RosEcRAYs AS A CASDIDATE.-In February
1863, General Rosecrans, received vote OF
thanks from the Legislature of Ohio. From hi
camp at Murfreesboro he wrote back long re-
ply, in the course of which he said: I" am
amazed that any one could think of peace on
any terms. lie who entertans the sentiment is
fl only to be a slave he who utters it, at this
time, is, moreover, Il traitor to his country, who
deserves the scorn and contempt Of all honorable
men," Rosecrans referred to the Democrats
and now he is their candidate. The Cincinnati
Enquirer at the time pronounced the letter 8 a
most disreputable episte," the production of
insignificant and disappointed politician" "
The Democrats must have changed q muchly -
in these four years to place Rosecrans now in
the forefront of battle Vhlandgham, who
spent part of day in the camp of Rosecrans,
and who was then sent across the lines, may
now take his revenge by voluntarily abandoning
the camp in which he again finds himself, ana
in waging war against it.-Ne'0 York CONNER

FAKE AND FREIGHr.-It seems to be pretty
we'll conceded now that the through fare for en-
igrants will soon be placed at $50 from New
York and about S3S from Omaha = the Two

of division on that scale. Freight charges on
fruit it is understood, will be five cents 10 CHI
cago and seven cents to New York. The first
car was loaded with fruit under the new ar
rangement at Sacramento on Thursday. About
ten tons were carefully arranged in the car, IN
cluding peaches, nec.arnes, apricots pears, ap-
piles, lines, pums, prunes, grapes, figs, and

being to determine what could and what could

Our Nominees,


We place at the head of our columns this week
the names Of our State and county nominees.
Hon. Lorenzo Sawyer and Hon. O. C. Pratt for
Supreme Judges are gentlemen whose legal abil-
ity and integrity are beyond question, and they
ought and will be warmly supported for these
reasons. The denomination of Judge E. Garter
was a compliment richly deserved by him. and
it will be found that he will obtain more than
a party vote. Hon. T. E. Jones, our next rep
resentatire to the Legislature, is well known
years ago, for the same position. He is gen,
tleman of considerable literary ability, forci-
BILE speaker, has had the benefit of one winter
experience at Sacramento, and will be trir mi pl-
antly reelected this fall. For Sheriff, J. r.
Balch is a strong man. Not another man in
Weaver basin could have poled his vote at the
recent primaries. Men like Balch are seldom
beaten before the people, and the Democracy
may jnst as well smoke that fact in their pipes
now. j. W. Phlbrook has been renominated
FOR Clerk. Philbrook has proved himself on apt
and obliging officer. 1t is not every one who can
act as County Clerk, and the people will always
gain by retaining honest, capable and obliging
officials. Philbrook is much the best man be-
fore the people, and they will proclaim him as
their choice. For District Attorney one of the
proprietors Of this paper has been renominated.
He hopes that the people will endorse bis official
course for the past two years by re-eecting him,
hu caid has to
in this connection. Peter Paulsen, our cand-
date for Treasurer, is good and popular man.
Straightforward and whole-souled in ali mat
tiers, as officer he has been Jealous and eff
citnt. To this all the business men of the
county and bis associate county officials can tes-
tify ]. G. Sanborn, nominee for Assessor is a
gentleman not generally known. He has been
warmly pressed forward by his friends, and
Lower Trinity will go for him without regard to
party. For Superintendent of Public Instruct
years principal of the grammar school Mt Wea-
verville. Mr.. Smith is eminently qualified for
exercising general supervision over the schools
of this county, having practical understanding
of the needs of teacher and pupil. W. H. Bach
elder, the nominee for Coroner, has, for four or
five months, been discharging the duties of the
office under appointment by the board of Super
visors. He is energetic, capable and honest,
and will leave the Tammany sachem far be-
hind in the race for the position. r. E. Martin
is endorsed by the Republican votes of Lower
Trinity for Supervisor from the third district
Our acquaintance with Mr.. Martin is too limited
for US to speak from personal knowledge But
we hear him uniformly well spoken of and as
qualified for the position. Altogether and indi-
Vidua!ly we have put up good ticket. We
have every confidence that it will be supported
BY the majority of the people.

THE Nsw CABLE.-The shore end of the French
cable was landed Friday evening, 2ad instant,
but it is said no message has been received from
Brest since the 18th instant. The Sacramento
Union says:
The French cable is the longest submarine
wire yet laid and it has been laid with skill,
precision and success, which make us marvel at
the felicity with which human effort succeeds in
accomplishing every victory it attempts over
natnral obstacles. The ease with which work
has been accomplished, once thought impossible
to achieve and childish to project, may justify
us in believing that whatever is useful can be
done. We venture to predict that within five
years We shall have another cable or two across
the Atlantic and two or three across the Pacific
so that the earth will be completely girdlrd by
electric currents subservent 10 mans will and
pleasure. This prospect is cause enough for
graduation. The success of the Valenta cable
Even il the French cable should prove speechless
we are certain that man is master of all the
means necessary to accomplish perfect success
The total length of this cable-shore ends and
all-is 1864 knots, and the weight, S.2i7 tons
Of this, the deep section is . 2,G43 knots long
and weighs 4,356 tons The two Valentia cables
together measure only 3, 749 knots-abont .874
each. The next longest is the Persian Gulf ca
BILE, measuring 1908 knots. The next is the
double cable from Malta to Alexandria, the two
measuring 2,254 knots--about l,l27 each The
other submarine cables of the world have COM
bined length of about 2,627 knots
The Great Eastern goes back to load at once
with another cable to be laid between Bombay
and Suez. The cost of the French cable, as it
now lies, is about 500 600.

SPAfS-THs WoLF AT TIE Door, The mis-
taken recTeancy of Prim and Serrano to the re-
publican cause in Spain is about to bring its
logical punishment. Don Carlos shows himself
prince of mach pluck and obstinacy. When
all the other branches of royalists wera simply
sneering at his Claims to the throne, be was
quietly organizing ard rallyng his friends, and
now, when be sees the democratic element COM
pletely hoored by and Disguised with the Mont
penser faction and the arrogance of Cottes and
Cabinet he shows himself at the head of lia sol
diers and adherents and challenges tbem to bat
tle They will have enough to do to defeat him.
They cannot, with any decency, call on the re-
pubicans for help. They viii rot get if they do
call. The republicans baye been as basely be-
trayed and as shabbi.y treated by the ambitious
military des2otsm which rules the Cortes as it
would be possible for the new candidate to the
throne TO treat or them. Moreover, this is
neither a foreigner mere parvenue pro-
tender to royalty. His great grandfather was
King of Spain; his grandfather was the lawful
King but cheated out os the throne bv the cote
rie Of ambitious men who favored Christina and
Isabella from the basest of motives. If it should
now chance that the expatriated Queen and her
Young nephew would agree to bury the old FAM
lily feud in favor of the latter, the strength of
Don Carlos is something hardly less than for
midable. To make the movement almost
of success he has only to ingratiate himself
with the apgere6 democratic element AoI Spain
and sincerely promise them better constitution
than that which the Cortes has thrust upon the
nation. Don Carlos has the prestige OF family
and youth and the highest and the most ancient
nobility on his side. lie is but twenty years
of age, and is said TO enlist from his friends all
the enthusiasm which is usually accorded to
youth. 1t would not be fer the good o. Spain
that this Bourbon should succeed the otler, just
expelled from the kingdom. The race is
out; not ia accord either in politics or religion
with the sentiments of mankind in the year
1869, and has erinced everywhere-in France,
Naples or Spain-a singular inapttude for gov
ernment and an abiding contempt for popular
rights. Yet, for all this, the part played by the
military dictators and their imbecile Cortes has
greatly increased his chances of success, not
withstanding the army-lS0,O 900 men-are in
the hands of his enemies s.-Sacramento Union.

The STARTING POINT OF THE PACIFIC Road
Attorney General Hoar has given an opinion, at
at the request of Secretary Boutwell,, on the
question whether the starting point of the main
line of the Pacific railroad, for which Congress
authorized an issue of fifty million bonds and no
more, is Omaha or the one bundreth meridian
The Attorney General holds that it is the latter,
and that the fifty million bonds subsidy applies
from that point through to the eastern line of
the Stateof California. The effect of this is to
give the whole line about one and a-half or two
millions more subsidy than it would otherwise
receive from Omaha to the California boundary.
Congress, it will be remembered, originally sub
sidized several branches, all to converge in a
main line at the one hundredth meridian.
