[Appeal; suspension pending reversal; filling vacancy.]

From a judgment of removal, appeal may be taken to the supreme court in the same manner as from a judgment in a civil action, but until such judgment is reversed, the defendant is suspended from his office, and pending the appeal, the office must be filled as in case of vacancy.
