Art. 6] MARYLAND MANUAL 635
Treasurer shall make arrangements for the payment of the
interest of the public debt, and for the purchase thereof,
on account of the sinking fund. Every bond, certificate, or
other evidence of the debt of the State shall be signed by
the Treasurer, Chief Deputy Treasurer, or a Deputy Treas-
urer, and countersigned by the Comptroller, Chief Deputy
Comptroller, or a Deputy Comptroller; and no new certifi-
cate or other evidence intended to replace another shall be
issued until the old one shall be delivered to the Treasurer,
and authority executed in due form for the transfer of the
same filed in his office, and the transfer accordingly made
on the books thereof, and the certificate or other evidence
cancelled; but the Legislature may make provisions for the
loss of certificates, or other evidences of the debt; and may
prescribe, by law, the manner in which the Treasurer shall
receive and keep the moneys of the State.
SEC. 4. The Treasurer shall render his Accounts, quar-
terly, to the Comptroller; and shall publish, monthly, in such
newspapers as the Governor may direct, an abstract there-
of, showing the amount of cash on hand, and the place, or
places of deposit thereof; and on the third day of each
regular session of the Legislature, he shall submit to the
Senate and House of Delegates fair and accurate copies of
all Accounts by him, from time to time, rendered and settled
with the Comptroller. He shall, at all times, submit to the
Comptroller the inspection of the money in his hands, and
perform all other duties that shall be prescribed by Law.
SEC. 5. The Comptroller shall qualify, and enter on the
duties of his office, on the third Monday of January next
succeeding the time of his election, or as soon thereafter
as practicable. And the Treasurer shall qualify within
one month after his appointment by the Legislature.
SEC. 6. Whenever during the recess of the Legislature
charges shall be preferred to the Governor against the
Comptroller or Treasurer, for incompetency, malfeasance
in office, willful neglect of duty, or misappropriation of the
funds of the State, it shall be the duty of the Governor
forthwith to notify the party so charged, and fix a day for
a hearing of said charges; and if, from the evidence taken,
under oath, on said hearing before the Governor, the said
allegations shall be sustained, it shall be the duty of the
Governor to remove said offending officer, and appoint an-
other in his place, who shall hold the office for the unex-
pired term of the officer so removed.
