Au ExcitiDg Legal question.
There was much excitement about
the City Hall to-day, growing cut OF
the alleged discovery made by some
lawyers that the passage Of the consol-
idation act legislates Comptroller
Green out OF Office, ard that the city ls
now without Comptroller. Whether
the opinion OF these lawyers will stand
the test before the courts or not is
questionable, but they say that under
the new charter the Board Of Aldermen
is vested with the powers OF the old
Board of Supervisors, subject to the
Mayors veto; that the county treasurer
is made treasurer Of the new corpora
tion; that no provision is made for the
constitution OF executive departments,
and that there are no government Off
GERS except a Board OF Aldermen, a
County Treasurer, &C., represented by
City Chamberlain Green, Van Mort,
Delafield, Smith, and others. The
heads of the departments are not, the
lawyers say, officers OF the new muni-
cipality, and have no power or author
ity in the government Of the city.
