Mr.. JOHN NUGENT.-We notice, by the San
Francisco papers, that Mr. Nugent, editor of
the San Francisco Herald left his post, tem-
porarily, on the 5th inst, on a visit to the
East. We cannot youch for the purpose of his
mission but 1T has been suggested By gentle
men who have means of information, in the
premises that it is to make an effort with the
Administration and Congress, for the eStab-
iIshment, on a solid basis, of an Opposition
line of Steamers between New York and San
Francisco, by securing a division of the large
bonus now paid by Government to the P. NJ. S.
Co. and the transfer of at least half that pa
tronage to an efficient Opposition proposed to
be organized on this guarantee. If this be his
object, nothing could be more commendable.
and no one in the State better fitted for the
mission. He has justly won the distinction
of intellectual superiority to all political edi-
tors of this State; and though we do not un-
dertake the defence of his political views, as
against those who assail them, we unhesitating-
ly pronounce the attack which has been made
upon him in his absence, most unmanly, and
an injury to the dignity of journalism If in
tended to affect him here, it is cowardly-ifa at
ngton-contempti
