Governor Powers arrived in this city,
Monday morning. with the intention OF
being present at the departure of the
Maine troops for the South, but like
many others who visited the city dur
ing the day, he was doomed to disap-
pointment.
Shortly after dinner he drove to the
camp, and presented the officers of the
heavy battery with their commissions.
He also presented Chaplain Estabrook
with his commission. This completes
for the present the commissioning of
the Maine troops.

day, beginning at 10 a. NJ. The session
will not be a long one, as there are but
