The Petersburg Charter.

The Legislature has finally passed the Pc
tersburg charter. We have not the time
nor the disposition to-day to discuss an ac-
complished fact. No argument could have
induced the conservative members Of that
body to ferego this act Of partizau maligni-
ty and usurpation, and should the Governor
sign the bill and thereby give it the
sanction Of law, We presume the people of
Petersburg will at once. endeayor to have it's
constitutiouality tried before the courts upon
this portion Of it. Representative Round
made the following point in an exhaustive
argument against the passage Of the bill.
I. Farsi. That the extraordinary autocratie
and moaarchial powers given to the city
Judge of Petersburg are ID contravcntion of
the provisions Of Article III Of the consti
tuition, providing that the executive, legis
lative, and judicial departments Of govern
ment should be kept separate and distinct.
Second. That said powers are in contra
ventiono Of the spirit Of Article Ill If THE.
constitution, because they abridge aud rens
der nugatury the elective franchise and the
right to hold Office. ).
Third That the powers named are ID
contravention of Article Nv, which vests
the EXECUTIVE power of the commonwealth in
a governor, aud Article Nv, Section 20
which vests the executive power OF cities in
a mayor. '''
Fourth. That the powers conferred on the
municipal commissioner to legislate are
in coutravention at Article V. which vests
the Legislative. power in General Assembly
which has no Authority to give its powers to
a commission, and Of Article VI, Section 20,
which recognizes the common council, body
we'll known ia statutory law as the legisla-
tive body of cities 81 81 aWip Ill d. :.
q Fifth. That the proposed charter is in con
prevention Of that clause Of Section 20, Ar
ticle VT, which forbids special legislation !;
that while this precision was necessarily in
definite and much was left to the discretion
Of the General Assembly, yet tho provision
must mean something. and the legislators
must be, in honor, bound by its spirit
.Sirth. That the power given to the judge
to appointa jailor, who shall perform the
duties and have such powers as are now i'm.
possd by law on sheriffs and sergeants as
keepers of jails, is in contravention Of Sec
tons Is aud II of Article VI, which pro-
yides that city sergeant shall be elected by
the people. g 11
