MASSACHUSETTS (bouvier) | MASSACHUSETTS. One of the original states of the United States of America. 
 The colony or province of Massachusetts was included in a charter granted by 
 James the First, by which its territories were extended in breadth from the 
 40th to the 48th degree of north latitude, and in length by all the breadth 
 aforesaid throughout the mainland from sea to sea. This charter continued 
 until 1684. Holmes' Annals, 412; 1 Story, Const. Sec. 71. In 1691 William 
 and Mary granted a new charter to the colony, and henceforth it became known 
 as a province, and continued to act under this charter till after the 
 Revolution. 1 Story, Const. Sec. 71. 
      2. The constitution of Massachusetts was adopted by a convention begun 
 and held at Cambridge, on the first of September, 1779, and continued, by 
 adjournment, to the second of March, 1780. 
      3. The style and name of the state is The Commonwealth of 
 Massachusetts. The government is distributed into a legislative, executive 
 and judicial power.   
      4.-1st. The department of legislation is formed by two branches, a 
 senate and house of representatives, each of which has a negative on the 
 other, and both are styled The General Court of Massachusetts. Part 2, c. 1, 
 s. 1. 
      5.-1. The senate is elected by the qualified electors, and is 
 composed of forty persons to be counsellors and senators for the year 
 ensuing their election. Part 2, c. 1, s. 2, art. 1. 
      6.-2. The House of representatives is composed of an indefinite 
 number of persons elected by the towns in proportion to their population. 
 Part 2, c. 1, s. 3, art. 2. 
      7.-2d. The executive power is vested in a governor, lieutenant 
 governor and council. 
      8.-1. The supreme executive magistrate is styled The Governor of the 
 Commonwealth of Massachusetts. He is elected yearly by the qualified 
 electors. Part 2, c. 2, s. 1. He is invested with the veto power. Part 2, c. 
 1, s. 1, art. 2. 
      9.-2. The electors are required to elect annually a lieutenant 
 governor. When the office of governor happens to be vacant he acts as 
 governor, and at other times he is a member of the council. Part 2, c. 2, s. 
 2, art. 2 and 3. 
     10.-3. The council consists of nine persons chosen annually by the 
 general court; they mast be taken from those returned for counsellors and 
 senators, unless they will not accept the said office, when they shall be 
 chosen from the people at large. The council shall advise the governor in 
 the executive part of the government. Part 2, c. 2, s. 3, art. 1 and 2. 
     11.-3d. The judicial power. The third chapter of part second of the 
 constitution makes the following provisions in relation to the judiciary: 
     Art. 1. The tenure that all commissioned officers shall, by law, have in 
 their office, shall be expressed in their respective commissions; all 
 judicial officers, duly appointed, commissioned, and sworn, shall hold their 
 offices during good behaviour; excepting such concerning whom there is 
 different provision made in this constitution; Provided, nevertheless, the 
 governor, with consent of the council, may remove them upon the address of 
 both houses of the legislature. 
     12.-2. Each branch of the legislature, as well as the governor and 
 council, shall have authority to require the opinions of the justices of the 
 supreme judicial court, upon important questions of law, and upon solemn 
 occasions. 
     13.-3. In order that the people may not suffer from the long 
 continuance in place of any justice of the peace, who shall fail of 
 discharging the important duties of his office with ability or fidelity, all 
 commissions of justices of the peace shall expire and become void in the 
 term of seven years from their respective dates; and upon the expiration of 
 any commission, the same may, if necessary, be renewed, or another person 
 appointed, as shall most conduce to the well-being of the commonwealth. 
     14.-4. The judges of probates of wills, and for granting letters of 
 administration, shall hold their courts at such place or places, on fixed 
 days, as the convenience of the people may require; and the legislature 
 shall, from time to time hereafter, appoint such times and places: until 
 which appointments, the said courts shall be holden at the times and places 
 which the respective judges shall direct. 
     15.-5. All causes of marriage, divorce, and alimony, and all appeals 
 from the judges of probate, shall be heard and determined by the governor 
 and council, until the legislature shall, by law, make other provision.
