| Sir,-Your letter OF the 18th inst. is received,
stating that individuals have performed services as
Jurors &c, at courts during the official terms OF
your predecessors, who have not been paid-some
of whom hold the Clerks certificates OF such SER
vices-others having signed the abstracts and re-
ceipts, AID the acknowledgement Of the persons
who were hSmery Marshals. In the latter class
Of claims the only remedy upon the signeI Of the
acknowledgment. BY signing the abstracts and
receipts, they have given vouchers against them
selves, acknowledging payment which enabled the
MaIshals 10 obtain credit aud settlement Of the
accounts. As far regards the u. States they
have been once paid, and this Department has no
power by law to pay thsm second time.
Where clerks have given certificates of the per-
formance of services whether official or otherwise
40 presumption seems to be raised BY the posses
sion of such papers against the paymen, of such
services BY the Marshal. Directions cannot taere-
fore be given 20 pay them. II you should under
taks to disburse the public money in your hands
Tor that purpose, aud il should turn out tina, of
your predecessors had Received credit for paying
for the same service, you of course must los. the
amount.
The only safe course iha, occurs TO me is either
to send these Clerks certificates to the First Comp
troller, such abstract as will enable him to
trace them in the Marshsls accounts by showing
the year, term, county and amount Of each claim,
and await his instructions 10 their payment.
