observed at the State-Treasury in the colonies shall be applicable at the colonial
 treasuries, until otherwise prescribed by ordinance. Each of the colonial councils shall,
 however, yearly appoint two of its members for the purpose of occasionally examining
 the cash deposited in the chief chest as well as that in the keeping of the treasurer,
 comparing the same with the account. The amount of security to be given by future
 treasurers or collectors for the collections entrusted to them, is to be determined by
 ordinance.

 65. The yearly colonial accounts are to be classified in accordance with the
 budgets, and to be laid before each respective colonial council, and an extract of these
 accounts shall be published in print. After a general revision of the accounts by a
 committee appointed for that purpose, which committee has the right of demanding all
 the elucidations that may be requisite, the colonial council may through a memorial to
 the king complain of such errors in the accounts which in its opinion cannot be
 decided by a rectifying remark of the council itself.

 66. The administrative revision and decision of the colonial accounts shall,
 until otherwise prescribed by ordinance, be effected according to the rules hitherto
 observed for revising the State-Treasury's colonial accounts.

 VI. 67. The common and statute-law of Denmark shall as hitherto be applicable
 in the colonies, as more accurately defined by the laws and ordinances.

 68. The exercise of the judiciary authority can only be regulated by laws or
 ordinances.

 69. The judges are in their calling only to be guided by the laws. They cannot
 be dismissed except by a judgement; neither can they be removed against their wish,
 except in such cases where an alteration of the courts of justice be effected, or where
 they are also entrusted with administrative duties. A judge who has attained his 65th
 year may, however, be dismissed, but without loss of his income.

 VII. 70. The evangelical-lutheran church, which is the Danish national church,
 shall be supported from the public funds. Contributions towards the ecclesiastical
 institutions of other denominations may be granted by ordinances.

 71. Citizens have the right to assemble in congregations to worship God in
accordance with their convictions, provided, however, that nothing be taught or
practised contrary to morality or public order. Religious sects whose doctrines must be
considered dangerous for the state or to the public welfare may be prohibited by
ordinances.

 72. No person can on account of his religious persuasion be deprived of the
enjoyment of civil or political rights, nor can any person on this account refuse to
discharge any of the general duties incumbent on a citizen.
