Horne, do pay to Mury 11 find (he Mini of £1, 020 00 as the amount due her us her share of reuts and profits, etc. This award wa* made tin judgment of tho Buperior Court. An ext rmion was issued by tho Olork iu fuvur of Mury E. Bird, commanding the Bueiiff to make tho money duo on said judgment, of tho goods aud chatties, lauds and teuemeuts of I. E. J. Horue, in the hands of J. B. G. Horne and T. N. W. Home, adminis trators, and in default thereof of the goods and chattels,lands and tenements of the aaid Joel and Thoums Lome. The Sheriff levied tho execution on certain described laud as the property of J. It. G. llorno and T. N. W. Horue. The defendants tiled au allidnvit of illegality to tho execution, on tho grouud that tho judgment was rendered against thorn os administrators, aud should have been levied on tho property of their testate, and not upon their individual property, and that to tho best of their knowledge and belief, tho plaintiff’s in terest iu tho judgment had been paid off aud discharged. Tho plaintiff demurred to tho defend ant's affidavit of illegality, which demur ror was sustained by tbo court, and the defendants' excepted. The defendants made & motiou to amend their affidavit of illegality, which was refused bv the court, and tho defendant excepted. In our judgment, tho court below erred in sustaining tho demurer to tho defendants' affidavit of illegality ou the statement of facts contained in tho record. Code 3515,- &81.

Complaint on note dated before June, 18(15, from j£krtow. HeCAY, J. Wherein a suit pending on a debt, dab d before June 1,1865, Iho plaintiff had hied the affidavit required by tho Act of October 18, 1770, «nd on the trial failed to show that the taxes due upon the debt ha<l been paid for a part of tbe time since the debt was contracted, but proposed iu open court, then and there, to pay into court for the use of tbe State tho taxes still due: Held, That it was error in the court to deny him the right so to pay the full amotiut of taxes due. Such a payment would have been a substantial compli ance with tho Act of October 13, 1870, and the plaintiff would have been en titled to a judgmeut on his debt. Where a note wits given for b ud hi an administrator, and he turned tho note over as assets to tlie guardian of the sole heir »t law, the maker thereof giving the guurdiuu u new note with tho ad minis* trator as security, this whh not such u no vation of the original debt for the laud as that the note is n< t still a debt con tracted for the purchase of the land.

On the trial of a bill filed by an ad ministrator of an estate against the lega tees and creidton to inurHhal tho assets, one of the creditors is not a competent witness to teatity aa to the nature and character of his contract with the de ceased, even though the witness only proposes to state facts showing the dig nity of the contract, and affecting only its priority. Where there was a settlement between one of tho executors of an estate aud the legatees, in which thero was turned over to tho legatees a note of the executor, with a third party as security, os a part of the assets of the estate, aud at the name timo tbe executor gave to the lega tees his individual note for the balance in his hands aud there was a distinct un derstanding that tho last noto was only given as evidence of tho umouut due and that tho executor was to bo liable as ex ecutor for tho amount of the same: Held, That the lost note was still a trust debt uud entitled to priority iu the distribution of assets, but tho iirst was not. , . When ono executor, having money in baud, loans it to another executor, tak ing his individual note for it, and in a settlement with tho legatee s, they take from tho executor loaning the money the note as assets, giviug him a full discharge and acquittauco of all liability: Held, That the noto thus turned over is not a trust debt as against tho maker of the note, aud his statement Unit it shall bo so considered does not make it such ns to give it priority over other debts in tho distribution of the estate of tho maker of tho note. Judgment ro- versed. , Linton Stephens, George F. Pierce, for plniutiffin error; B. Toombs, C. W. Du- Bosc, contra. Jas. P. Bowers, el. aL, re. It. G. Grimes. Equity, from Stewart. McCAY, J. Whilst an aduiiuiatrator de bonis non, has powi r to call upon the representa tives of his deceased predecessor to ac count with him, the heir* at law and creditors have also tho mom right upon a proper case made, but if the administra tor </« bonis non, failed so to do, tho heirs and creditors of tho first intestate can not sue tho administrator de bonis non for this failure, unless they show that ho knew of the devastavit, and was guilty of some special neglect, not equally churg- uble upon themselves. Warner, O. J., was prevented from pre siding in tho above case from Providen tial cause. Herbert Fielder, for plaintiff iu error; E. II. Beall, J. B. Wimberly, contra. Joel It. G. Horne and T. N. W. Horue, Administrators,rs. Littleton E. Spivey. Illegality, froru Sumter. 1. Au execution founded ou au award agaiust administrators iu their represent ative capacity, which hat been made tho judgment of tho court, must follow tho award, and can only issue against such administrators in their representative character, to he levied of tho goods, etc., of their iutestute. 2. If tho execution, on such an award, is issuod against the property of the in testate, and if none be fouud, then against tho individual proporty of the administrators, it is a nullity, so far as ks to subject the individual proper ty of tho administrators to tho payment of the debt, and if such property is levied ou upon affidavit of illegality, the facts not bciug controverted, the court should sustain the affidavit of illegality. Judg ment reversed. McCay, J., being of counsel, did not preside in this esse, llawkins A Guerry, for plaintiffs in rror; O. T. Goode, W. A. llawkins, A. U. Brown, represented by •». J.

R. Toombs, K. H. Pottle, for plaintiffs in error. Linton Stephens, contra. Tho Macon A Augusta Railroad Com pany rx. Frank L. Little executor.— Relief and Constitutional Law, from Hancock; aud jAcfcxon R. Johnson struct ion Actn of Congress, not to the Lcgislsturo of the provisional gpvern* ment organized under those Acts. 2 The Supreme Court of the United States have said, in White rs. Hart, at aL, iiifru, “the action of Congress upon the subject (the reconstruction measures) cannot be inquired into. Tbe cose i* dearly one iu w hich the judicial is bound to follow the action of the political de partment of the government, and i* con clude! by it.” Whilfl compelled to ooopt this dogma us luw, aud as perhups true, iu a limited degree, so fur us facts accomplished are concerned, us a general proposition I dis* sent from and protest agaiust it. !!. Under the recent decision of Die Supreme C urt of the United States in the coso of William White rs. John It. Hurt, uud Win. D. Davis decided December term, 1871, we are compelled to bold, that the reconstructed provisions! gov ernment of Georgia didnotexpire before June 12 h, 1870, when Congress enacted that the State of Georgia having com plied with tho reconstruction acts, aud the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the Constitution of the United States having been ratified in good faith by a legal Legislature of suid State, it is here by declared that the State of Georgia is entitled to representation in the Cougress of tho United States.” Upon the admis sion of her Senators and ltepresutativos uuder that act, says the court, “ihe con donation by tbo national government became complete. The coupluflion to our minds is inevitable, that up to the pas sage of that act, at least, tbe provisional S overument provided for by the act of [arch 2, 1807, still existed, 4. It follows that the session of the Legislature of 1870, which passed tho Act of October, 13th, of that year, was not a session of the General Assembly, after the second uuder the Constitution in the sense in which the Convention of 1808, used these words. Hence the act under review is not invalid because passed by the J>gisluturo more tlmn forty days after the commencement of its session. 5. It is at least doubtful whether the first four sections of the Relief Act of October 13tb, 1870, prospective in their operations as sound rules of construction require them to bp understood, so far impair the remedy of coutrugt# made prior to June, 1805, as to be unconstitu tional under the 10th seel ion of tho first articloof tho Constitution of tho United States. It is, therefore, the duty of the court to rofuso to declare thorn unconsti tutional 0. Tho first four sections of the Relief Act of October 13, 1870, must l e read in tho light of the title to that Act, aud in so far as they are not vuriant from it, tin y do not violate the 5th paragraph of the 4th section of article 3 of the Con stitution of Georgia, uud to that extent the court should give them effect. There fore, iu o!l suits pending at tho ijne of the passage of the Act for debts founded on contracts mode prior to Juno, 1865, tho taxes must have been paid, nud the affidavit tiled within six mouths after the Act passed; and in all suits commenced after its passage, at the time of tiling the writ, ou pain of having tbp pose dis missed on failure to do so. 7. If Congress or a State Legislature pass a law, within the generul scope of thoir constitutional power, the courts cannot pronounce it void merely because, in their judgment, it is contrary to the principles of natural justice. Caller rx. Bull. 3. Dallas 391). 8. A bill ot interpleader being filed by an administrator against^ he creditors of tho estate represented by bim, whoso claims aro antagonistic, aud some of the claims being founded on contrpets enter ed into before June, 1865, it is not neoes- sary for creditors holding such claims to Ule au uffldavit of tho payment of taxes with their answers, their claimfl lmyiog been brought into court by tho adminis trator and not by themselves. On tho trial of the case, bowover, they should make it clearly appear that the taxes have boon paid to entitle them to a decree for the payment of the cluima. P. Subscriptions to tin* stock of the Macon A Augusta Railroad Company, made beiore June, 1865, stand upon tho Hunie footing w»tli other debts contracted before that date; nud iu suits against the subscribers for tip umoqut of their sub scription, tln> payment of tnxca and the filing of the affidavit, as required by tbe Relief Act of 1870, is necessary. Judgment in the casu ol the Macon A Augusta Railroad Company rx. Fruuk L. Little, executor, affirmed. Judgment reversed in the case of Jackson 11. Johnson, administrator, rx. R. Stokes Sayre, cn tho grouud that the creditors holding claims fpnuded on contracts made before Juno, 1865, should have proved payment of taxes ou those claims to entitle them to n decree for the paymeut of tho claims. Linton Stephens, George F. pierce, R. H. Hill, H. L. Benuing, for plaintiff’ in error. C. W. Du Bose, R. Toombs, F. L. Lit tle, contra. McCAY, J., concurring. Tho act of October 13, 1870, deny ing the aid of the courts for the collection of certuiu debts until the taxes thereon have been pall, is not in violation of section 10, paragr aph 1, of thoCoustitu tion of tho Uuitod States. Said act is tho legitimate exercise of tho power inherent in the State to enforce upon defaulter^ the payment of the taxes due, and if it at all affects contracts between individuals, it is only incidentally, by reasou of the unlawful, willful and in sistent refusal of the holder of a debt to comply with his reasonable and proper duty to the public. Whether au not of tljo session of tho General Assembly of 1876, after forty days from its commencement, is void or not, is not a question of whether the Act is, as to its provisions, or as to its tide, or as to the mode iu which it was intro duced aud read und voted upon, is con trary to the Constitution, but a question of whether the Legislature, at the timo of its passage, was a legislative body at all—whether it liud any title to its official existence as a General Assembly. Whilst it ia not ouly the right but the imperative duty of tho judiciary to de clare legislative Acts iu violation of the Constitution void, it is not within the sphere of the judiciary to inquire if the Legislature at the time of the passiug of au Act is properly organized or properly in snasjou uuder the Constitution and la«s. The Legislature is itself, in the nature of thiugs, the proper judge of such questions and is rtsponsible to its coustmmco aud to the people only for the proper czerjiae of this judgment. The Geueral Assembly of this State, actually iu scssiou aud cugaged in the performance of legislative duties, ought at least to receive from the courts the oonsiderationffbey gi ant to any Executive officer, to-wit: Whilst they will freely timo of the act to exercise their respect ive functions. It is not in the power of this court, by any decision it may make, to declare the Acts of the session of the Legislature of 1870, after 40 days from its commence ment, void, since the members tbereot do all of them bold their commission*, and this court is now iu session by virtue and io consequence of acts passed by said session after the 40 days. If the acts be void, this court is illegal, ita memberunre only private citizens, and in tbo very act of giving its judgment ii renounces jurisdiction over the subject, and declares its decision to be only the opinion of three citizens clothed with no legal authority to act ns a court. The session ot the General Assembly of 1870 was not a session ot the General Assembly after the second under the present Constitution in the sense of those words os used in article 3, section 3 of the Constitution of 1868, and ita aemions were legal after the forty days without any vote of two-thirds prolonging the same. . _ tbs coutrsct of bis testator u subscriber for flfleeu • bares of tbe capital stock of Pie Macop k Audita Hallroad Company, to recover tbe amount due |or bis unpaid stock. On tbe trial tbs defendant made a motion to dismiss tbe plain tiff’s action, on tbe ground that It was a debt exist, lug prior to tbs first of June, 1866. and that no sffi It applied to tbe violation of tbe 10th section of tbe 1st article of tbo CousUtuUou of tbe United States, aud is therefore void. That aot ia also void, as having been passed in rlolstlon of tbe express pro visions of tbe Constitution of tbp State of Georgia. Tbo Constitution of 1868 declares that “no sesalou of tbe General Assembly, after tbe second, under this Constitution, shall continue longer than 40 days un : )pss prolonged by a yofo of (wo-thirds of each branch thereof." T»ila act was passed at the third session of the Gonsral Assembly, under the Constitution of of 186«. more than forty days after the commence ment of the third session, wbloh was not prolonged by a vote of two-third* of each branch thereof, and is, therefore, mill and void as a law of this fltate. My reasons for this Judgment were fully expressed iu my disseuUog opinion iu the case of Gorrnly, Or dinary. **. Taylor (not yet reported), and will not be agslu repealed. All legislative enactments which are to be binding upon tbe people as laws, must be enacted in pursuance at tbe requirements of the Constitution, and if not, wbsnever they in terfere with the rights of the citixeu, such citizen may appeal to tbe colirts and have them declared void; for tbo Constitution ofl868'exiir6sHiy declare* that “legislative acts in violation of till# Const tion, or tbo Constitution of tbe United States, void, aud tbe Judiciary shall so declare them." the courts may inquire luto tbo validity of legisla tive acts passed by tbe Qeueral Assembly, wheu sit ting within tbe time prescribed by tbo Constitution, much mo*» mgr they inquire into tbe valldit or pretended loguUlivu Swtp I'bich were passed at lime prohibited by the Constitution. bocau»e thitre is no legal presumption in favor of the validity of legtilsfive onactmeuts passed at a time expressly prohibited by the Constitution, although they may have tb« form and color of laws upon the face there of, the more especial! protended laws were Wthe at ■ ■I property. m«ut of the court m this esse, aud in c sou, adsmlnistrato'', n.
