19. In case any grand jury at any presenting term or assizes, as the case may be, shall neglect or refuse duly to present any money which, under the provisions of this Act or any other Act or Acts, such grand jury is or may be required to present upon the certificate of such chief or under secretary as aforesaid, or which by any Act or Acts is directed to be raised by grand jury presentment, the court at any such presenting term and the judge at any such assizes may and shall make an order directing the sum or sums which ought to have been so presented to be raised and levied as if the same had been so presented, and such order shall have the force and effect of a presentment; and the treasurer of the county shall insert the sum mentioned in such order in his warrant, and the same shall be applotted, raised, levied, and applied in like manner to all intents and purposes as if the same had been duly presented by such grand jury.
