Judge Cheeves mentioned his first
,interview with eneral Jackson,
which was in Philadelphia. Jackson
was seated ntthe dinner table to tiuo
right of the Judge. They in couver'
r-ation, and his counAteoanoe Was re
rnarkably mild and pleabant. The
name s f iome one was mentioned with
whom Jackson had reeemly had an
alteretion. He turn-d his read
from the Judge to see who had mno.
tioned the hateful name. "When
he leooked again at me," said the
Judge, "his whole coutilenniee-i had
suddenly changed, and his face look
ed like it thunter cloud. Never be
fore had I witriw.'ed Po wonderftil a
change in the human countenance.''
Judge Cheeves wafs a great etudent
and most labormnos man whitt at -t-e
bar. No lawyer at -the 8.,ith C-troli
na liar ever had such a prautoe be
fore or since. I heard him once say
thr.t it yielded him t-rcn'y thou.and
dollars per antm:n. 11; stid ho oe
gan to throw oil' his basiness long be
loro he was evuted to Coigress.
Then he transferred the whole of i:
to General Robert Y. laynle, - who
had read law with himt, and hasd just
been admitted to the bar,
Judge liuger, who was a gr, at a,!
mirer of Judge Chteeves and st ongl,
attached to him as a frier.d, told me
in 1828 that his (Cheeve..) father was
a not'ted Seitch Tory and Itidian
tradcr -in Abbevillo Distriet, S. C.,
during the Revoltiionary war. lie
moved front A bLeville, where Judge
Cheeves wias born, to Charle.,ton,
after the cptnite (f that ei'y by the
Brit ish. Ile kept a little sbop on
Sullivan's I'laned at'l afterwattds in
Eliott street. ''he atdge was a la

Ildase one day lie was attraeted by
the clear, stentor:an voice of Chancel
lor MarIial, wi was arguing a case
in coirt. 14e sitopped and li.stened
to the speech, and determinaed to be
cotne a lawyer hiiself. The next
d ay he went to M ar'Aina " oftice, told
ihun11 who he wa-, aned asked perria
sion to read law with hiin. I. jr many
years alter lism admiis-sio- to the bar
his practice was very limited, Ile
had too nuch honesty, said Judge
li tger to manage a bad cuse -i and
the expression was a coimton one it,
Chat leston, "if 3 ou have n good ecse,
employ Cheeves, but if you h:tve u
bad one go to Drayton. ' No one
Imkust infer from thi,, however, that
Colonel Drayton was not a gentle mtn
of the highest honor and p arobt lnteg
rity. In this te ieCt he hal no bupe

finishing his lecture lie picked up

aenid, "it does not become sine, how.

was welt acquainted with my ardent

eloquence and ability I When they
heard of.our first hard victory they
were so much elated, 8.1d Judge
Cheeves, that, like slchool boys they
sprang ip, and iu the excess of their
j->y danced a four-haided reel I On
the bench Jndge Cheeveas wis distin
gui'hod for his learinag and ability,
and it i.4 to be regretted that he re
signed his steat the're for the Presiden

great intellectual endowments wouldJ
have added lustre to the Soeth Caro

cidous of the court of the highebt au

In the latter part of his life he be,
cane self-indulgent and inert. Il
seeined to withdraw fromi ecciety ant
the world. His noble intelleet lie
came impaired by ago. In co'nclusion
I will May that South Curlitina ieve
