Id.; when proceedings to be under former statutes, Where any provision of this act is made applicable to future proceedings in an action or special proceeding, the proceedings therein, until the provision In question becomes applicable, are governed by, and must be conducted according to the laws in force on the day before the provision takes effect, except as otherwise prescribed in subdivision seventh of the last sec tion but one.

$3350. Effect of this act, upon trial jurors and juries, in criminal causes. A jury, for the trial of an indictment or other criminal cause, at a term of a court of record, commencing on or after the twenty-first day of May, 1877, must be procured from the trial jurors selected, drawn, and notified, as prescribed in this act, for the term of the court at which it is triable, including the talesmen or additional jurors, procured as prescribed therein; and the same must be tried by the jury so formed. But the statutes remaining unrepealed after the first day of September, 1877, relating to challenges or disqualifications of petit jurors in a criminal cause, or prescribing the cases where talesmen or additional petit jurors must be summoned in a criminal cause, remain unaffected by this act, and are applicable to the proceedings taken as prescribed in this act, and to the trial jurors therein specified.

imposed as prescribed in article fourth of title third of chapter tenth of this act; and sections 1073 to 1077 of this act, both inclusive, apply to such a person, as if he had been drawn, and notified to attend as a trial juror. 2. Where a provision of those statutes refers to the lists of petit jurors, the ballots containing their names, the box or boxes in which those ballots are deposited or contained, the selecting, drawing, summoning, or empanelling of petit jurors, the imposition of a fine upon a petit juror, or the enforcement, reduction, or remission thereof, it is deemed to refer to the same subject, as provided for in this act, in like manner as it refers to those statutes.

§3352. Id.; upon proceedings taken, or rights accrued, etc., under former statutes.-Nothing contained in any provision of this act, other than in chapter fourth, renders ineffectual, or otherwise impairs, any proceeding in an action or a special proceeding, had or taken, pursuant to law, or any other lawful act done, or right, defence, or limitation, lawfully accrued or established, before the provision in question takes effect; unless the contrary is expressly declared in the provision in question. As far as it may be necessary, for the purpose of avoiding such a result, or carrying into effect such a proceeding or other act, or enforcing or protecting such a right, defence, or limitation, the statutes in force on the day before the provision takes effect, are deemed to remain in force, notwithstanding the repeal thereof.

Until he is removed, or his office or place becomes otherwise vacant, the provisions of this act apply to him, and to the discharge of his duties. The court, officer, or offi. cers, authorized by this act to appoint a person to an office or employment, may from time to time thus fill a vacancy therein.

[Amended, 1882.] When this act deemed to have been passed, etc.-For the purpose of deter nining the effect of the different provisions of this act with respect to each other, they are deemed to have been enacted simultaneously.
