Uniform Of the .Miktia.-The Order of the
Commander in Chief, prescribing the uniform
of the militia of this State, we have given at
length in this paper. Some of its provisions,
we understand, are already considered as of
doubtful construction; and, in some instances,
officers have experienced much embarass-
ment as to the course to be pursued. We have
given it no other attention than such as has
been directed to particular parts of it, by
comments in other papers. That part of the
order, (the 9Th paragraph which relates to
the uniform of the non commissioned officers
and privates of Infantry, is of general interest,
as it affects the largest portion of the militia,
and, for aught we see, has immediate opera
tion-the order being Prospective only as
it respects 6 officers, voluttser corps, brigade
bands or other musicians, who are now uni
formed.''
So far as can be judged from the descrip-
tion of the uniforms of the various corps, they
will be neat, appropriate, and as economical
perhaps, as could be expected. After all,
however, many are disposed to doubt the adj
vantage Of measure which may ere long
prove to have been unnecessary, by reason of
a material alteration of the present militia
system. Should that system be so far altered
as to require the great mass of the militia to
be merely armed, equipped, and annually IN
spected, the people will have incurred an ex-
pense under the present order, which they
may wish had been avoided. That such a
change may take place seems not entirely
improbable.
1t is said, there is some doubt whether the
order will be fully obeyed. Company of
infantry in Newburyport have voted not to
wear "pomapons - and it has been suggested
that there is no way to compel private of
Infantry to comply with the order, inasmuch
as there is no penalty prescribed, in any law,
for neglect of its requirements. Whether
this be SO or not, the case is different with off,
GERS and with volunteer corps. The former
must comply with all legal orders; and the
latter are bound, under a penalty, to wear
whatever uniform may be prescribed.

SPANISH CLAIMS.

The board &C Commissioners. on Satur'
day. at the motion Of one OF the counsel
appointed Monday, the Gath inst. finally
to determine the question as to the recep-
ton Of claims arising from breach OF con-
tract with our citizens by the government
of Spain. 1t will be remembered, that
the Commissioners little before the close
of their last session, addressed letter 10
the Secretary of State, the object OF which
was TO ascertain the intention OF the high
contracting parties with regard to these
particular claims. The reply of Mr.. A.
dams reduced the Commissioners to the
unpleasant alternative of violating the good
faith of the United States, or OF deciding
contrary to their own construction OF the
treaty: they did not of course, hesitate to
sacrifice their own opinions, and accor-
dinghy intimated to those concerned, that
their only reason for delaying to enter
these claims on their docket, as rece:ved,
was the promise which they had given to
hear the arguments ofthe adverse counsel.
Under such circumstances, however, vt ap-
pears to us that all argument would be su-
perhuous.
We understand that the Board also
made known on Saturday the general
course of proceeding which they had a
dopted for the present session. They
will go on with the examination of all the
original and supplemental memorials filed
in pursuance of their last order, and then
proceed to set dozen for examination &C
cording to the rule OF the Board, the claims
which have been siir months received. 1t
is important, therefore, that claimants
should be ready with their documents, as
we learn that no additional proof will be
admitted after claim is once set down
for examination, unless the most satisiacto'
ry reasons are assigned tor the delay.
