George Mlontlggue Sanforld, George Woodhiouse Ciirrie and Sir Philip Rose, as trustees of the Foreign and Colonial (iGv ernmenl Trust in Eng and. purchased thirty eight bonds. of $1too each, of the State of Louisiana, which have bieen issued uin der an net of the (General Assembly of this State, a proved Januailry 3, 1570. UDon presenting these bonds to the Board of Litquidation to be funded, they were refused eIciause the bonds were issued in aid of Ihe Blo'uf and Crocodile Navig tien Company, anti all the inids of that Issue had been declared of doulbtful validity by the supplemental funding act. This act prohibits the Iloard of Liquida tion from funding any bonds mentioned in this liate des poserilts until they have been declared by this court to be legal and valid obligations of this State, and that they were issued in strict conformity to law and not in violation of the constitution of this State or of the United States. (Ac s 1875. p. 110.) Thereupon the plaintiffs in stltuted this suit for the purpose of obtaining from this court a decroe affirming the legality and validity of i he bonds in question. L. B. Binnose,of NewYork, intervened, claim ing ownership of fifteen other bonds of sanme denomination and issue, alleging a like pre sentation of his bonds for funding and a like refusal,and praying a like decree. An inter vention of this kind seems to be sanctioned by the act. anti no objection is made to it. The defendant answered by a general denial and a special averment that the bonds held by plaintiffs had none of the characteristics re quired by the supplemental funding act. The auswer to the intervention is the same in sub stance. There was judgment in favor of the plaintiffs and intervenor, and the defendant ap peals. It will she observed that the object of this and similar suits is not to obtain a judgment against tihe State for the amount of the bonds. The de eree we are to reuder is assimilated to a special verdiet of a jury who have been charged to as certain or ind ceurtain facts, i. ., do the bonds Possess the requisites enunciated in the act of 1875. which it is essential they should have in order to justify the Board of Liquidation in iunding them. The General Assembly passed an act granting the aid of the State to the Bo.uf and Crocodile Navigation Company, by which the Governor was authorized to issue the bonds of the State to the amount of eighty thousand dollars in fa vor of the company. It empowered the presi dent and secretary of the company to sell or pledge the honds thus issued in such quantities as they may deem necessary to raise money for the completion of the work of making the Iknuf and Crocodile navigable. H hether the two things designated by these words were canals or bayous, or stranmlets, or large bodies of water nowhere appears in that act, which pro vides further that all the rights and privileges of the company are pledged, hypothecated and mortgaged to the State to secure the payment of the bonds issued in its aid, and thd interest that may accrue thereon. Acts 1870. p. 21. The bonds have at their head the words "State bond in favor of the Bhuuf and Crocodile Navi gation Cumpanv." and run thus: "Tue State of Louisiana is indebted to Henry C. Warmoth or bearer in the sum of one thousand dollars." etc. and are signed by "H. C. Warmoth. Govern,,r of the State of Louisiana." and are counter signed by the Secretary of State. It is admitted that the signitary of the bonds is also the payee. The testimony of all the plaintiffs was taken, from which it appears they bought ihirtT-eight of these bonds in London on the eighth of April 1870, three months after their date. and paid for them £81 a. 10ed., a spa exoeed that at hb the can now fusad in Louistana oonsols. The lntervenorr'a test y Is that he ef* lmarke at New are prt t e un u rule oi om morc al m, c sheltres thetmtrom all latent eluitles between the maker pid the payee-that they had not t loo further than or behind the broad seal of the State, which assured them of tne genuineness and legality and validity of the securities thus purchased. If this rule of commercial law is applicable without reserve to the bonds of this State, what signifleance are we to attach to the act of 1175 ? The funding act provided that all obligations of the State might be exchang'ed for Ponsolidated bonds at the rate of sixty cents on the dollar, and constituted it hboard to liqut date these obligations, and give to the holders of any valid oand or warrant, in ease of its rjectlion by the board. the right to apply to any proper court for re lief, Acts of 1574, p. i9. In the following year the supplemental funding act eInuIIterate'l bonds amounting to over $14ii'tei000, which it declared "quustioned and doubllted as 'o their legality and validity " and expressly and in terms prohibited the hoard from funding any of the bonds in that hill until this court haId le eiared that they were valid oblllgations, ant that they had been issued in conformity to law, and for a valid consideratlon. If the holders of these "quelnstioned" bond, who are purchasers before natlurity for a vlllll able consideration, are entitled to have their bonds funded hbeause they thus ptlrih.tsed them, why bhould the G(eneral Assembly impose upon them the vain and useless formality of obltaining ia decree from this court upon any unuality of the bonds? Of what avail is an inquiry touching the valhllity of a bond, or its issuane"lo in conformity to law. if the tact that it is Invalid and that it was not issued in coDnforllit V I llaw will not affect the rights of the holder? Clearly, this rule of commercinl law dloes not atply here. The t4ate can be su.ed inl hier own courts onlly by thr pertmissionl, and in the Illanenr andI for the purpo-es indicated by Ier.
