The national bank acts were passed in 1863 and �1864, and provision was made for the punishment of eoun- �terfeiting their bills and passing the counterfeits, but there �was no reservation to the state in making these provisions. �Without such reservation, the states Kad no power left to them �to supplement the acts of congress by legislation covering �the same ground.
