexed is the opinion :— ‘These actions are prosecuted to determine the title of the respective claimants to certain offices in the Croton the tenth article of the constitution of this State. That section, after providing for the election or appointment of county, city, town and village officers by local elec- tors or authorities where no provision ts metas He constitution for an election or appointment to those offices, declare ‘‘that all other officers whose election or appointment is not provided for by the constitution, and created by all officers whose offices may be law, shall be elected by the people or ag the lature may direct.” Tt was not denied at the argument that these officers were created law in 1849. Since the adoption of the constitu- tion in 1846; and an in of the laws the fact sppears to be so. Within the decision of the Court of Ce in the case of the People against Draper, 15 N. ¥. R. 632, the Legislature may Provigal for the election or appointment (q any manner it suitable, of all omtcor, Jotal or general, whose offices were thoreafter or would not be dgomae tool, ; wthorlese to aphosd en ep. tment to lature, although ita lan- ‘SBfears to be broad sears to embrace such an act. Such a case was not then before that court, and the validity of a legislative appointment was not sidered. The validity of the law extonding the term of office of Mr. Stephens is claimed to be upheld by section three of the tenth article of the constitution, whether the office is local or not, and independently of the time of ita crea- tion, whether before or after the constitution of 1846. ‘That section authorizes the Legislature to declare by the law the duration of any office not provided by the oonsti- tution. This provision speaks only of declaring the du- ration of an office; not the duration of the term of an officer already elected or appointed to an office, the dura- tion of which has been deolared by « previous law. The act of 1863 declares two things, viz: the duration pole Fst — = ‘2 duration of Nc of an incumbent, e firgt least _ wi oe con: stitutional authority of the taco, while the other, were It not for another decision of the Court of Appeals, would appear to be as clearly without sanction. The case of the Poople int Bachelior, 22 N. ¥. R, 137, is controlling authority on the eul and, ase member of a subordinate tribunal, I must follow it as au- thority. Tho act of the Legislature extending Bachelior’s term of office was ntly the lent for the Jaw under consideration.
