MM. HI Uinrv A. Parsons, Jr. . Editor THURSDAY. DEOBMBER 23 1376. The Deinouratio leaders have loudly proclaimed for roaoy years that govern ment salaries ought to bo reduced one half. Tho party has just given places to about a hundred and fifty persons iD the liouie of representative, whose salaries range Iroui eight thousand a year to seven hundred and fifty dollars 'or the scseioD. We shall now seo how much honesty there was in their reform pretensions. Harrisburg, Dee. 13. Attorney Gene-il Lear is now fujly installed in his office, and is buily engaged in the active discharge of his official duties. It is understood in legal circles here that the appointment of Attorney Gen eral was made with the understanding that the appointee takes up his resi dence in Harrisburg, to be here con stantly at the call ot the Governor, like the Secretary of the Commonwealth, Adjutant General, Superintendent ol Public Instruction, and other officials. Since the time ot Mr Meredith, the Attorney Generals have not resided in Harrisburg. That distinguishe J gen tleman did not, during bis six years, absent himelt from his office more than two days at any time, but was as punctual in his office hours as any sub ordinate clerk. His immediate succes sors were tiot ns diligent, it being no unusual thing for Attorney Generals who followed him to be absent from the office for weeks some of them even months, leaving the business in the hands of the Deputy Attorney General It is now understood that Mr. Lear will reside permanently at Harrisburg, to be always near tl e executive departments, lor the counsel which all beads of de partments constantly require. Since the passage of the law, allowing five per cent on all collections made, the salary and tees of the Attorney General will aggregate from 89,000 to 812,000 per annum, nearly equal tothat of the Gov ernor of the Commonwealth, with no expenses attached in the way ot living It was evidently contemplated when the liberal fry was annexed to the office that the Attorney Genetal should reside at the capital.

IWRID IB HIDING IN KOHTII WK6TERN PtCNNSVLVANIA A 8KN tsATIONAt, ITEM OF NEWS PRO BABt.Y A CAR1ARD. The Titusville Courier of last week publishes the following sensatio lal item. There is probably not a word ol truth in the matter, but being hard up for an item ol news we publish it: There are many theories put forward as to the hidiug place ol Tweed. Some think he is in Canada; others that he is well on the way to Europe, and sinte profess to balicve that ho is still in New York city, hiding among soma of his trusty, friends. Another theory, is now advanced, and that is that he is in Northwestern Pennsylvania. It is now a well known fact, that two detectives arrived in this city on Saturday night last, from New York. The nature ot their business was discovered by acci dent. It is now thought by par, its in New York city that he left there for Philadelphia when he escaped, that ou his arrival at the latter city he was taken on tho night train over the Penn sylvania Northern Central and I'hil.dcl phia and Erie roads to Irviocton, and from thence went with a party of bis Iriends into the interior of Forest county, where a secure hiding place has been fouud for him or one that it. thought to be secure by his friends. It is one of the wildest and most inac cessible regions o! the state. It is said that Tweed is accompanied iu his re tirement by a band ol faithful adherents who will piss themselves off upon such inhabitants as they chance to come in contract with as hunters or land specu lators. The two dectives mentioned above, left here on Monday Inst, pro ceeded across tho Country to Tionrsta They will hero meet another party I roni New Yoik. and proceed on a jour ney of discovery into the wilds of Forest county.

Last week a citizen introduced himself to the band, pledged fidelity to the cause, and procured evidence ol th-'ir complicity in a large number of robberies and crimes. This iuiormation was communicated to the citizens ot WmGeld, who or ganized a rompany and started in pure suit ol rubbers, nineteen ol whom were cip'ured and lodged in ja'l.
