THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 2G, 1869. TIIKIIISTOKYOI'TIIE FRENCH 1MR. "We mnko tlio following extracts from a re view in the London Attn wvum of a work re cently puMislio.! in Edinburgh, entitled "An HiHtoiii'nl Sketch of tlio rroneh Bar, from its Origin to tlio Present Day," by Archibald Young: Thilip tlio Bold "imposed upon advocates the obligation of swearing that they would only take charge of those causes which they believed to bo just, the lei'usul to take the oath being punished with interdiction." There were, howover, occasions on which tho prac tising bnrrister could not comply literally with the injunctions of politeness and com plaisnnt miavily, but. was required to give his client'H opponent the lie in very oll'ensivo though conventional language. For instance, in applying for permission to test tho justice of a claim by judicial combat, counsel woro obliged to give and take tho lio direct; but in discharging this function of vituperative allegation advocates were careful to say that, in thus speaking words of high disdain and insult, they were only speaking ollicially ami from no sentiment of personal disesteem for tho honorable gentlemen whom it was their painful duty to accuse of falsehood and theft. Having concluded his address to the bench, the advocate who applied for a judicial order authorizing a trial by combat, threw his client's glovo into court, thereby making the wnger of battle. Whereupon the counsel for the defense, if ho objected to ho rude and insecure a way of deciding a question of fact or point of law, offered arguments against tho application, and added: "In case tho Court should think that the statement made by tho opposite party is sullicieut to sup port the wager of battle, my client denies the facts set forth; on the contrary, he atlirms that ho who has caused these allegations to bo made lies, and is ready to support this by himself or by his champion, and thoroto pledges Lis gnge." 'Whereupon giving his gage, tho defendant, in his own person, ad dressed the Court in the familiar "you're an other" strain. If the Court authorized the combat, the plaintiff and defendant were left to settle their differences in the lists by light ing to the death, or till one of them cried craven. But it was held that if, through in advertence or excessive zeal, the counsel of cither party made, or appeared to make, his client's cause a personal atl'air, by putting tho offensive parts of his address in tho form of direct and personal ailirmntion instead of oflicial statement, it was held that the principal against whom ho appeared might make him a party to tho quarrel, and oven elect to light him instead of crossing lances or breaking cudgels with his employer. "An toine Loiscl, in his 'Dialogue des Avocats,' " says tho author, "makes mention of an advo cate named l'abrefoi t, who was on tho point of being compelled to enter tho lists in por son, because, whilst stating the case for Ar mand de Montaigne, one of the parties in a judicial combat, he allirmed that ho was ready to make good his averments with his body in the field, without taking caro to make it clear that he said this for his client, and not for himself. Those present on the occasion thought this a capital joke, and tho unlucky Fabrel'ort was much laughed at for Lis mistake." Amongst Sir. Young's stories illustrative of the domestic interests and private relations of the French law yers of past time is a droll anecdote of Dude, the judicial scholar and writer of tho sixteenth century, who was so absorbed iu tho studies and practice of his profession that, on being informed that tiro was consuming his house, he replied to the messenger who had brought him news of the mishap, "Tell my wife; 1 don't meddle with domestic affairs." More fortunate than Undo, whom he resembled in devotion to Lis profession and disregard for all other cares, Ilenrion had no wife to disturb him with announcements that his kitchen chimney had taken lire. 'When tho first Na poleon asked Ilenrion why ho had never mar ried, tho advocate replied, "Upon my word, sire, I never had time." But the story of the French bar is bright with incidents which show that devotion to legal study neither deadens the affections nor leaves lawyers without time for the softer sympathies; and of the anecdotes which exhibit tho tine hu manity of French lawyers there is none grander and more pathetic than tho record of Ared de Loiserol's death during the lleign of Terror. Together with his sou, Ared do Loiserol Lad been thrown into prison, where they occupied tho same chamber on the night preceding the day appointed for tho younger captive's execution. Disturbed by anticipations of final separation from his child, tho elder Loiserol passed tho night in sleeplessness whilst tho son slumbered tran quilly. Tho morning came, oud tho younger Loiserol was still unconscious, when tho authorities summoned him to endure tho ap pointed death, and seizing tho opportunity for a sublime exhibition of parental dovoted ness, tho father answered the summons, was accepted by tho officers, and "perished, a victim to Lis paternal affection, tho night lef ore tho fall of llobespicrre." The fees of the French bar in olden lime were moderate, but they seem to have gene rally exceeded tho payments made to the counsel of feudal England, l'hilip the Bold ordained that no advocate should receive a larger fee than thirty liens Turiioix, a sum equivalent to about X'M of our money. "Ad vocates were to swear that they would receive nothing above that sum, directly or in directly, and they were liable to be declared infamous, and to bo perpetually interdicted for any violation of this oath." How long tLis legislative interference with tho natural remunerations of labor deprived advocates of part of their duo rewards is uncertain; but that the restriction came to bo disregarded in the course of six generations, wo may infer from the regulations made by Charles tho Seventh for the government of the Bar, which, making no mention of a maximum fee, merely enjoin advocates "to bo moderate in their fees, both to; pleadings and writings, which seems to show that tho old regulations restricting them to thirty Uq,'c Turnoix had fallen into disuse." A century later tho ad vocates Lad raised their demands, and insisted on such heavy fees that they incurred much otlium amongst the populace and resentment in higher quarters. To restrain the greed of lawyers by fixing clearly upon them the obloquy of whatever extortions they might commit, the ordinance of Blois, promulgated by Henry the Third, required advocates to give signed receipts for the fees paid them bv their clients; whereas their ancient prac- y - . i i. ,.ntn ..i: tice cad oeen to iuuho no wmi-cu acknow ledgments of the sums rendered to them for professional services. The resistenoe of the Bar however, rendered the ordinance futile, though Sully, in tLe following reign indig nant at tLe extortionate maltreatment of Lis relative, tLe Duke of Luxembourg, who Lad been compelled to pay to an advocate tLe fee of 1iOO crowns, a sum. nearly equal to 41500 in tLe present day insisted tLat the rule sLould be enforced. Whereupon tLe Javvera. protested agoiufit the ifidjgiuty put upon their honor; and, finding their protests of no avail, Lad recourse to a co-operative pro cess that would now-a-dnys be tertnod "a strike." "Their repeated and respectful re monstrances having beon ineffectual, the ad vocates went, two and two, in a body, to lay down tho functions of their office, deciding upon 'voluntarily abandoning, the profession of advocating rather than obeying a law inju rious to their honor.' Four hundred and seven advocates thus solemnly protested against the ordinance of Blois. when tho Parlia ment met, there were no advocates to plead. Justice was at a stand still, and tho capital on tho verge of an outbreak." The strike ended in the triumph of tho advocates, who resumed their usage of demanding ex orbitant fees in the namo of justice, and de clining in the name of honor to acknowledge tho receipt of them. With similar success, but for a better object, the Parisian Bar, dur ing tho troubles of the Fronde, resisted tho unscrupulous policy of Cardinal Mazarin with almost perfect unanimity. The occasion of this strike amongst the wearers of tho long robe was tho Cardinal's banishment of Oruer Talon, on the compulsory retirement of which able magistrate "tho Bar refused to appear and plead, and nothing could shake their resolution. The Cardinal then issued a de cree, and procured its registration, empower ing the prnriin iirx to plead, even in appeal cases, instead of advocates." But tho ad vocates held out; and on the prornriurx being found incompetent to discharge tho functions of their professional superiors, Omor Talon was recalled and replacod, and tho bar en joyed a signal victory, to the equal surprise and confusion of 51. Rose, the one advocate who, to curry favor with the powerful Cardi nal, had had the shameless audacity to sepa rate himself from his order, and during tho continuance of the strike to appear in court and apply for judgment by default. The course, by which Cardinal Mazarin vainly endeavored to terrorizo tho French barristers on strike into submission, was adopted with another result in England, during Charles the Second's reign, by Francis North, who. whilst Chief Justice of the Common Fleas, crushed the "dumb-day" rebellion of tho sergeants by threatening, in spite of their monopoly of practice in his court, to hear utter-barristers and even attorneys argue tho causes in which the coif-wearing malcontents should decline to appear. That the French advocates of the eighteenth century demanded large fees aud earned princely incomes may be inferred from the splendid and dazzling appearance which their leaders made in the society of tho capital. By moderate fees, notwithstanding tho magni tude of his practice, the superbly handsome Normaud, "tho Eagle of the Bar," would huvo been unable to maintain his sumptuous house and magnificent equipages. Like Normand, his immediate precursor in tho eighteenth century, derbier, who died tuif'n nor ot tho order of advocates in 171, drew enormous sums from his clients, which he squandered on sumptuous and luxurious living. He is said to have received a single fee of i'KXM from the Company of the Indies, and i'i!i),ui)0 for his successful conduct of a single cause in which Sieur Cadet was his client. Perhaps the most singular fee accorded by client to counsel in Franco or any other country was the honorarium by which Char lotte Corday expressed her sense of obliga tion to her chivalrous advocate, Chauveau-Delagarde.- "You have defended me in a generous and delicate manner," said tho "angel of assassination" to Chauveau-Dela-garde, when her condemnation had been pro nounced; "it was the only proper defense. I thank you for it: it has mode me have a regard for you of which I wish to givo you a proof. These gentlemen inform me that my pro perty is confiscated; I owe something in tho prison, and I leave to you the payment of tho debt." The heroine who could thus pay debt with debt was the angel of insolvency as well as of assassination, and instead of putting an end to her life, France should have implored her to exercise her genius to liberate her country from the burden of its pecuniary obli gations. Of the pleasant and, let us hope, well-attested stories in Sir. Young's volume, the fol lowing is a specimen: "The Constitution of 17'.! virtually abo lished the French republic, and established in its stead a consulate. It also brought about a judicial reorganization, and the jar whoso members had all along kept up tho spirit of brotLerhood and some degree of discipline began again to consolidate itself. Iu tho winter of 1S00, the profession was greatly scandalized by a circumstance arising out of tho intimacy subsisting among its mem bers, and tho perfect confidence they re pose in the honor of each other. Au ad vocate of tho name of Gatrez an ablo man, but addicted to raillery and practical jokos one day called upon Llaque, and mlornieu him that he hod been consulted by tho poultry-merchants of the town of La Flocho, in a question with tho poultry-merchants of Le Slans, in regard to a monopoly objected to by the latter. Ho showed a memoir, signed by himself, for (ho merchants of La Fleche, stated that ho had confined himself to in ducing the objectors to present a petition to tho Sliuister of Police, and concluded by ask ing Blaque for his signature. Blaque some what rashly signed the paper upon tho sta'.e ment of Gatrez, and the latter, fortitiod by this signature, proceeded to call upon a num ber of other advocates. To those who desired to read the document that ho wished them to sign, Le answered that he would call again; but from the rest of his brethren he obtained twenty other signatures, among them some of the most illustrious names in tho profession. He forthwith printed the memo rial with these names attached; and, to the astonishment and horror of those who had signed it, and to the scandal of tho whole body of advocates, it turned out to bo a pas quinade of twenty-four pages, entitled 'Ques tion of State for the Fat Pullets of La Fleche against those of Lo Mans,' full of tho most incredible absurdities, narrated in a style of pompouB burlesque. Cicero, Julius Ctesar, Theseus, Achilles, Arria, Lucullus, Voltaire were referred to, and nothing was left un done to compromise the too confident signers of the document. Tho ridicule was inevi table; but the Bar drew from it the useful lesson never to give signatures in judicial affairs as a matter of confidence, and without knowing what they wore signing." With respect to tLe professional education of FrencL advocates, the author observes: "According to existing regulations, tho education required in order tobecome a mem ber of the French bar is of a very high char acter. The student must obtain the diploma of Jhtchelier-ex-httrex at certain public schools, and must then present himself at tLe Ecolu de, Droit, wLere Lo is inscribed as a pupil, and wLere Le studies under certain professors for a period of tLreo years, attending lectures on Roman law, on Le Code. Napoleon, on the study of law generally, on criminal legisla tion, on civil and criminal procedure, ou ad ministrative law, on the law of nations, and on the history of Roman and FrencL law, together with conferences on the Pandects. Ue must also write theses un the Roman, law, And on criminal and commercial law. Ho must tLon undergo examina tions on all tLcse different sub- Iocts, and if Le succeeds in passing them, le receives, at tLe close of Lis tLird year, the diploma Lirencie en Droit, and is entitled to be sworn before tho court and called to the bar. If, however, Lo wishes to obtain the higLcr degree of Doctor of Laws, wLich is necessary for those who aspire to become pro fessors in any of the departments of local education, he must attend a fourth year at the Kcvle (lit Droit, compose a thesis, and submit to certain additional examinations. This last mentioned degree is also a recommendation, though not an absolute necessity, for admis sion to judicial and magisterial functions. The diploma of Licentiate costs ((, the de gree of Doctor about X2'.i more." CodsVcy of Monition. A correspondent of tho London AUnmi urn writes as follows: Tho hero of tho first Crusade Is said to have been the son of a count of Bouillon. There was n Eustace, Count of Boulogne, of Guisnes and Terouenne, who figures largely in our an nals. Ho visited England before the eon quest, nnd married Goda, a sister of Edwavd the Confessor. Returning homewards with Lis bride, Le got into a discreditable squabble with tho people of Dover, and embroiled tlio whole nation so effectually that Earl Godwin and his family were banished in 10.11. In this journey he was tho precursor of Duke William, whoso subsequent visit, made while Saxon influences were at a discount, may Love been owing to Lis representations. In KHIi! Lo joined William in his memorable ex pedition, and, performing prodigies of valor at Hastings, was rewarded with land in many countries: much of it being tho forfeited pro pel ty of his old opponent Godwin's family; notably. Westerham, in Kent, and Witham, in Essex. Besides his marriage with tho widow ed (.Soda, or Godgifo, mentioned above, he sub sequently wedded Ida of Lorraine, sister, and apparently heiress, to Godfrey lo Bossu, Duke of Lothariugia. He had three sons: 1. Godfrey of Bouillion, Slarquis of Auvers, Duke of Brabant and Imxxr Lorraine, and King of Jerusalem: 2. Baldwin, Count of Edessn, second King of Jerusalem; It. Eustace, Eorl of Boulogne, tho only one who appears to Lave left issue. He married Slaria, daughter of Slalcolm, King of Scotland. Slotilda, Lis daughter and heiress, married Stephen, Earl of Blois, afterwards King of England. King Stephen gave Witham, which he thus inherited, with other immense possessions, to the Templars. His only sou, Eustace, Earl of Boulogne, who died young, also dealt in the samo manner wit h other pro perty derived from tho same source. I do not know the fate of the first Eustace. Ho opposed William's Justiciaries in lot;?, lied from Eugland, was reconciled, returned, and lived to light again in tho reign of William Rufus. In Domesday Le is always called "Count Eustace." Clear os all this may seem, it is open to doubt. Sir. Wright, in his "llis toryof Essex,'-calls Godfrey yrondxon of this Eustace. The "Penny Cyclopedia" says (V., L'TOJ that Godfrey's father was named Gus tavns. None mention a wife, yet, according to an entry in Domesday, he appears to have been married when young. In Domesday, under tho county of Surrey, are mentioned many possessions of Geoffrey do Slaudevillo, a powerful Norman boron. I le was Portreeve, or Governor, of Loudon for the Conqueror. He possessed ouo hundred and eighteen lord sLips in various counties; Lad Lis headquar ters at Walden, in Essex, and founded the monastery of Hurley, in Berks. lie was grandfather of tho first Earl of Sussex. This is what Domesday records of his possessions at Aultone, in the hundred of Waletun, Sur rey: "De his hid: ten: Wesmau vi Lid: do Goisfrido filio Count Eustoehij. Lane tra: ded: ei Goisfrid: do Slonnevil cu: lilia sua." I read, "Of these hides, Wiseman Lolds six hides from Godfrey, son of Count Eustace, which land Geoffrey de Slandeville gave to him with Lis daughter." If there is faith in records, this must refer to Godfrey of Bouillon; aud tho gift is evidently a marriage portion. It is curious to note the identity of Godfrey aud Geoffrey. Both names are called Goisfrid. The hundred of Waletun corresponds, I be lieve, with the modern Wellington; but I am not aware if Aultono has been traced. Tho survey was finished in losis. The hero of "Gci'iisalemmo Liberoto" was born about KHIO. In 10S1 ho was fighting in Germany for nnd against the Emperor Henry the Fourth, who married Lis sister Praxeda, started on tho crusade lo'.iti, reacLed Jerusa lem low, died 1100. History is silent about this marriage. I ON VEST SCHOOLS. Willi! In Now Thought of Them. The Vienna J'ress w rites as follows: The agitation aroused by tlio outruire tit the Carmelite Convent of Cracow is continually In creasing, and it causes all other cutims to be forgotten. The measures which the munici pality of Vienna propose to take, and which the iniiiucipaHiy of Cracow have already taken, will not stand alone. We learn that oilier munici palities tire about to make the same manifesta tions, anil their resolutions, supported by public meetings held for that purpose, will stremrilicu the Government in its onward course, anil ulti mately bestow upon tho country a law upon the convents in harmonv with tho principles of the new Constitution. I'ho fact has been demon strated by experience that at least three-fourths of the novices of the different religious orders are recruited in the convent schools. In thtjsu schools the directors first of all c:it their glances upon the pupils whoso disposition, talents, social position, and means, may ulti mately render them useful members of the order; and with the resources of all kinds placed at their disposal by a system of dura tion skilfully planned for that purpose, thev operate upon these young minds, and gradually lead them by gentie" pressure to the great act df the renunciation of the world. It is principally in the nunneries that these niannHivres tire practised. Very few nuns are to be found wlo have not passed through a convent school be fore einbrocinir the religious life. These educa tional establishment, therefore, should be the first dealt with if the Influence of the convents is to be curtailed; and it is above all the system of education of young girls in Austria that must be reformed if tho pernicious and deplorable competition it meets with in the girls' school-, of the convents is to be neutralized. Poor Carlotta had enough method iu her madness to smash a bust of L. N. b. at Laeken. Mr. C. C. llazewell.of the Boston Traveller, is an early riser. He finishes his day's work at 7-30 A. SI.

Tho Gazette thinks the people Lave Lad tVO much of. the pasteboard gentlemen. MONT (EMS. The Rntlvray and the Tiinnrl. A European correspondent writos as fol lows: '1 he railway is not so curious, nor is the mountain scenery so superlatively grand, as to draw the tourist from the Simplon, St. Gothard, St. Bernard; much less from tho Splugen passes. But the making of this road, and tho boring and burrowing now in pro gress under tlio Alps for its completion, in connection with tho struggle of commerce and capital, men and notions for short com munications among each other and to opnn tho Orient; this itiswhiehgivestoSlotitOeuis and to Italy, just now, a commanding com mercial and human interest. Since I Lave been abroad the Pacific Rail road has beenlinished. I have read of the cere monials. The silver hammer and tho golden spike; the lyric poetry and the pious prayers all is over. Trains are running (including my friend George Francis) with irregular re gularity from ocean to ocean. A fow men aro modo very rich, and the poor government has an unfailing source of political scrofula till sho " sells out" her interests. But it is a great thing. I do not underrate its influence, either as a highwoy connecting remote parts of our oun country, or through tho interior, which it v ill develop, much less as a link in tho great Asiatic chain of commerce. Indian, Slormon, mineral, metallic, and military "stroll! box" and weak-kneed questions all of interest to us, a nation, stride before tho mind, as it calls up tho grand completed en terprise. Two-thirds of tho urea of tho Union is locally affected by it, but all of tho Union and all the world ore affected by its relations to exterior commerce. How that road was built the grants of land and gangs of work men of "rings" and picks, troubles and ties, bonds and rails, speculations and spikes, saloons and spades, gamblers and galleries, corruptions and locomotives, which have been instrumental in setting in motion what some one has called this "Hell on Wheels," is a matter I only glance at, to contrast with tlio work, aim, aud object of the Slont Cenis Railway and its forthcoming tunnel ! Both roads have one object, viz. : a short route to the East. It is the old dream of the Portuguese and of Columbus the path to Cathay, the road to wealth, the fabled, un counted wealth of the realm of Prester John ! Slont Cenis is a big barrier; and when pierced with its tunnel it will bo a gigantic link in tho great chain of commercial commu nication around our globe. That we all can see. Going from Western Europe to tho East, ono must cross tho Alps, or go around them by land or water. If you go via Mar seilles by land there is a railroad link yet to be made from Monaco to Gcuou, though tho carriage road tho Comiehe is one of the finest in tho world. If you steam from Slarscillcs eastward, you lose in time. If you travel through the Straits of Gibraltar, with even tho canal at Suez open, more timo still is lost, compared with railroad travel. If the Marseilles route were complete by rail, there would still bo an inconvenient angle, a great deflection from a right line drawn from Lon don and Paris to Alexandria, in Egypt. I make Alexandria tho objective point for tho present. It will bo so, especially if Suez is successfully opened on tho line eastward, for many years, until the Turkish roads aro built to connect the Austrian lines with those run ning into Asia. When that is done our 1'iirijir Too (lx lose tin ir prtxtiyt, and tho question of speediest transit over Europe and Asia is settled in favor of tho Turkish routes. L'ntil then Slont Cenis Las but ono competing route eastward as tho shortest and best that is, tho route over the Alps, not far from Innspruek by the Brenner pass. Running southwest from England or Osteud as for as Slunich, it then runs south to Verona, and thoneo by a not very straight lino to Ancona; and thence to Briudisi, on tho east coast of Italy, which is tho terminus also on Italian soil of the Slont Cenis route. From Brindisi you have scarcely four days of voyaging to Suez. You may now reach Alexandria, cither by Cenis or Brenner, in seven days or less, from Paris or Loi.don. When tho Slont Cenis tunnel is completed, will it not, by enhancing the safety of travelling ond reducing tho time, make this route tho most available? Cer tainly for France, Belgium, and most of Ger many it will bo so ; and why not for Eng land ? When tho tunnel is made, Puris'is sixteen hours of Turin, and less than six days from Egypt and Suez. To America tLe infant Hercules rejoic ing in Lis strengtL, overcoming the Sierras, and rushing with tho scream of the locomo tive over paths where the snows never melt and, at this time especially, a sketch of the Mont Cenis Pass, and something of its histo ry, may not bo unwelcome. Tho railway, when completed, will not pass under but near Slont Cenis proper. The pre sent railroad follows very nearly tho old post road, built by France, which may be consid ered as connecting Chombery with Turin; though the ascent of the railway does not begin fairly till yu reach St. Sliehel. It ends on tLe Italian side atSusa. It is eighty-three miles from Chombery to St. Sliehel ; from St. Sliehel, by Modane (where the tunnel begins), to Suso, it is fifty miles. It is all done by daylight. The tunnel is about eight miles. It ends on the Italian side, at Bardonneehe. DRUGS, PAINTS, ETO. JOEEKT SHOEMAKER & O O. N. E Corner rOURTII and RACE Sta.
