here recently among the members of on
militia company. The lieutenant of tn
company has allowed their armory to be b
used for dancing hall, which is contrar,
to the military rules and yitiates the in
surance policy. The captain proteste
against the action, but without effect, an
finally resigned his commission. Col. I
S. Peck and Gen. l.. G.. Kingsley remon
strated with the lieutenant, and it is said
were insulted for their pains. Col. Peel
at last requested the lieutenant to resign
and Tuesday Gen. Kingsley came TO town
and put new lock on the armory door O
which the lieutenant will be unable to oh
tain the key. This will probably stop tn
row. NJ.
