* ''Morris & Cummings v. State'', 62 Tex. 728, [https://texaslegalguide.com/images/62_Tex._728.pdf#page=11 738-39] (1884) ("But we are not pointed to any act of congress upon this subject whatever, and we certainly know of none which has attempted such a regulation. It is not enough that the harbor of Corpus Christi, and the water-borne commerce that passes to and from it, are within the general laws regulating the commerce of the country. . . .
