The other day in the Circuit court
room a number of lawyers were discus
sing Con. John NJ. Harlan, now a
judge of the United States Supreme
court.
Il was in his Office long time" said
Mr.. Charles Godshaw, trustee of the
jury fund. 81 was just beginning the
practice of law then, and had not an
| Office on my own account. l remem-
Der he opened my eyes when he charg-
ed big fee for what then seemed little
work. He was engaged in an import
ant suit for one of the big New York
insurance companies, and had 10 pre-
pare his brief that night.
He forgot it till about8 o'clock that
evening. when he came around and
went to work with a LARRY, as the brief
had to be finished before morning. At
his direction got down alarge number
of law books and handed them toshim.
as he wished to consult authorities. He
had hardly well begun when the door
opened. and in walked the president Of
the company for whom he was prepar-
ing the suit.
i want to ask your advice about
the wording of our policy he said.
The general refused. saying he had
no time.
1T will only take you few min
utes, urged his client. and it is all i'm
portant that the matter receive imme-
diate attention
LAS he was not to be put of, the gen.
eral asked him 10 state his point, but
went on with his work. He hardly
paused to hear the policy read. and
without looking up from q book. told
him to change about four words. as
well as / can remember. His client
thanked him and went out.
"A few days later Gen. Harlan told
me to enter q charge on his books
against the insurance company of S.
600 for advice, naming the day when
the incident have related occurred. l
could scarcely believe my ears, and
pretended to misunderstood the
amount. He repeated it, however. and
l entered the charge almost dumb
founded. Six months later he directed
me to send the insurance company the
bill for his services, including the S.
600 item for advice. l did so, and in a
few days there came a check for the
whole amount. accompanied by most
complimentary letter from the presi-
dent, stating that the change he had
suggested had been of the greatest val
ue to them in their policies.
"Bear in mind that when he was con-
suited he was preparing brief in a
case of importance. Seemingly his at
tention was not distracted from that
work, and l think had right to be
astonished. " Louisville Courier-Jour-

Grants Cigar.

Apropos of General Grants illness,
says writer in The New York World,
the late Thurlow. Weed once told me a
story that it recalls. asked the venera-
BILE editor to what he attributed his
firm health and length of days. Il see
that Peter Cooper assigns rigid tenn
perance as the cause of his" he
answered with laugh. ..Mine is due.
1 think, to having always sat up all
night and eaten and drank whatever 1
pleased. For forty years l took a
hearty dinner, generally at II or l
O'Clock every night, and never had
any trouble to sleep. l always drank
with the boys and politicians; l drank
everything, but not much at q time.
and for more than half q century l
smoked ten or twelve cigars every day
when l could get them. In the sum-
mer of 1867, being in Saratoga, l
lounged down to the spring one morn
ing with cigar in my mouth. On the
way met my old friend, DR.. Freeman.
coming back with some other gentle
men. As we passed each other he
leaned over to me and exclaimed, Stop
smoking!' The salutation was so sud-
den and such an odd one that it stuck
in my crop. l thought about it all day
and wondered what it meant; and after
din=er called up at his room. He ex-
planned to me that he thought l had
smoked long enough; that l was an
old man, and habitual smoking was
sure to hurt me-in fact. he wasn't
sure but it had already hurt me. l
was convinced, and told him l would
never use the weed any more. He said
I had better taper off. but told him I
