The umber of assistant or pee marshals ts not Hmited, and under Mr. foph ae Nets been two—Mr. L. P.

The law fixes the fees for recording at 5v cents for each instrament of 200 words or Jess, and 15 cents for each addi- tonal 100 words, and the usage of the office has been to pay the copyist one-third the fee received. In addition to recording the papers required to compare and index the work. Under this custom the recorder can Teadl'y make $5,000. There is not much pat- ronage under the recorder—a deputy (Col. G.
