INCREASE OF SALARIES.
The subject of compensation to
the heads Of Bureaus and officials
holding positions OF responsibility,
and requiring ability and character
to Gil properly, is one to which your
sss-.Aian-is invited. But few oil the
officials receive o cOmpuuuuss-~Aa.aaI
to the respectable support of q fami-
~, while their duties are such as to
involve millions. In private life,
services demand compensation equal
to the services rendered, and wise
economy would dictate the same rule
in the Government service.

The ApportiOnm ent Bill.

Mr.. Davis, the Democratic State Senator
the Senate Committee on the Apportion-
ment Of the State into Senatorial and Rep
resentative districts, for the next seven
years. as provided for in the Constitution,
has made report, and the bill was taken
up, considered and discussed il the Senate
on last Tuesday. The bill as reported pass
ed one reading by strict party vote. This
bill makes senatorial District out of Cam

Why lis author should so misunderstood the
geography of Cambria and Elk counties is a

com merciaily or socially, between the coun-
ties of Cambria and Elk, than there is
between Somerset county and Bradford. We
intend to examine Mr.. Davis bill more fully
before cur next issue, and then to express
our views in reference to the propriety of
its passage The bill allows, as is fair and
honest, one member to Cambria county.
We Intended also this week to refer to Mr..
Buckalew's bill for slecting delegates to the
proposed convention to amend and reform
the Constitution of the State, but will defer
anything we may have to say Oh the subject

When Charleston was under the FIRE of
Northern cannon, during the late rebellion, q
hospital for the reception and care Of orphan
children OF both coiors, under the manage
ment Of the Sisters of Mercy. was partially
destroyed. The lady who was at the head of
this charitable institution came to Washing
ton with petition signed by all the officers
and hundreds of private soldiers of the Union
army after they had taken possession of the
city, who had been kindly cared for by
these benevolent and self sacrificing angels
Of mercy, and presented it to Thaddeus Ste
vens. Mr.. Stevens, who had a sympathizing e
and benevolent heart, took the matter in
/ charge, and with the aid Of Mr.. Dawes, Of
/ Massachusetts, carried a bill through the
House apFTopTiatiDg the sum Of f,CentY thou
sand dollars. for the purpose of repairing
/ the damage done to the hospital. On the
very last day Of that session, when the bill
was called up in tie Senate, by Mr. Sawyer,
one Of the Senators from South Carolina,
Ischariah Chandler, of Michigan, and Jas.
W. Nye. Of Nevada, spoke against the bill
up until the hour Of adjournment, and thus
defeated it. The same proposition was be-
fore the Senate On last Saturday, the day Of
final adjournment, and was again eonsid-
cred Oh motion Of Mr.. Sawyer, and was de-
feated by the same dishen0rable process. If
this was not meyi.oyio9s case, then there

certain seasons OF the year.
Some Of the communists had good stuff in
them in strictly material sense. A young fe-
low was seized at the Auteuil entry for carving
ammunition to the lederate gunnerS, and SEN
fenced to be shot at once. Seven balls struck
him, and he fell scnseless, but a soldier seeing a
slight movement put another through his head

perimeutcd until he had restored him tohealtb

obliged to go before the Versailles court-martial
again.
Alexander Cockbun, who represents Great
Britain in the arbitration at Geneva, is quite a
different sort OF character from his American
associate, Charles Francis Adams. Learned as
a lawyer, profound rs statesman and iurist
he has the fieXibiity and delicacy Of an Ameri-
can, as the American in this negotiation has the
severe dignity and slow movement of an English
man. When at the bar he was famous for his
management OF stupid, obdurate and tricky Wit
nesses, and for the thorough manner in which
he Identified himself with his Client. He was as
much the actor as the advocate; and his powers
IN the double line were thus celebrated once by
Douglas JerrOld: Il my time / have heard Sir
Alexander in pretty nearly every part. | have
heard him as an old man and an old woman. I
have heard him when he has been shin run
down at sea, and when he has been an oil fac
tory in state Of cOnhagratiOn. Once when |
was foreman Of jury, | saw him poison his
most Intimate friend, and another time he did
the part Of pi0us bank director in a fashion
that would have skinned the eyeids Of Exeter
hail. He is not bad as desolate widow with
nine children, of which the oldest is under
eight years of age; but, if ever | have TO listen
to him again. should like TO see him as young
lady Of good connections, who has been seduced
by an officer Of the guards.
