RsS Attorney General Hoar has
under consideration a question sub
mitted to him by the Secretary of the
Treasury and the Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue, says the National Re :
publican, whether an officer Of the
internal revenue can be allowed any
percentage in case of collection Of pen
aties for the violation of the revenue
laws. The matter has been before the
United States Circuit Court, which, by
diverse opinions, have left the point
still in doubt. The general opinion
among officials is that the officer is en-
titled to the fees where he is the in
formant, and large sums are dependent
on the Attorney Generals decision,
which is expected in few days.

A correspondent of ours says that the
Major Byron whose story was rehearsed
in st. Louis paper few days ago is
now residing at Arlington, France. The
Major entertains no doubt that he is a
veritable chip of the Byron block. and
seems to have had but little trouble in
convincing those who are most familiar
with him of the truth of his professions.
Our informant alleges that be has had
the privilege of gazing upon this mystic
rious Major, and that the assertion of
the st. Louis journal in regard to his
bearing remarkable likeness to the
portraits of the distinguished poet is en-
tirely correct. He further AYERS that
the Major is now preparing an elabor-
ate statement, sustained by documenta-
ny and other proofs, by VIII CHI he will
be fully able to substautiate bis claims.
