I assure you, that whenever the regularly nominated candidates were even wtiected, they were opposed, and, in almost every instance, defeated.' That -there are a majority of regular nomina tions elected, no one doubts ; but where they were not opposed and difea ted, it was because they were known to be unfriend ly to Mr. Crawford. Of course, there was no necessity to oppose most of the nominations. I assure you, and you may. note down the assertion, that there wilL not be twenty Jive Crawfordites in our next Legislature.
