CONFIRMED
BY THE SENATE
Charles P. Harder Appointed Postmaster
at DanVille.

The question of the postmastership
i'll Danville which for a couple of
weeks past has been in doubt has ac-
cording to all accounts been at last set,
tied, the honor of the appointment fall
ing upon Charles P. Harder, Esq.
Mr. Harder was nominated to be post
master in Danville first on March Bird.
On the 10th inst. his nomination was
withdrawn from the Senate His nom
inatiOn caused great deal of surprise,
but scarcely more than the withdrawal
of his name by the President T. J.
Price, the incumbent, has served but 3
years of the four which are generally
considered as constituting postmaster s
term and every one was much puzzled
to understand what influences had been
at work to so nearly accomplish a
change
Interest in the matter yesterday morn
ing was revived in all its intensity by
an item appearing III the Washington
correspondence of several Philadelphia
newspapers to the effect that Charles p
Harder had again been nominated to be
postmaster at Danville. Many persons
held that this was final, while others be
lieved that the outcome would be the
same as in the former case and that Mr..
Price would be permitted to hold on to
the reins as postmaster.
The arrival last evening of the Con
gressional Record of March 1S put all
doubt at rest. In its columns the fact
was stated that on Tuesday the execu-
tive nomination of Charles P Harder
was received by the Senate as set forth
in yesterday mornings newspapers. An
other column stated that the nomination
of Charles P. Harder to be postmaster at
Danville, Pa, had been confirmed by
the Senate
