LOCAL MATTERS.

THB NONESATIONs.-The voting for candi-
dates in the Convention, on Saturday. com.
menced about the time our paper went to press.
consequently we were not able to give the re-
snrt ia our issue Of that day. A. C. Niles,
Esq, was nominated for County Judge by ac-
slamatiOn, there being no opposition. The on
ay candidates put forward for Senator we're ].
C. Birdscye and A. H. Murdock, and eO the
first ballot Birdseyc received 81 votes and Muir.
dock 4S. 1t was generality believed before the
vote was taken that it would be very close, and
both the friends and opponents of Birdseye
charged each other with buying up delegates.
Birdseye was bitterly opposed by a faction Of
the party, for some reason. we are informed,
connected with the U. S, Senatorshp. In the
canvas last year, he was rather lukewarm in
his support OF OfStanford, and that was the main
objection urged against his nomination. For
the Assembly, the Convention nominated Seth
Martin, OF Little York, w. II. Sears and Jas
Collins. of Bridgeport, and j. Il. Rule of Grass
Valley; and Mr. Joseph Worrell was nomiRa-
ted for Supervisor Of the Nevada District.
