Sham Prosecutions.
SUSPECTED FRAUDS ON THE GOVERNMENT IN

ALABAMA.
The accounts of the marshals and district at
torneys sent to the first controllers Office show
a str.ng condition of affairs in the southern
district of Alauama. The fees of the United
States commissioners, district attorneys, &C.,
for the prosecution of negroes for cutting TIM
ber from the government land and other
offenses against the statutes amount to about
$125,OOO, and there is NO apparent good result
ing from The prosecutions. Tue offenders
are seldom convicted and still more seldom
punished. The Treasury officials think the
depredations are encouraged for the sake of
ices they afford the prosecutors. A letter to
this effect was written to Land Commissioner
Sparks by Deputy First Controller Garrison,
and the land office and Commissioner Sparks
has assured the Treasury officials OF his determi-
nation to prevent sham prosecutions.
