tain. The officers are making the drills
as pleasant as it is possible for them
to do. Two Of the batteries went out
for drill, and took march SO that the
same old scenes would be changed.
Battery D went into the woods, and
there rest Of half an hour was taken.
They were out long time over the
regular drill hours, but not protest
was made, as the drill was pleasing to
the men.
No definite arrangements have yet
been made for the men of either the
batteries or the regiment to go to
their homes, Monday. to vote.
Major Newcomb will let those Of his
command who live near Augusta, go to
their homes on a 24-hour furlough in
reasonable numbers. should they care
to assume the expense of paying their
fares for the purpose Of voting.
Arrangements are in progress to let
the members of the LIST Regiment go
on similar conditions.
The Journal has received some let
tiers and calls from privates in the bat
teries expressing desire to be muster
ed out of the service. There appears
to be no doubt but what a number Of
men in the LIST Regiment would be glad
of an opportunity to remain in the SER
vice and battery men who wish to be
mustered out feel that their places
could easily be filled with well-drilled
men from this source.
We are inclined to think that men
who have good excuse for leaving the
service at this time, such as the neces-
sity of supporting parents or families,
would not find the officers unreason-
able in endorsing their applications for
transfer. Such places could doubtless
be filled with good men from the LIST
Regiment.
We imagine that all these matters
will adjust themselves, and that, with
the pressure for service that will come
from men of the various commands
mustered out, no man whose circum-
stances are such as to render it spec
tally burdensome to himself and others
will be compelled to remain in the ser
vice.

A game warden who has been on a
trip through the southern portion of
Aroostook county. reports the signs OF
deer and moose in that section as very
plenty. He says that where two years
ago no moose were to be seen, many
OF them are now in the woods.
He also says that the signs of Carl
bou are scarcer than ever. The scar
city of this animal is much talked
about and many causes are assigned
for it's deserving the State, where
there used to be so many. Some au-
thorities upon the subject Of game are
inclined to believe that the feed in this
State is becoming such that they go
elsewhere. because enough is not fur
nished by our feeding grounds. 1t is
well known that they eat MOSES and
the like. and this explanation may be
good one.

Adjutant General Richards and Col
onel E. C. harrington. who attended
the funeral of Major r. r. Ulmer at
Rockland, Thursday. say it was one of
the most impressive funerals held in
this State in long time. The crowds
about Rockland were immense. The
streets were crowded all day, and the
funeral ceremonies were also largely
attended.
The hospitality of the Rockland peo-
pie toward the battalion of the 1st
Regiment acting as escort, was Of the
largest sort. A dinner was
served at the armory to the 265 officers
and men who attended, and after the
funeral lunch was served so the SOL
diers did not suffer from want Of food.
1t is estimated that 1000 people were at
the station when the troop train de-
parted.
The conduct Of the men was the most
exemplary. All not only behaved
themselves, but they made SO good an
appearance in the ranks. that many a
Civil War veteran remarked: What a
fine lot of men they are"
