7b 7 Honorable, llie General AttemUy
of the State of North Carolina.
Gutxiukn : A joint resolution, passed
by your Honorable bodies, wss cent to tbia
omoe tome two asys sinoe. it is express
ed ia the following language : Resolved,
Senate eonoarring, That the Attorney
General it hereby rcqaeeted to render ai
soon ss possible to the General Assembly
aa opinion opoa the rights and interest of
the Bute in the Wilmington, Charlotte
and Butherford Railroad, under existing
laws.
This resolution is of a very comprehen
sive character, and has made it necessary
to examine a number of statutes relative to
this road and running through a series of fit
teen or sixteen years. It has likewise sug
gested a consideration of questions of the
gravest importance, arising out of a con
straotioa of the sots of the last LegUla
tsre knows as the Repealing Aots. With
every disposition to oomply with there
quest of the General Assembly, immediate
ly, I could not give aa opinion without
tisM for examination and some delibera-
tion. I can bow Soareely aeps-te-tbrow
araeh light upon matters obsoured by
gonoa eonflioting legislation.
This corporation was created by an aot
of the Legislature ratified Feb., 13th,
1855, and under thai sot and one supple
mental thereto parsed Hth Feb., 1855,
(he company was organized.
By Motion 9, of the aot it is provided,
That the affairs of the company shall be
managed and directed by a general board
to consist of nine Directors to be elected
by the Stockholders at their first annual
nveeting and at subsequent annual meet
lata." By an aot amendatory, it is pro
Tided, " That the Stockholders ia general
masting shall, from time to time, have
power to increase or diminish the number
of directors, and that the same shall never
exceed twsnty, aor be lees than seven."
The State originally owned no stock in
this company, but the Treasurer was an
thorized by the sot of incorporation to
adorns the bonds of the company to a
limited amount.
By aots of the Legislature pasted in the
yean 1858 and in I860, the State agreed
to szobangB bonds or loan the oompany a
certain amount specified in the set, and
take a lien on all the property of the road
as security ; under these aots of Assembly,
the Stats loaned or eiohanged bonds to
the amount of two millions of dollars, ac
cording to my information.
Next in order was the aot of 1856, entitled
"Aa Aot to enable the Wilmington, Char
lotto and Butherford Railroad to oomplete
its road, pay its debt to the 8tate," Ao.
By that aot the Company was authorised
to issao its bonds to the amount of foar
triSfnta of dollars and execute a mort
gage oa its property to secure" the same.
The previous lien of ths State to be post
poned sad made a second mortgage. By
aa ordinanoa of the Convention passed
February 6th, 1868, upon a surrender by
ths Oompany of one million fire hundred
tbonnnd dollars of its first mortgage bonds
the Lists agreed to endorse one million of
l8 rr-jaindec, nve hundred thousand to
be deposited ia the Treessrr as col lateral
asoonty. Thus far, the State owned no
stock ia this road, but had a mortgage, a
second morWrajre oa all the property oi
the Company, and was endorser of the
first mortgage bonds to ths amount of one
million of dollars.
On the 29th day of January, 1S69, the
act was parsed maxim the bUte a stock
holder. Ths first section provides : Tbat
the capital stock shall be increased to
seven millions of dollars, of which the
Etate was to BBbscribe four millions.
3d section, enbeoription to be paid io
woe pen bonds of the State for one thou
sand dollars each, to be delivered to the
vt'resideat of the Oompany.
' Section four Emits the number of Di
rectors to thirteen, of which number the
Governor shall sr point seven end tns
SBoeLholdera six.
It k further provided, upon payment of
one million of dollars of beads, there
shad bo a meeting of stockholders sad di
rector, sleoted and appointed as therein
Worried, sad areorganixaticsi tssmediate
tysTMUd. That .( the bends eeves
fee. niri aad twentr thousand shall be r-
tbiasd by theTreeeartr as eolleteral stoa-
tf aa sot ewrrteateaml April sta, 1869.
It is providd Uat the six eureetors to be
- saaseed ry tie stockholders, shall be ehoe-
wa py sivUhoUsa other thaa the State,
and that immediately upon tbe reorgnni
cation the Treasurer shall dolirer tbe re
mainder of tbe bonds exoept seven hun
dred and twenty tbousand dollars directed
to be retained, and thereupon a certificate
shall be issued to the State forelKUty
thousand snares. These aots were accept
ed by the Stockholders. One million dol
lars of bonds Were delivered to the Presi
dent, and the company was- reorganized,
directors were appointed and elected, and
subsequently two millions of dollars more
of bonds were delivered to the President
of the Company. Of those bonds one mil
lion of dollars was sold by Robert II. Cow
an, President, aa appears by bis report to
the Governor, end of the remaining two
millions which oame into the hauds of
Wm. Sloan, seventeen hundred thousand
dollars were hypothecated and threo hun
dred thousand , dollars were retained by
him, and eo fur as appears, are now in his
possaMion. Tbe ainoust of money re
ceived by these gentlemen, and how the
proeecda havo been expended ia stared in
their reports. The Treasury Department,
as stated by the Treasurer, paid in Janu
ary, 1870, interest on these bonds to the
amount of twenty nine thousand four bun
dled dollars.
On tbe 5tli day of February, A. D, 1870,
an sot was passed by the Legists ture eu
titlcd "An set to restore tbo credit of ths
State, ito." The first suction requires the
several Presidents aud other offices of
railroads, who have secured bonds or other
securities of tbe State for the construc
tion of railroads in which the State is in
terested, to give a full statement concern
ing the same.
The third section makes it tbe duty of
such President, or other oflioer, to return
these bonds and to acoouut for tbe pro-
oeods of sales, Ac.
The ninth section makos it au luduttuble
felony to refuse, wilfully, a compliance
with the provisions of this act. Tbo six
teenth section makes tbe introduction of
the bill, notice to all parties, of tbe pur
pore of the State, and thereafter forbids
any sale, transfer or disposal of her bonds,
in tbe bands of any cne, exoept bona fide
purchasers.
On tbe 8th day of Mareu, 1870, so-set
was passed in these words, "That all Acts
passed at the last aession of tbe Legisla
ture, making appropriations to Railroad
CompaoiM, be and the same . are hereby
repealed."
"That all bonds of tbe State which have
been issned nnder said aots, now in the
hsnds of any President or other officer, be
immediately returned to tbe Treasurer.
Ihe second section provides that all
money in the Treasury, levied and collect
ed under the provisions of said aots, are
appropriated to the uee of the State gov
ernment This section is perhaps modified
by an Aot of tbe lUtb of Alarob. 1870. di
recting tbe Treasurer to use $250,000 of the
Mpoqiai Tax money, and autnorixioff bim
to replace it oat of the first money collect
ed, Ac By another Aot passed the tame
day, the Treasurer was duected to deliver
fire hundred.t boat and first mortgsge bunds
to the Company .upon their compliance
with certain conditions. Tbe (Jump ny
was authorized to mortgage again for a
loan of two millions five hundred thousand
dollars snd States mortgage to be post
poned. These repealing acts were submit
ted to tbe Stockholders of tbe Wilming
ton, Charlotte and Rather ford Company,
and formally assented to Jane 1st, 1870.
This statement contains a compendium, as
far as l can asoertain, of all tbe Acts of tue
Legislature relative to this Railroad.
Jrrom a general view of the subject, I
think it must be manifest, that tbe object
and purpose of the Legislators in these
several Acts passed in 1870, was to relieve
the State of heavy liabilities ioourred, and
to sever her connection wun certain ilaii-
road Companies. As to the Act of March
the 8tn, io IV, language could scarcely
make it more comprehensive. All Aots
making appropriations to RailroaJs, to.,
are hereby repealed. Not simply the ap
propriations, but the Aots making the ap
propriations. This inductee tne Act oi
January 29th, 1869, as I think, for it was
one of tbe Aots passed at tbe session of
18C8-'C9. Under tbe Aot of 1869. tbe State
had a right to representation in the board
of directors of this Railroad, and the
Govornor was authorized to appoint seven
Directors. The power of the Governor to
appoint Directors must oeaio, I think,
with tne repeal of the Act by which it was
conferred.
It may not be improper to say that the
Executive Department has reoognized the
form and virtue of this repealing Aot by
ths appointment of Directors in the Wes
tern Railroad. The repealing aot restored
his power in that instanoe, and, aa I think,
takes it away in this. The oases are enalc
: ..
xt is oejooieu tnat ma aot is unconstitu
tional. But the Legislature might repeal
the sot of 1809, provided it did not inter
fere with vested rights nor impair the ob
ligation of contracts. What effect this re
pealing aot may Lava upon the rights of
thoto parties is not presented. But, eo
far as this Company is concerned, they
have fully assented to the aot, . and cannot
therefore complain. And it seems clear
that the State may relinquish her right of
representation. The Courts, it is true, in
construing: charters, will adopt that con
struction most favorable to the State. Yet
they cannot distegard the plain letter of
the law, although they may consider a
statute unwise or impolitic.
1 cannot suppose that it is necessary to
express a definite opinion upon the precise
interest whioa the State may nave In this
RajipMui, gae has an interest as second
mortgsge she baa outstanding bonds sub
scribed to this road, to the amount of three
millions of dollars. She has paid a com
paratively small portion of interest What
may he the fatore policy of the Sta e in
regard to these bonds cannot be foreseen.
Her interest may be contingent. Tbe
Company, too, may satisfy th. State and
return her bonds, and the proceeds of sale
of bonds. The Company have, by assent
ing to the act, so otten alluded to, made
themselves liable to the State for a return
oi Donas and their prooteds. Ibis is
plainly intimated by tbe Supreme Court,
The Supreme Court, in the ease of Me
Aden es Jenkins, have intimated that the
State has no interest aa stockholder in this
road. The point was not fairly before the
Court, bat the diotum is entitled to con
sideration aa coming from the highest
wran u mm otate.
The question is one of great interest
and importaaee. The interest of creditors
aa well as the State may be involved in its
decision. For any purpose of legislation
now pending, I cannot conceive that any
expression bom as npoa this point is
accessary or advisable. I reiterate the
opinion that the State has relinqaished
bar right of representation in tbe Board of
Director of tbe Wilmington, Charlotte A
Rntherford ttauroad Company.
