Rice, sound Republican, who has held the

To the Editor Of the Press:
The calm, pleasant, sunny day yesterday was
good index of the feelings of our citizens
here on entering upon the new era in national
affairs-the administration of Ulysses s. Grant
II was indeed day of pleasant, cheerful hope
full congratuatioD, such as we rarely see.
AsPIRANTs FOR OFFICE
Under the new administration have been
busy for some time past ip getting their "cards"
ready.
Hon. Hiram Ruggles, of Carmel, and Hon.
Abner r. Hallowell, of this city, are candi-
dates for the Office OF Assessor of Internal Rev
enue for this Congressional district now held
BY Hon. George P Sewall, of Oldtown, a
johnson man. Sewall is well known as a vet
eran politician, and don't often make the mis-
take of being ON the wrong side; but he has
"put his foot in it" this time, and must I'M
doubtedly adoff his hat" and make way for
either Mr.. Ruggles or Mr.. Hallowell, probably
the former.
Francis M Sabine, Esq, OF this city, is rec
commended, in petition signed by his numer-
GUS friends, for the position of Assistant Asses
scr IN this city, and will probably receive the
appointment
For the Office of Pension Agent located in
this city, Dr. S. B. Morrison and Lieut.. Elton
W. Ware, both of this city, are candidates. 1t
would seem eminently fitting that some disa-
bled soldier should hold this office. DR.. Morri-
son served as Surgeon in the I'd Maine, and re-
ceived severe injuries in the service. Liept
Ware served in the 9th Maine, was in the ser.
vice four years, the last year or more in a
rebel prison where he suffered everything but
death. He is young man, and eminently
fitted for the position. A petition in his behalf
has been signed by very large number of our
most prominent citizens, and it will be little
singular if he does not receive the appointment.
A paper has been in circulation and is heav-
lily signed by citizens for the appointment OF
