next, and on the same day every four years
thereafter, for a mayor, whose term shall com-
mence on the first Monday in the succeeding
November, and continue for four years, or until
his successor shall be qualified. Members of
both branches of the City Council are to be
chosen at the same time also, in 1867, and
thereafter, for the First Branch each year, and
