WASHINGTON. June B.-Ihet Gresident
made large number of appointments to-
day. but there was nothing on the list tor
either Virginia or North Carolina. Many
changes in postmasters Of the presidential
class were announced. but they were for
States other than those named. In

that nearly half Of the retiring Republican
pQstmasters were removed, but 1t IS said
2 kt charges affecting the conduct OF their
fhces were preferred: otherwise tney
would not have been ousted 80 soon.
NO RECOMMENDATIONS.
Mr.. r. Il. Glenn. the newly-appolnted
Attorney for the Western District OF North
Carolina, has been IN New York for the
past several davs. 1t Ia not yet known
whom he will recommend tor the position
of assistant attorney. Quito number OF
candidates have sprung up, ana they all
seem to be such good and worthy mcn
that Mr.. Glenn will probably be considera-
bly, puzzled in deciding on gentleman to
recommend TO the Department of Justice
for appointment. -, a.
MIR. A. j. Montague. of Danvllle, the
new ATTORNEY for tho Western District or
Virginia, has not yet made his recon-
mendation for his assistant, either. IL ls
presumed that this place will go to the
1885, but II would not necessarily have TO
20 there again but for the belief that the
President has let drop several remarks
which would indicate his preference IN
the matter. 1t il understood that he
thinks the assistant attorney should DO
given TO the Ninth District because the
collectorshIp and marshalship are TO be
given TO candidates III other portions OF
the State.
Captain Fudge. of Marion. is one of the
gentlemen who has been mentioned IN
connection with the assistant attorney
ship, and there are others, but their names

Congressman Alexander says that be was
told at the Post Office Department today
that for some days yet the northern ana
