LIST OF STATUTES, OTHER THAN THE FOUR CODES, REMAINING IN FORCE, AND OF THE AMENDMENTS THERETO, WITH REFERENCES TO DECISIONS RESPECTING THEIR CONSTITUTIONALITY. NOTE. From this table are excluded all statutes which can no longer be regarded as of any substantial effect, either because directly or impliedly repealed by the Codes or, though neither repealed by them nor otherwise, which have accomplished their purpose and have no other effect than to justify acts long since done by their authority, such as appropriation bills, grants of franchises, or of rights for a limited period, or directions or authorizations to perform acts which have doubtless already been done, or to contract obligations which have been satisfied, and statutes creating and providing for the government of municipal corporations which have become inoperative by the reincorporation of the same municipalities by or under subsequent statutes, either general or special 1850.
