A Great English Lawyers Fees.

As all sorts of legends, for the most part
full Of exaggeration, circulate respecting
the earnings Of successful barrister, we
may give the actual amounts Of Mr.. Bran
wells fees. In the sixth year after his call
his income was 1850; in the seventh and
eighth years 1t had risen to ~, 1877 Is. and
81 ,538, and there Is note in the Textbook
of the latter year that Bowling, the well
known law reporter, had bet him din
ner for four that In three years he would
confess to having passed all juniors on the
home circuit In 1851 he was made, with
universal approval, queens counsel by
Lord Cranworth, and In that year his fees
amounted TO a3,4l4. After he took silk
his practice advanced by leaps and bounds,
as the following figures show: First year,
e4,549; second, 20, SAG; third, e., LOT;
fourth, GLASS. During his last year at
the bar his fees were nearly $4,000, very
large professional income In days when
fees were much smaller and rcfrcshers far
tarer than they now are. Temple Bar.
