MARYLAND
(bouvier)
MARYLAND. One of the original states of the United States of America. The
province of Maryland was included in the patent of the Southern or Virginia
company; and upon the dissolution of that company, it reverted to the crown.
Charles the First, on the 20th of June, 1632, granted it by patent to Lord
Baltimore. Under this charter Maryland continued to be governed, with some
short intervals of interruption, down to the period of the American
Revolution, by the successors of the original proprietor. 1 Chalmer's
Annals, 203.
2. Upon the revolution of 1688, the government of Maryland was seised
into the hands of the crown, and was not again restored to the proprietary
until 1716; from that period no alteration occurred until the American
Revolution. Bacon's Laws of Maryland, 1692, 1716.
3. The original constitution of this state was adopted on the 14th day
of August, 1776. The present constitution was adopted in 1851.
4. The powers of the government are distributed into the legislative,
the executive, and the judicial.
5.-1st. The legislature shall consist of two distinct branches, a
senate and a house of delegates, which shall be styled "The general assembly
of Maryland." Art. III. s. 1.
6.-2. The general assembly shall meet on the first Wednesday of
January, 1852, on the same day, in the year 1853, and on the same day, 1854,
and on the same day in every second year thereafter, and at no other time,
unless convened by the proclamation of the governor. Art. III. s. 7.
7.-3. The senate will be considered with reference to the
qualification of the electors; the qualification of the members; the length
of time for which they are elected; and the time of their election. 1. Every
free white male person of twenty-one years of age or upwards, who shall have
been one year next preceding the election a resident of the state, and for
six months a resident of the city of Baltimore, or of any county in which he
may offer to vote, and being at the time of the election, a citizen of the
United States, shall be entitled to vote in the ward or election district in
which he resides, in all elections hereafter to be held; an& at all such
elections the vote shall be taken by ballot. And in case any county or city
shall be so divided as to form portions of different electoral districts for
the election of congressmen, senator, delegate or other officer or officers,
then to entitle a person to vote for such officer, he must have been a
resident of that part of the county or city which shall form a part of the
electoral district in which he offers to vote for six months next preceding
the election: but a person who shall have acquired a residence in such
county or city, entitling him to vote at any such election, shall be
entitled to vote in the election district from which he remoted, until he
shall have acquired a residence in the part of the county or city to which
he has removed. Art. I. s. 1. 2. No person shall be eligible as a senator
who at the time of his election is not a citizen of the United States, and
who bas not resided at least three years next preceding the day of his
election, in this state, and the last year thereof in the county or city
which he may be chosen to represent, if such county or city shall have been
so long established, and if not, then in the county from which, in whole or
in part, the same may have been formed; nor shall any person be eligible as
a senator unless he shall have attained the age of twenty-five years. No
member of congress, or person holding any civil or military office under the
United States, shall be eligible as a senator; and if any person, after his
election as a senator, be elected to congress, or be appointed to any
office, civil or military, under the government of the United States, his
acceptance thereof shall vacate his seat. No minister or preacher of the
gospel of any denomination, and no person holding any civil office of profit
or trust under the state, except justices of the peace, shall be eligible as
senator. Art. III. ss. 9, 10, 11. 3. Every county of the state, and the city
of Baltimore, shall be entitled to elect one senator, who shall serve for
four years from the day of their election. The first election shall take
place on the first Wednesday of November, 1851, and an election for one-half
the senators, as nearly as practicable, shall be held on the same day every
second year thereafter. Art. III. 2, 3, 4, 5.
8.-4. The house of delegates will be treated of in the same manner
which has been observed in considering the senate. 1. The electors are
qualified in the same manner as the electors of the senate. 2. No person
shall be a delegate who shall not have attained the age of twenty-one years;
the other qualifications are the same as those for a senator. 3. The whole
number of delegates shall never exceed eighty, nor be less than sixty-five,
and shall be apportioned among the several counties according to the
population of each, the city of Baltimore to have four more delegates than
the most populous county; no county to have less than two delegates, the
apportionment to be made after the returns of the national census in 1860
are published, and in like manner after each subsequent census. They are to
serve two years from the day of their election, which takes place on the
same day as that for senators.
9.-1. The executive power of the state shall be vested in a governor,
whose term of office shall commence on the second Wednesday of January next
ensuing his election, and continue for four years, and until his successor
shall have qualified.
10.-2. The first election for governor under this constitution shall
be held on the first Wednesday of November, in the year eighteen hundred and
fifty-three, and on the same day and month in every fourth year thereafter,
at the places of voting for delegates to the general assembly, and every
person qualified to vote for delegates shall be qualified, and entitled to
vote for governor; the election to be held in the same manner as the
election of delegates, and the returns thereof, under seal, to be addressed
to the speaker of the house of delegates, and enclosed and transmitted to
the secretary of state, and delivered to the said speaker at the
commencement of the session of the legislature next ensuing said election.
11.-3. The speaker of the house of delegates shall then open the said
returns in the presence of both houses, and the person having the highest
number of votes, and being constitutionally eligible, shall be the governor,
and shall qualify in the manner herein prescribed, on the second Wednesday
of January next ensuing his election, or as soon thereafter as may be
practicable.
12.-4. If two or more persons shall have the highest and an equal
number of votes, one of them shall be chosen governor by the senate and
house of delegates; and all questions in relation to the eligibility of
governor, and to the returns of said election, and to the number and
legality of votes therein given, shall be determined by the house of
delegates. And if the person or persons having the highest number of votes
be ineligible, the governor shall be chosen by the senate and house of
delegates. Every election of governor, by the legislature, shall be
determined by a joint majority of the senate and house of delegates, and the
vote shall be taken viva voce. But if two or more persons shall have the
highest and an equal number of votes, then a second vote shall be taken,
which shall be confined to the persons having an equal number; and if the
votes should again be equal, then the election of governor shall be
determined by lot between those who shall have the highest and an equal
number on the first vote.
13.-5. The state shall be divided into three districts. St. Mary's,
Charles, Calvert, Prince George's, Anne Arundle, Montgomery, and Howard
counties, and the city of Baltimore to be the first; the eight counties of
the Eastern shore to be the second; and Baltimore, Harford, Frederick,
Washington, Allegany, and Carroll counties, to be the third. The governor,
elected from the third district in October last, shall continue in office
during the term for which he was elected. The governor shall be taken from
the first district, at the first election of governor under this
constitution; from the second district at the second election, and from the
third district at the third election, and in like manner, afterwards, from
each district, in regular succession.
14.-6. A person to be eligible to the office of governor, must have
attained the age of thirty years, and been for five years a citizen of the
United States, and for five years next preceding his election a resident of
the state, and for three years a resident of the district from which he was
elected.
15.-7. In case of the death or resignation of the governor, or of his
removal from the state, the general assembly, if in session, or if not, at
their next session, shall elect some other qualified resident of the same
district, to be the governor for the residue of the term for which the said
governor had been elected.
16.-8. In case of any vacancy in the office of governor during the
recess of the legislature, the president of the senate shall discharge the
duties of said office till a governor is elected as herein provided for; and
in case of the death or resignation of said president, or of his removal
from the state, or of his refusal to serve, then the duties of said office
shall, in like manner, and for the same interval, devolve upon the speaker
of the house of delegates, and the legislature may provide by law for the
case of impeachment or inability of the governor, and declare what person
shall perform the executive duties during such impeachment or inability; and
for any vacancy in said office, not herein provided for, provision may be
made by law, and if such vacancy should occur without such provision being
made, the legislature shall be convened by the secretary of state for the
purpose of filling said vacancy.
17.-9. The governor shall be commander-in-chief of the land and naval
forces of the state, and may call out the militia to repel invasions,
suppress insurrections, and enforce the execution of the laws; but shall not
take the command in person without the consent of the legislature.
18.-10. He shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed.
19.-11. He shall nominate, and by and with the advice and consent of
the senate, appoint all civil and military officers of the state, whose
appointment or election is not otherwise herein provided for, unless a
different mode of appointment be prescribed by the law creating the office.
20.-12. In case of any vacancy during the recess of the senate, in any
office which the governor has power to fill, he shall appoint some suitable
person to said office, whose commission shall continue in force till the end
of the next session of the legislature, or till some other person is
appointed to the same office, whichever shall first occur, and the
nomination of the person thus appointed during the recess, or of some other
person in his place, shall be made to the senate within thirty days after
the next meeting of the legislature.
21.-13. No person, after being rejected by the senate, shall be again
nominated for the same office at the same session, unless at the request of
the senate; or be appointed to the same office during the recess of the
legislature.
22.-14. All civil officers appointed be the governor and senate shall
be nominated to the senate within fifty days from the commencement of each
regular session of the legislature; and their term of office shall commence
on the first Monday of May next ensuing their appointment, and continue for
two years (unless sooner removed from office) and until their successors,
respectively, qualify according to law.
23.-15. The governor may suspend or arrest any military officer of the
state for disobedience of orders, or other military offence, and may remove
him in pursuance of the sentence of a court-martial; and may remove for
incompetency or misconduct, all civil officers, who receive appointments
from the executive for a term not succeeding two years.

condition of the state, and recommend to their consideration such measures
as he may judge necessary and expedient.
27.-19. He shall have power to grant reprieves and pardons, except in

offences against the state; but shall not remit the principal or interest of
any debt due to the state, except in cases of fines and forfeitures; and
before granting a nolle prosequi, or pardon, he shall give notice, in one or

which shall be co-extensive with the limits of the state. It shall consist
of a chief justice and three associate justices, any three of whom shall
form a quorum, whose judgment shall be final and conclusive in all cases of

appeals of this state now has, and such other appellate jurisdiction as
hereafter may be provided for by law. And in every case decided, an opinion,
in writing, shall be filed, and provision shall be made, by law, for
publishing reports of cases argued and determined in the said court. The

judges shall be twenty-five hundred dollars a year; and the legislature
shall, wherever it may think the same proper and expedient, provide, by law,
another court for the city of Baltimore, to consist of one judge to be
elected by the qualified voters of the said city, who shall be subject to
the same constitutional provisions, hold his office for the same term of

district in the several counties, who shall be elected by the legal and
qualified voters thereof respectively, at the next general election for
delegates thereafter, and shall hold their offices for two years from the
time of their election, and until their successors in office are elected and
qualified; and the legislature may, from time to time, increase or diminish
the number of justices of the peace and constables to be elected in the
several wards and election districts, as the wants and interests of the
people may require. They shall be, by virtue of their offices, conservators
of the peace in the said counties and city respectively, and shall have such
duties and compensation as now exist, or may be provided for by law. In the
event of a vacancy in the office of a justice of the peace, the governor
shall appoint a person to serve as justice of the peace, until the next
