The Europsan War.

In another column we publish short synop-
sis of the most important intelligence received
from Europe. The dispatches are oil dated on
the 3Oth of April, and there is some dscrep
ancy as to whether the Austrian army bad
crossed the Ticino. small stream which di.
vides Lombardy from Piedmont. It is certain,
however, that about $4,000 French troops had
arrived at Genoa and other places in Piedmont,
and we're Fastening to join the Sandman army,
which is said to consist of $4,000 men. The
Austrian army on the frontier Of Piedmont
numbered 10000 men, according to the most
reliable accounts, which was about equal to the
French and Sardinian forces combined. The
latest ad dvices leave no doubt that the two ar
mics were concentrating their forces, and Of
they were but few days march from each
other IL is highly probable that bloody battle
was fought as early as the middle of May.
If the reported alliance between France and
Russia should be confirmed, England, Prussia,
and the small German states will inevitably be
drawn into the broil on the side Of Austria, In
order TO preserve the "balance of power.''
There Is every indication that the war will be-
come general throughout Europe; that It will
be more sanguinary and destructive than those
at the beginning Of the present century, and
that years will elapse before peace is again es-
tablished.

NEVADA, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8, 1859
THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEES.

At the head of our columns to-day, win be
found the names of the candidates for the Leg
islature and county officers, nominated by the
Democratic Convention which assembled at Ne
vada on Wednesday last. We do not deem it
necessary to write an extended biography Of
the several candidates whose names are upon
the ticket; for they are mostly old residents,
and we'll known to the people of the county as
good and reliable Democrats.
Mr.. Chase, whose name heads the county
ticket, was q member of the Senate for one
term, and il is universally admitted by those
who kept themselves posted on the legislative
proceedings, that he was an efficient and talent
ed member, aud devoted himself with untiriDe
energy and industry to the interests Of his con
stituents.
Messrs. Kent and Fem, the candidates foI
Sheriff and County Clerk, have long been &C
tive and efficient workers in the Democratic
ranks, and this is the first time their names have
been presented for the suffrages of their fellow
citizens They are popular with the masses,
and will receive such vote on election day as
will astonisb even their warmest and most san
guine friends. Mr.. Hupp, the candidate for
District Attorney. is an able lawyer. and every
way qualified for the position. He was for
mcrly Whig, but has acted with the Democ-
racy since the Wing organization was broken
I'D in 1855. With Mr.. Webster, the candidate
for Treasurer, we have no personal acquaint-
ance. He was unanimously endorsed by the
Grass Valley delegation, by whom he was
highly recommended. Mr.. Brennan, the pres
ent Assessor, is again presented for reelection
to that ONCE He has made an efficient officer,
which is oil that need be said 10 his praise.
Among the gentlemen whose names were
presented as candidates for the Assembly, the
Convention nominated Messrs. Adsit, Palmer,
O'Connor, Martin, and Pomeroy. They are
men of 6ne Abilities and three of them at least
are eloquent and forcible speakers, whose vol
ces will be heard during the approaching can
vass, and their influence felt in every part of
the county.
We regard the ticket, on the whole, as one
Of the best ever presented to the voters Of Ne
vada county. The nominees are men who think
and act for themselves, and will bring much
positive strength to the ticket; and whatever
the position of parties may be on the day OF
election, we have every reason to believe that
the Popular Sovereignty Democracy will carry
the county.
