Executive Mansion, Washington, May 17, 1863.

Ernest L. Kinney seeks the appointment of a 2nd. Lieutenant in the Regular Army. He has been five years at Churchill's Military School---not West-Point. He is a Lieutenant in the 54th. N.Y. Vols, and was assigned to Gen. Tyler's Staff last December, in which service he has continued till now, & still is. His regiment is about being disbanded by consolidation, & he fears being thrown out of service thereby. For this reason he seeks the appointment. He is a family relation of Senator Dixon of Connecticut.
