We have been favored with the following
hie Letter from the Attomey-Cenera) to ti e
Prefi.,- rt of the United States. As it F rves to
10 ‘ tll . e ‘LguLr case at Charleilon in its tre eol.
ciuis it cannot fail being acceptable to the read -r.
It is presumed, this letter has been circulated
among the different Cdle&ors of the United
States.

Silt,
I have read and considered the
papers and 'documents referred to rr.e
relative to the case of a tnundmus, re
issued the circuit court o ftht unitei
Slates lor the district of Sou ?li Carolina
to compel the collector of the port of
Charleston to grant ciearcnees to cer
vessels.
I’h': Srct cucetipiithat presents itself
is, wuc tnc court possessed the
I :o ‘* of iscumg a mandamus in such
a case?
A mandamus in England, is styled
a prerogative writ, ar.c! in that coun
■- / T a wared solely and exclusively
by the court of k sng’s bench.
‘i he constitution and the laws cf
the United States establish our judi
cial system. To these we nnist refer
in cider to ascerL in the jurisdiction cf
these respective courts, the extent of
their powers, and the ihvhb of iheir
authority.
T.‘;e “ Act to eslaUich the judical
court 3 cf t - United passed
on the 24ih cf September, 1789 de-
C. K-s ’ A e- dees ti.e jn icdiction of

c ■ • L; ,l’:e mcnLor it is specially*
~ ,v T<. 1 by the act of the third cf
; • r.y 1101, that lice suprenr?
court all have power to issue,writs
of mandamvs. This last act having
h r rcqeule.; and tiie former revived,
the qutTlon must rest upon the true
r.oiruction to be given to the crivl
o o
g;n „ act*
The eleventh section defines and
limits the jurisdiction of the circuit
courts. It is specially appropriated
to this single object. There are no
expressions in this section which can
fairly be interpreted to confer the au
thority of issuing writs .of mandamus,
Tor can the power be either implied
or inferred fiori any language it con
mins. It is true the proceeding by
andatnusin Lb gl. nd is c/. . the crown
■ ;,lc, as it'is termed, of the court cf
king’s bet eh. But it is a prosecution
rdatis to.-the ci\ ii right to enforce it,
and to obtain prompt rclYe:-?:; anil
not to punish criminally as in the case
of an offence. Ti e provision therf
