THE COURTS.
THE COMMISSIONER OF JURORS.

ARGUMENTS OF Oakley HALL AND VIM. b. EyARrs
The question of the rightful occupancy OF
the Office OF Commissioner OF Jurors, whether by
Douglass Taylor under the law OF 1S7 and his appoint
nent in 1864. or by Thomas Dunlap under the charef
OF 1873 and his appointment by Mayor Wickham In the
Summer Of 1875, argued ut length before the ou
prcme Court General Term yesterday. A. Oakey Han
appeared for Mr. Taylor and claimed that the ohce OF
summoning Jurors was inherently county Office; that
It had always belonged TO Sherirs in England.
and in this State TO sheri1s or Supervisors,
both county officers though at times In this city certain
city officers had been made 0eio TO do the duties Oh
jury officers All these local references OF county duties
to city officers aside by the act of 16i7
creating Commissioner Of Jurors Independent OF and
aside from the City Government The act of 1873 under
its title related solely to the city. Its title was: An
Pet to Reorganize the Local Government OF the City OF
New-York" II void under the Constitution which
provided that private local bill shall embrace
more than subject ond that shall be expressed In the
title" The law was settled that subjects embraced in
the title OF such an act this valid while those not
relating to it void Under this rule provisions as to
city matters were valid but this provision relating to
separate subject was void.
VIM NJ Evars in answer argued that the bill pub
lie but local. and the locality Of the city and county be-
ing the same the constitutional objection failed More
over the constitutional provision made in 1916 and
the Office created in lS17 II settled that Offices
created since the Constitution. known TO the law ae
