NOMINATION FOR SUPREME JUDGE
Upon this subject the Maliposa Demo-
crat, a Lccompton paper, Of the 5th of
August, says The most important duty
before the Convention, as affecting the
welfare of the people residing upon the
Fremont claim, and upon other claims
of like kind in the State, is the nomi-
nation of Supreme Judge. Foremost
among the aspirants to the Office is Jos.
G. Baldwin, who has expressed himself
in decided terms in favor of Fremont
pretensions. 1t is to be hoped that for
this reason Baldwin may be selected as
the nominee; though, as a Democratic
journal, we would feel bound to offer no
opposition should he receive the nomi-
nation, while on local grounds we could
not consistently give him our support"

ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH CABLE.-The
late steamer brings the unwelcome
though not unexpected information that
the attempt to lay the great cable had
proved unsuccessful. Three efforts were
made, but owing partly to boisterous
weather and partly TO other causes, a
failure ensucd. Mr.. Field, the protector
of the enterprise, is still sanguine that
it can be accomplished, and proposes to
make the third trial to connect the con-
tinents. The project is treated by some
as chimerical, but the principal electric
ians of the world favor it. and have sue
ceeded in making their views plausible
enough to enlist large sums in the un-
dertaking from capitalits. We believe
science is capable of doing anything,
and expect to see the day, and far dis
tant neither, when the NEVADA JOUR-
