Lawyers, Fees In England.

NJ. D. conWayi in Cincinnati Commerciall
Even the greatest lawyers here
do not receive such fees as are fire.
ouent in America. Mr.. Sergeant
Parry told me recently that the fees
he heard of in America were such
as almost took an English barris-
ter's breath away. The English
litigant has to pay two firms in each
case-the solicitors who prepare and
the barristers who conduct his case,
and the payments are, therefore, di-
vided. There is not barrister in
England who gets more than sew
enty-fye thousand dollars year
which is about Mr.. Hawkins in
come-and there are only two, orat
the most three, that make over
fifty thousand a year. A thousand
dollars for one case is considered u
fancy fee.
Probably the low average of fees
paid for the every day legal work
done here is due in large part to
the survival of the old theory that
the lawyer is a learned friend Of
humanity in its difficulties, whose
advice is given solely for the re-
ward of virtue. theoretically they
are supported by honOraria as
the Pope receives Peters Pence
They are not supposed to receive
fees, that being too gross a form il
which to reward benevolence anC
learning. The honorarium is really
now fee, but it cannot be sueC
for, and consequently it has to b,
paid in advance, if the retained
counsel is expected to pay any at
tention to the case. In one or tw
things this old theory of the barris
ter is actually operative. lfa poo
criminal comes up for trial he o
: she may ask for any lawyer presen
} in the court to defend them, an
: such lawyer must do his very bei
) for the criminal. He must tax
his chances for payment, which, i
Y such cases, is rarely received, el
cept that the court gives each Law
yer so called on to defend a crimin
: the sum of two pounds-a nomin'
S sum that seems to be a kind of pr
9 caution against any barrister ev'
Z making capital by boasting of u
h requited services to the poor al
: friendless. The court also wish
n to preserve its attitude as the equ
It friend of all parties, and ready
J. assist the accused in their defenf
i The two pounds are never, | b
v lieve, allowed to be declined.

sion, you would say" "Well, the
illusion, if you like. When people
have reached an age which does not
leave much space for hope, it is a
pity to disturb the pleasures Of
memory" l could not press the
countess after that.
And now she is gone to realize
the bliss of an eternal "hOme."
Few beings have left behind them
SO blessed a legacy as the songs
which at once warm the heart and
embellish the household, whenever
and wherever they are sung.

\. Y. Cor. Chicago Tribune,l

N. I. OOr. OnlcagO lfiDuno'I
One of the morning journals
gives credence to statement which
has been in circulation at the Lotos
rooms for nearly a month that
Kate Field will shortly return to
America and marry a journalist
a critic himself, the story says. The
rumor connects the party with the
Tribune, but it may not be true, SO
l will for the present protect his
name. The gentle Kate is said
to have achieved a marked success
in minor parts on the stage in Eng
land, and her ambition is to make
the New York critics acknowledge
that she is mot that she may be,
but that she is) an actress capable
of sustaining leading parts. Miss
Field was never accused exactly Of
man-hating while in New York,
but she was known as one far re-
moved from susceptibility to the
masculine gender. Her lady friends
entirely discredit the story of mat
rimonial intent. They say she was
cut out for a literary spinster, and
used laughingly to say, "when | an
an old maid" etc. She is described
as a prodigious Notwithstanding
for the stage, keeping up journal
istic correspondence, going into SO
ciety, penning magazine articles
visiting libraries for new material
for literary productions-all going
on at the same time. One of he
intimates says her husband ough
to supply her with steam engin
to save her from wearing out.

Tie outside world have no idea what
K ansas can do when she gets at herself 10
fact, she sometimes does things which actu-

is found in an apple-bearing pear tree, dis
covered in the orchard of Mr.. Jas. Whit
lock, of Kickapoo township, a couple of
the specimens having been left in this office
last evening, one Of which measured about
five inches in circumference. The tree
from which the apples were taken pro-
duced, last year, . full crop of what is
known as the Bell pear; but this eeason
it seems to have snapped fruits with an
apple tree which stands about five fee, dis
tant. and which is in no way connected
with the pear tree, either by graft or other
wise. A fully mstured pear was taken from
the apple tree q few weeks ago. The tree
producing this centennial phenomenon still
retains its pesr-like appearance, and the
only way we can account for this digres-
sion from a custom which ha, been in
vogue among trees Of this species ever since
their introduction into the New World, was
an apprehension On the part OF the tree
that, possibly, short stock Of 'apple jack"
might occur in the Iilden campaign this
fall, and, in order to prepare for all emer-
gencies, il concluded TO 'chaDge off" and
