EDITOR News: - Your correspondent,
leaving Virginia yesterday afternoon on one
of the Pioneer coaches, was transported to
this city with elacrity and safety. Carson,
usually, is quiet spot, Astounding in good
looking women and early vegetables; but last
evening the town was filed with delegates
and acknowledging was INDUCED in at about
the same extent as "brandy and water" OF
course, the exciting topic of conversation on
the street is the probable chance OF the seve-
raj nominees who will appear before the Con-
vention. Although the friends of Blasdell
feel sanguine of his success, opine that
outside influence will be brought to bear that
NAV possibly Dust all previously named can
didatcs and place new name at the head oil
the list. Messrs. Chaplin, Winters and Iur-
nPr each have their friends, and 1t is shrewdly
suspected that some of the Estate dclega-
tion" from Storey county are more favorable
70 Winters than the lone ledgers are pre-
cisely pleased with.
OF course the selection of Supreme Judges
exercises 4 vast amount OF interest TO all
parties. \ general feeling seems to prevail
The Storey, Lander, Humboldt and Esmer-
aida delegation, that Judge Brosnan and
Judge Hall will be selected for two Of the
! number, while the third man is as yet even
unguessable-of the nomination OF the ABOVE
two gentlemen have hardly doubt, for
their friends are legion.
Humboldt claims the nomination OF J. 4.
Banks, for member OF Congress, and think
the claim is very generally conceded.
The nomination for Attorney General is
claimed by score Of legal lights OF more or
less brilliancy.
George Almond, OF Virginia, will make
strong effort for the Clerkship, in opposition
to Helm Of Ormsby, and Olney of Storey.
McChnton OF Esmeralda, and Youngs Of
the same place, are urged by their friends
for observation-disclosures.
c. II. Noteware, of Douglas, seems TO be
the favorite against Clemens, Of Ormsby,
and Daggett, Of Storey, for Secretary Of
State.
For Controller, Thomas Barclay, Of Sto-
rev, Waterman, Of Lander and Russ, OF
0rmsby, will make close fight.
For Treasurer, Hickock, Grier and Cross
man, OF Lyon, Rhodes, of ESmeralda, and
Gibson, Of Ormsby, are each urged by their
respective delegations as the coming man.
Marlette, Of Storey, takes the lead for Sur
veyor General.
Chestnut, Of Storey, and White, of Orns-
BY, are spoken Of as qualified to fill the office
of Superintendent Of Public Instruction.
Some two thousand gentlemen are aspi-
rants for the ancient and honorable position
of Sergeant-at-Arms, which think ends the
surmised list Of candidates now spoken OF.
AaUSEMESIS.
Carsonites were highly favored last even
| ing with concert BY Ossian f. Dodge and
Mr.. Hayward, which was well attended and
which gave universal satisfaction. Who has
not heard of Dodge, with his irrepressible
comicalities and sterling love of Union
Hayward is one Of the finest singers we ever
heard, and is not one whit behind Wambold
as balladist. We bespeak for them a
hearty welcome from the Union men Of
Storey, for they are deserving.
