It is made the duty of each District Attorney to prosecute, in the Judi cial District for which he is appointed, all delinquents, for crimes and offences cognizable under the laws of the United States, and all civil actions in which the United States shall be concerned,

The Marshal for each District is required to attend the District and Circuit Court, and to execute throughout the District, all lawful pre cepts directed to him, and issued under the authority of the United States. He has power to command all necessary assistance in the execution of his duty. Before entering upon his office he must give bond with two sureties in the sun of twenty thousand dollars. Every Marshal, when removed from office, or when the term for which he is appointed shall expire, has power, notwithstanding, to execute all precepts which may be in his hands, at the time of such removal or expiration of office.

The clerks are appointed by the Supreme Court, and the several District Courts. The clerk for each District Court, is clerk also of the Circuit Court in such District. Each clerk is required to give bond in the sum of two thousand dollars, faithfully to discharge the duties of his office, and seasonably to record the decrees, judgments and determi nations of the Court, of which he is clerk. In case of the District Judge in any District being unable to discharge his duties, the clerk certifies all suits or actions, to the next Circuit Court to be held in the District; and also, by leave or order of the Circuit Judge, to take, during the disability of the District Judge, all examinations and depositions of witnesses, and make all necessary rules and orders preparatory to the final hearing of all causes of admiralty and maritime jurisdiction.

CIRCUIT COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES.

The Circuit Courts of the United States have original cognizance, conCurrent with the Courts of the several States, of all suits of a civil naure, at common law, or in equity; where the inatter in dispute exceeds,

exclusive of costs, the sum or value of five hundred dollars, and the United States are plaintiffs or petitioners; or an alien is a party, or the suit is between a citizen of the State where the suit is brought, and a citizen of another State; and have exclusive cognizance of all crimes and offences cognizable under the authority of the United States. (except where the laws of the United States otherwise direct,) and concurrent jurisdiction with the District Courts of the crimes and offences cognizable therein. But no person can be arrested in one district, for trial in another, in any civil action, before a Circuit or District Court. No civil suit can be brought before either of said Courts against an inhabitant of the United States, by an original process, in any other District than that whereof he is an inhabitant, or in which he shall be found at the time of serving the writ; and no District or Circuit Court has cognizance of any suit to recover the contents of any promissory note, or other chose in action, in favor of an assignee, unless a suit might have been prosecuted in such Court to recover the said contents if no assignment had been made, except in cases of foreign bills of exchange. The Circuit Courts also have appellate jurisdiction from the District Courts, under the regulations and restrictions provided by law.

From final decrees in a District Court, in causes of admiralty and maritime jurisdiction, where the matter in dispute exceeds the sum or value of three hundred dollars, exclusive of costs, an appeal is allowed to the next Circuit Court, to be held in such District. But no District) Judge (sitting in a Circuit Court) can give a vote in any case of appeal or error, from his own decision; but may assign the reason of such his decision.
