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.

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

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

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

Wheeling, W. u , Deceinui'r IS.
For several years the people of Marion

been subject to the depredut'n n of a re
uulurlv organized band of rubbers, who
styled themselves the "Friends JJroth

headquarters in the mountains six miiex
from W infield, the county scat ot Put

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
