At The time Of our goiBg 10 press last ever
lug no word had been received from Wash
iagton in regard to the ststnsof the postOflice
appointment for this town. The nOmina-
ton OF Mr.. Uhl has been tied up in the Sen
ate Committee On post0fiices for the past
three weeks and it was announced that final
action would be taken on the matter to-day.
II is presumed here that action was deferred
on account of the death OF Senator Vance.
John H. Uhl, and F. J. KO0ser, Esqs., left
for Washington early in the week to look
after Mr.. Uhls interests. Mr.. Peter Hefiisy
who has been opposing the confirmation Of
Mr.. Uhl, is also in Washington. The opin-
ion prevails both here aud in Washington
that M Uhrs nomination will be confirmed
by the Senate.

THE SCHOOL OF INSTRUCTION.
Colonel Kendall Speaks on the Reorgani.
cation of the First Regiment.

The military school of instruction
closed yesterday forenoon. 1t has been
verv prof table to all the officers of the
First Regiment, fol whose benefit it was
organized. Colonel Kendall ably pre-
sided. Wednesday evening, squads from
the three companies of Portland gave an
admirable drill at the armory.
Yesterday morning Colonel Kendall
spoke very highly of the proficiency
shown by the officers during the exami-
nations, an said the various companies
wer all financially well off. He believed
in having the four Portland companies
formed into one battalion, with a major
commanding, and thought it would be
eventually carried out. II the election
of a major were to be ordered now, he
had no doubt that the Portland officers
would agree upon a man.. They would
have done SO before if Captain Baker had
not refused to be candidate. IT this
battalion was formed, it would leave one
tull battalion of four companies and on
of three. Colonel Kendall says there
should be two more companies formed
in the state, one for each regiment; or
it would suit him better, and would
seem to be for the benefit of the militia
to have the Bath company transferred
to the First Regiment. 1t would make
fine battalion to include Augusta,
Bath, Brunswick and Rockand as one.
The Augusta company, which had been
in hard circumstances, is now on it's
feet and doing nicely. The Rockland
company, under itssspresent organization,
is we'll differed and managed, and the
same is true of that of Brunswick.
With the addition Of the Bath compa-
ny, which is in the same geographical
location, fine battalion can be made,
and two new companies for the Second
Regiment could be formed in the eastern
part of the state, where there is more
material for the purpose than in the
western part. This would leave Bidde
ford, Norway, Auburn and Lewiston for
another battalion, thus making a full
regiment, with thee majors, one in COM
mand of each.
