REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.—The State convention of Republicans which assembled in
Sacramento last week nominated the following ticket: Governor, Edward Stanley, of San Francisco; Lieut.
Gov., D. W. Cheesman, of Butte; Controller, L. C. Gunn, of Tuolumne; Treasurer, Leland Stanford, of
Sacramento; Attorney General, A. A. Sargent, of Nevada; Supreme Judge, Nat Bennett, of San Francisco;
State Printer, F. B. Murdock, of San Jose. This ticket is one of the very best so far as the character and
ability of the gentlemen composing it are concerned, that has ever been presented to the people of the
State.

of last week, and robbed of money, clothing, &c.

FRIDAY, JULY 24, 1857.
CIRCUS.—Lee & Bennett of the Great North American Circus, give one of their splendid and
popular entertainments tomorrow evening. The style, quality and extent of these performances cannot be
excelled in the line by any company in the State. There are five female performers in this Circus. The
ground for exhibition will be in the rear of Harrington & Patterson’s on Pine street.
