A sherif cannot be allowed an additional compensation for executing an attachment over and above his prescribed fees, unless he is put to trouble or incurs expenses in taking possession of or in preserving the property attached. Where a sheriff attaches the interest of a defendant in a mining company, and the parties thereupon compromise the claim for a specified sum, the sberiff is enti. tled to the fees prescribed by the Revised Statutes for his services, as follows: Fifty cents for the service of the attachment; nineteen cents for a copy of the attachment, and twelve and a half cents for returning it. He is not entitled to poundage, because he has not attached any property he could sell by virtue of the attachment. Before Justice Balcom at chambers, Binghamton, March 29, 1865.
