Whereas the Constitution only defined the judiciary as vested in one Supreme Court and in various inferior courts that Congress was to define, Congress passed the Judiciary Act of 1789, which established the entire federal judiciary. The act provided for the Supreme Court to have six justices, and for two additional levels: three circuit courts and 13 district courts. It also created the offices of U.S. Marshal, Deputy Marshal, and District Attorney in each federal judicial district. The Compromise of 1790 located the national capital in a district to be defined in the southern state of Maryland (now the District of Columbia), and enabled the federal assumption of state debts.
