THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 27, 1861. aarp age oan age Eie Siena For Governok.—From present appearances,.tbe nomination for Governor by the Fourth of July Convention, lies between John Convess and Hugene Casserly. Gov. Downey will bave a few votes, and several of the northern counties will go for Major Bidwell, Itis possible that the friends of Conness or Casserly, fiading it impossible to nominate their first choice, may cast their votes for Bidwell, aud thus give him the nomination, though he does not appear to have as much positive strength as either of the other two. Webave known Major Bidwell for many years, aud he is our first choice of those named in connection with the nomination. He is, perhaps, the most available candidate the Convention can place at the head of their ticket, and no man in the State would make a better Governor. Tux Revutse.—The Marysville Express calls the repulse of the Federal troops at Great Bethel, the “first battle aod the first defeat.” The Express seems to have forgotten that seventy Government troops were defeated at Fort Sumter, by seven thousand rebels, after a fight of thirty-six hours, and perhaps bas not beard of the surrender of fifteen huadred rebel troops at St. Louis, In conducting a campaign it cannot be expected, that in every little skirmish, success will iavariably attend one side, and we may expect that advance parties of Government troops will be driven back, not only ouce but many times, during the summer. Should the rebels even gain an important victory, it would only have the effect to prolong the contest, buat could make no difference in the final result. Tue Biockaps.—In the course of a recent debate in the House of Lords, on the American war, Earl Derby, the leader of the Tory pary, said it was not in the power of the Northern States, if their navy were three times as large as it is, to effectually blockade all the Southern ports, and this opinion seemed to be acquiesced in by members of the House generally. We do not know what England would now consider an effective blockade ; but at the time of the debate, American men-of-war were stationed at the entrance of every Southern port, rendering it impossable for merchant vessels to enter except at the risk of being suok, This bas heretofore been considered an effective blockade, and all that is required by the law of nations, Avpurn Greys,—This is the name of a military company lately organized at Au. bura.
