Sec. 1. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Maryland, That

Monday of said month as is now prescribed by the constitution and
form of government.
2. And be it enacted, That the Governor of this state shall be
chosen
on the first Monday of January, in each and every year, in the
same manner as is now prescribed by the constitution and form of
government, and the council to the governor shall be elected on the
first Tuesday after the first Monday of January, in each and every
year, in the same manner as is now prescribed by the constitution
and form of government.
3. And be it enacted, That all annual appointments of civil
officers
in this state shall be made in the third week of January, in every
year,
in the same manner as the constitution and form of government now
directs.
4. And be it enacted, That all and every part of the
constitution
and form of government that is repugnant to, or inconsistent with
the provisions of this act, be, and the same are hereby repealed,
abrogated
and annulled upon the confirmation hereof.
5. And be it enacted, That if this act shall be confirmed by the
General Assembly after the next election of delegates, in the first
session
after such new election, as the constitution and form of government
directs, that in such case this act and the alterations and amendments
therein contained shall be taken and considered, and shall constitute
and be valid as a part of the said constitution and form of government
to all intents and purposes, any thing in said constitution
and form of government to the contrary notwithstanding.
