witnesses above by tbe express order of the Judge and tb Attorney General This is only one instance to show that the effort on tbe pert of Judge Hall at elf vindication unworthy of pnbio to the charge that Comptroller Pickard had charged Judge Hall fora transcript it may be well to say tha tha Comptroller has received no perquisite whatever for inch work In this instance the matter waa referred to
