'' Another important consideration with us is,. the great popularity vvluch Mr. Crawford has for many years enjoyed with those lem(tcratic citizens who were best qualified bj talent and opportuni ty, to juda:e of jhis .character. Ever since his first appearance in the Senate he has beeti one ot the most .popular -and leading; men in tjie nationvwith the mem bers of Congress. ; He. might probabl v have obtained the Caucus nomination in 1816, had he con sent err to. accept of it ;' and he would . doubtless- have been nominated, by a general caucus last win- had there. been such an one held, lie is the first choice of about! thirty mem : hers who did not attend the' caucus; and the second choicecof a great num ber more. - This popularity has given rise to the charge, against him of being an intriguer. But the character of ma ny of his friends refutes the charge. . Can it be supposed that JeiYerson; Mad ison, Macon; Giles, Randolph, Gover nors Pennington andDickersoh of New Jersey, and a host of former members of Uongress.wno nave retireu iroiu puuue life, and who Have nothing 1 to wish or hope . from the . next' administration can it De supposeu. tnat. uiese own. are corrupted by intrigue ? 'VVe believe Mr. Craw fonl has more disinterested support than any other candidate. . The opposition to him may be traced to three causes : first, dislike : to his political principles in those who xies pise the.po, licv of the last twenty vears : secondly. seeiioual feelings, and j thirdly, hupp of ofiices Aom the success of the, other ' r uulidates, indulged in by their person- id -Jnencls. , i vv AVe have p irtaken in the opposition (if Mr. Crawford as the candidate of a Caucus, being moved thereto principal t V iv by tiie consideration, tliat districts ' wliiclr send federal lmemher9 have no' renresentatives in the Caucus.

They ask no more than they award to others, the freedom td opinion. They urge no man thev ap- and common charity claims of us to say that they believe uprightly, that Mr. Crawford is a plain', dignified and ingenuous republican ; that by the force of his extraordinary intellectual pow ers, he ha3 risen from an obscure on irm to oue of the -most elevated and responsible trusts within; the gift of his country ? that he is fitted, by ail the attributes of talent and experience, to discharge the duties of the hiirh station " wV,cn eX Ves,re ms lair elevation, that he wiU endeavor al ways to advance tnejparamount interests ot the country; r ; We :al! think ith and that he will unite, perhaps morefirm t() $e boxin'Mhe tnan any tiier individual, the teelings dim nm iesis ui me uernocranc party. uu uicy not possess me common pri vilege of citizens to hofd, and if they please, express this' belief ; so long as they do hot impugn the motives of men l.

This, if we know the friends of ' Mrl Crawford, is their be lief and determinarion. . Is it not fair, and is it not republican ? is it nt any thing but the attempt with which they are charged ? Men view things, antf their results, through -different ' medi urns. It is among tfiose onlv whose republicanism lies upon the surface, that the pretence is m ule to an exclu sive regard for the people, an exclu sive capacity in their Candidate!, and an exclusive mrntenance of his .preten sions.1 iv The subject might be pursued fur ther, and it rniht be enquired, why it is that the calumnies and the inven tions of men have been directed to wards Mr-Craw ford almost exclusive ly ?
