Postmaster Authorized to Receive Applications; New Advantage
 Offered at Annapolis.

No, Postmaster S. J. Nicholson is not going around hitching up his trousers and shifting his wad of chaWin' tobacco from one cheek to the other, but he is, from this day, prepared to receive applications for positions in the United States navy
 Postoffices all over the United States have been made bureaus at which applications for membership in the navy may be secured. Blanks and posters arrived yesterday for the Phoenix postOffice, so that now all who desire to join may get their start without travelling to the waters edge
 A big enlistment is being promoted. It has several new features, among which the most important is the pro- vision that certain applicants who pass certain examinations are to get an opportunity to enter Annapolis to be trained for Officerships. This ad- vantage has never been offered in this way before. It is said to mark the beginning of less rigid and eX- elusive rule regarding promotion in the navy. All applicants are to be sent through the naval training schools.
