The NaRroLg CoLLEcTox's RELIEF CAsE.---
Alusioa has been already made to the bill
for the relief OF the Sureties Of jesse L. SIM
kinS. deceased, late collector Of the port OF
Norfolk. The circumstances of the case are
As follows: Simkins was collector IN 1861 !,
and after the breaking out Of hostilities Gov
ernor Letcher transmitted to him an order
through General Huger forbidding him 10
make any further disbursements on account
Of the United States. The money belonging
10 the United States. amounting to over
900, WAS thsn deposited by Simkius with
the Safe Of Virginia, as 1t was thought It
would I've secure to the United States, what
ever the result of the war.
The United States has already obtained
Judgment against Simkins's sureties for
Sll,-95 Of this amount, and suit Is now
pending for the balance. In 1872 the sure
ties of Simkius petitioned the General AS
scmbly Of Virginia TO order the amount de-
po,ited with the State authorities in 1861 to
| be returned to the United States. The
Legislature referred the matter to the Attor.
| ncy. General OF the State. who decided that
